Thought you guys might enjoy this. Metzger Trucking is home to the the worlds most competitive truck, the Liberty Belle. The Liberty Belle is a 1976 Kenworth which is powered by a 1150 cubic inch, 4-turbo, water injected,QSK19 Cummins Diesel that produces 3,500 hp+ and 5,000lb-ft + of torque. At maximum power, the Liberty Belle consumes about five gallons of diesel in 300' (that's .05 miles/gallon) Pictures and a pulling video can be found here.

Actually, I'm not sure. I was fliping through the channels both times and never noticed what channel it was. But I have a suspision it was TNT or the history channel

I did. Great looking rigs for the pulls. I couldn't believe some of the Demo racing. Pulling house trailers around behind whatever and smashing them right up. Looked great watching somebody's car & trailer drive right thru another one. Crap all over the track. LOL
