Another video for the speed lovers! No laws were broken, nor animals hurt in the making of this video.

Wow that first 70 goes by pretty fast. Did it feel light or unstable above 100?

Truck is really stable. I'm on a 4600 ft private blacktop runway that is 40' wide. Repaved last year so it is smooth as glass. There is another 800 ft of paved drive at the end leading around to a barn/hanger that can be used for braking. If you go straight you go off into a field for the most part. Truck is only at 120 for a second or two before some pretty good braking starts. It's still pulling hard at the 120 mph mark, but I'm out of road for the most part. I used half of the 800 ft to get to a complete stop. If I wanted to get real stupid I could hit the paved start of the runway at about 70-80 mph and have about a mile of road to really wind it up...but I'm calling it quits.
