    Default Talk about a fast truck!

    This video was shot in Namibia, a country in Southwestern Africa. The car is traveling at 140km/h (88 mph) and is passed by a tractor trailer. I'm guessing the truck is doing at least 95 mph!

    Here's a video from the Netherlands of a tricked out Volvo FH16 with big stacks and 610hp on tap.

    You can take the driver out of the truck but you cant take the truck out of the driver.

    But, if i can get around to it, i can post some videos of even faster semi-trialers.

    That's something else. I wonder what the speed limit is over there, and what happens if you get caught speeding...

    Speed limit on the open road in Namibia is 120km/h (75 mph).
