I would be fun to enter a diesel racetruck on a trackday and scare all the other cars and overtake them all.

Yeah I remember that Foden racing truck in JCs No Limits, that was fast :shock:

But of course have to delete the speed limiter because they are limited to 100 mph so you can overtake them everywhere even on the straight.

Antonio Albacete - the current European Truck Champion - drove his truck at Jarama de-restricted... and reached something like 200kmh at the end of the straight - but no one thought about the brakes... obviously, they're not prepared to stop a 5-tons monster doing 200kmh... so he end up behind the barriers

I believe some the dakar rallytrucks are capable to reach 200 km/h whit no speed limiter.
Can you develop a braking system that can slow a racing truck down from 200 km/h+??
