Here's what I would do every day of my life if I could find races around here.There are dozens of these vids on YT and I watch them alot....I'd bet a few of these are company trucks that the owners are clueless that their hands are out there ragging the hell out of their trucks.Big injectors,big pumps and mega turbos.

Holy Cow - look at the torque those rigs have! They're almost twisting those tractors into corkscrews!

Doesn't that sound great....I wouldn't have a license after the first day with that baby.

It would be IMPOSSIBLE not to mash it through the floorboards everytime you took off.
