That convoy was great fun, not strictly racing but you can see one shot where Mr_Pushrod actually clips the back of my trailer (white Knight Hauler with flat bed trailer) with his King Hauler there is an audible gasp on the video.

[Dazmeister]

Hey Rich I was hounding your rear end in my Globe, didnt realise I was that close !

Didnt hit anyone, makes it more interesting if they are closer[]

Daz

[mr_pushrod]

Whoops! Didn't realise the little coming together I had with Rich got such a reaction!

[Scorchio]

[^] Fantastic! I never realised the sounds were so good, I love the orderly start and degeneration into semi racing & chaos []

[amigamad]

Are all these running standard motors or have they got modified one,s in.After seeing this video im thinking of buying one the lights and sounds were briliant.

Well, I had a standard 540 in and I think the others did too[] and the best bit was we all agreed to go round the track in second gear[]3rd gear could have caused some major damage[][][:I]

The sound is very authentic. I believe Tamiya digitally recorded the sounds from a real truck. The engine sound is totally proprtional to the movement of the throttle. I had my neighbor come out of his house thinking that there was a Semi truck that kept running up and down the block honking it's horn.

[mr_pushrod]

Yup mine is standard, was going round in 2nd at about half throttle whist I was leading (purple hauler with tanker). Looked a lot slower than that on the rostrum, lol.

[BiggusDitchus]

Yup, standard i was also quite convinced we were travelling slower than that. Though I did shift into 3rd to overtake Mr_P... Daz was making me nervous travelling so close, though luckily i do trust his ability []

[kawazx9]

my aero is running standard, it was mine that lost the box when my friend was driving it[]. mind you it was his box so i dont mind.
