    You know, my gut says it was some sort of commercial conversation vehicle. Those things are made out of little more than sheet metal, have a large surface area and when empty they're pretty light. When I zoom in I also notice there's some sort of rubber around the rear bumper. So maybe I'm thinking mail truck? Those little Grumman things that replaced the Jeeps.

    Got a good blow, picked it up and spun it across the infield like a NASCAR wreck. Bodywork shed everywhere only the frame & engine land anywhere near each other.

    Good call on the mail truck. I couldn't figure out what truck it was.

    Yea those things would be pretty flimsy with an aluminum body.

    I loved that aw *&^% tank car with hazmat coming on... That was a good video. Locomotive took the hit pretty good though.
