WHAT?
NO NO NO NO Tell me it isn't so....
That engine is the only reason I would own a too-are-egg.
which sources?

You need to get out of California man. They are mostly warped.
SUV's are the shit mom drives to soccer and the store.
They are big cars that use lots of gas and roll over easy; they haul no
loads to speak of, or have no potential for same.
Trucks have a box you throw your stuff into and can pull a trailer if needed
at least.

By the weight thing I was getting at, the mann, scania, or whatever trucks
are actually kinda small compared to highway transport units here, what we
would call a truck comparable to the racing stuff in europe. Quite small
actually. Built for different scale of hauling.

Drag racing is fun.  Done for the challenge of hooking horsepower to the
track in a burst.  BTDT. it's okay, but stock car racing is more fun. Do
that now actually.  No offroad rallying here, which would be the best.
Exactly what relationship to real life does road course racing a big diesel
truck have :-), regardless of what continent it happens to be done on?  It's
for the FUN of it.

Whatcha doing in California?
