    i think trucks should only be measured/raced in the 1/4 mile with 80,000lbs gross and a van trailer. AND they need to pass a legal DOT type inspection before allowed to race.


    Because without that, you get into "trucks" that have single axle(with car slicks), no fifth wheel, jet engines, etc. So at that point how do you define a class 8 truck?

    The truck has to be legal on highway, 2 rear axle no nitrous, no propane, no water injection. diesel truck engine only.

    how much do you guys think it would cost to go up to the rodeo in Notre-Dame-du-Nord. Me and a friend are planning on going there for prob just saturday and sunday and just want to know a general price range in US$$. We are probably driving there so 1500 mile round trip but what do you guys normally spend at the show for souvenirs and general spending
