Epic Semi Truck Jump Is a Win!

If god wanted trucks to fly, automotive engineers would know about composite wings (not the upside down type) and propellers. But since they don’t the only way to make a big-ol’ semi truck fly is to give it a ramp and and an oval track so it can pick up some speed.
This video that’s recently been posted on Youtube can only come from the land of V8 lawn-mowers, 4th of July pyrotechnics and NASCAR - America.

It might sound like we don’t like the record semi truck jump, but we actually love it. It’s good that some people are willing to do these dangerous stunts for the Internet’s entertainment. Feel free to tell us what you thing of THE CRUSHER (yes, all caps) and its record attempt at the longest tractor jump ever. It’s got a set of thumb-ups from us.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
