Their blow-off valves are deafening. Their redline is like 2500, 12-18 gears, and they run like 40 psi.

40 psi is amazing. if those truck just didn't weigh like 10000 pounds unloaded. actually i have no idea how much they weigh, but its alot. just imagine havin to shift through 18 gears. they sumtimes have 2 reverse gears too.

My friend's cousin owns his own truck....The thing looks sick, its like a 2001 model, yellow.

He said that its a little known fact that truckers race their tractor trailers, which is kinda scary if you think about it. He said he got his up to 120 without a load, and 95 or so with a load. I've got no clue how long it must have took him to slow down.

first off those never get boring. it's been like 10 years and i still look forward to it..umm nevermind

we rented a truck from thrifty truck rental. it was a turbo diesel isuzu with the cab infront of the motor..interesting ride. i sat on the passenger side which was right on top of the turbo. it got real annoying after about an hour drive because 1 it was real loud and 2 the seat started getting warm. Oddly though after inspecting it all, the turbo and half of the motor was completely exposed to the elements. If it rained when it's hot wouldn't that crack or warp the turbo and motor?

depends how cold the rain is and what kind of a shock it has on the motor or turbo.... a couple drops will disenegrate instantly when hitting it... you would be surprised how a little rain could cooldown the engine and not crack a manifold.... as for your pornos im sure they are gloss coated and hardened like paper mache too...

They spray water on the brakes because they get so hot? That's how you can warp rotors pretty horribly...get 'em hot and go through a puddle...although, i guess, I don't know what they make their rotors out of or how thick they are...I'm sure they are amazingly thick..

the only thing you'll be spanking is your own right butt cheek :) haha just kidding... you can take out civics and the ls integras.... I know cause my buddy with his 90 sohc creams them all the time. That is of course if you have your engine in top notch condition.

Hot brakes are bad news... and it's better to spray them off, they won't warp that way... if left hot, and continually used.... then they warp. Large aircraft use liquid cooled brakes... I believe the C-130 for example.

Ya i've seen Tow truck size tractors(front end of 18 wheelers..for those who don't know) raising up pikes peak rally track..it's badass....in response..i didn't know they were all turbo...don't know much about them...except my dads is pretty fast for weighing an *** load...and it takes to long to shift through 10 gears...it's the 5 speed pattern twice...but 8-10 are fun :)(without a trailer atleast)

Don't let everyone put you down. I'm sure you can take a lot of cars. I can take Sis, some GSRs, even beat a V6 accord and a RSX. If I beat somone by a bumper, I spanked them, if I beat somone by 5 cars, I spanked them. i.e. If I win, I spanked whoever. That's how I call it. If somone beats me by a hood, they barely won :)

You beat GSR's and Si's and V6 accords with a stock 95 240sx? That makes me feel good, because my 95 has intake. headers and exhaust w/no cat, so I'd definitely be able to take those cars? (unless, of course, you're an exceptionally good driver and took these cars even though you shouldn't have...)

Y do people have to be ****s. SOHC engines can run low 17s without much done. THat isnt fast but not to bad. I Have one with exhaust and intake and have taken barrettas, bonnevilles non supercharged, civics anything but si, cavaliers, most regular 2 doors naturally aspirated. ANd if you are a 5 speed you can beat alot of cars. YOU can beat integs not gsr del sols about anything na with 4 cyl. So quit hating
