So I get bored here on the rig and surf youtube allot. I think we will all find this video pretty amazing. Drag racing semi trucks... loaded!!! Not sure where this is, American trucks, but not in the USA. Amazing video.

Seems to me the loads start around 100k. I think I'll watch the video rather than stand behind a jersey barrier with 120 plus thousand rigs zooming by.

Yeah, after I watched some more of those videos, I read the comments and saw it's in Quebec. Wish we had something like that here in the States. I'd go watch for sure. Some of those trucks sound like they have HUGE cams!!! Lope like a drag car. Amazing

Think the vette and the viper would have won- had the drivers known how to launch. Really bad reaction time by the vette.

Too bad we could not hear the sounds of all of that horsepower, just a bunch of screaming intelligible noise.

Love the trucks and show of awsome power though.
