Awesome drivetrain test

Amazing that the clutch, u-joints and everything else hung on for that. Frame twisting power....

the frames are built to be flexible like that so they dont break anything.

Some of those trucks are built to pull, but are also daily drivers on the road. I've watched lots of videos from the Quebec pulls, and know a few guys that have gone for the weekend.

The first vid is from the truck Rodeo they do every year in Notre-Dame-du-Nord, Québec. I went many times, it's awesome!!

Haven't been there last 2 years, no time.

Countless trucks.....

Cause those big dirty diesels are killing the planet! Duh!

I would love to see that in person. I'll bet it's a hell of a ride...
