    Is that the cap here? 56mph for artics? I feel like I've been overtaken by some that are showing a serious turn of speed...

    Here a pic of an Australian cattle road train. Limited to 90 k/h (NSW and QLD) but with 600hp and 18 speed overdrive and the breeze in the back 120 k/h is not unusual. Done a few trips with a mate (not this Tanami RT.jpg company) and it is hard work. I drove a refrigerated truck at the time and was thinking of changing over to cattle but decided it was not for me. To bloody big.
