im sure the 1/4 the truck is faster then the s2000.. but i agree the honda "should"have been able to catch him easier then he did.

I have 2007 Cummins 2500 HD Ram longbed quadcab 4X4 and the door sticker says GVWR 9000 lbs

XcYZ 08-08-2008 12:54 PM

GVWR isn't the same as curb weight.

GVWR is the total allowed weight of the vehicle including passenger load, cargo load, fuel load, tongue weight, etc.

Curb weight of a stock 2006 Quad Cab 4x4 2500 Cummins motivated truck is listed at 6989# with a GVWR of 9000#.

That's a funny video. :lol:

SWEET! I think the S2000 driver couldn't drive because he was nausiated with Diesel fumes.
Gotta give it to the Ram driver... he was making the corners even though he probably had brake fade.

Just goes to show you -- a poor driver with good equipment is no match for a good driver with average equipment.
