Bucky Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 My two-year old great-grandson just saw this and said, "It's a train!!"
NYLIBUD Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 OMG,I Wonder what it does in the 1/4.Its pretty wild, but ugly as sin.
Bucky Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 It would take a 1/4 mile to turn that sucka around!! LOL
SfanGoch Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 I could picture Rob Zombie behind the wheel of this.
Draggon Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 He posted this youtube video of the engine almost 10 years ago. Amazing that the truck finally got done.
LL3 Model Worx Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 I know it's a diesel, but I find it hilarious that over 1600 cubic inches and 12 Superchargers and apparently nitrous makes sub 4000 horspower... I'm sure the torque is astronomical, but still! 1 500 cube pushrod v8 and a single supercharger with no nitrous can make over 4000hp... That thing must be EXTREMELY mannerly as far as engine characteristics. Despite the hideous aesthetic, the specs are far from impressive. All in my humble opinion of course.

Modelbuilder Mark Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Despite all the power, per the OP link, top speed is only around 130mph
SfanGoch Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 I'll raise you on that. I had no idea it even existed.
Oldcarfan27 Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 How do you see past the hood to park the thing?
Mike 1017 Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 Sold for $12,000,000. It makes me wonder what kind of moral turpitude the buyer has. So much good could be done with 12M. Mike
cowboy rich Posted January 12, 2020 Posted January 12, 2020 Sold to the middle east...I guess that and the fact some spent that kinda money on a toy means they have money to feed it.! 12 million could definitely be better spent. The hp someone mentioned I think it is 2 8V92's which are 2 stroke...so would that make a difference?
