Big Rigs and TRUCKIES

hEY,

As you will note from my posts that I love the big rigs and racing em'. Not sure if on the other side of the world it is as populat as in the Pacific, but we regular meets and comps. Anyone else out there into them and would love to hear from some drivers and enthusiasts. I have posted quite a few and will continue doing so. Check them out

Its a convey in one - Road train

Didnt want to duplicate a previous upload, but the link takes you to the world record for a road truck, pulling from stationary the largest ever road train. It is not a train in the snese of being on tracks, but a rig coupled to other trailers.

The longest road train ever assembled was 1,018.2 m (3,340 ft) long and consisted of 79 trailers with a combined weight of 1,072.3 tonnes (2.364 million lb). It was pulled a distance of 8 km (4.9 miles) by a Kenworth C501T truck driven by Australia's Steven Matthews, near Kalgoorlie, WA, Australia, on October 19th, 2000 in an event known as 'Doug's Tug', after organiser Doug Gould. As seen in the Guinness book of world records.
