AC66Bronco Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 I believe the Europeans have out-rednecked us with this we actually had this over here for a while but struggled to take of due to sponsor funding. or so I read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accel_is_my_drug Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 The Black NSX is a twin turbo V6, not V8... And its based of a stock SOHC mass production honda engine. Think minivan... ala the odyssey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avenger1647545502 Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 The USA used to have two racing series with semis...they even ran at Daytona! There is a clip in "Days of Thunder" of one of the wrecks. Look at Great American Truck Racing for clips and stuff... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem was our version, the GATR series, used tandem axle trucks based on stock chassis. They are HEAVY...and they beat the living hell out of track surfaces. Tracks would have to resurface after a GATR race, which is expensive, plus the track would be out of commission for several weeks. Just not enough profit in it to make it worthwhile for the tracks.
