It's a friggin' race car - that meets a specific class requirement... ...



How many of you guys knocking Banks as marketing hype and no bang for the buck have actually seen the Banks facility/operation?



I have and it's fairly impressive - I interviewed there several years ago for an engineering position. And no, I don't own any Banks equipment although my father does on his '96 and he's been very happy with the entire package.

I agree in a small way. its like all the ugly girls hating the hot chick because shes hot. Banks is successfull and lots of people knock them. They have good marketing. I honestly dont know enough about this stuff to really give an informed opionon. Learning from TDR. I've read some good bad and ugly. Ya its a full blown custom race car/truck. For what it is I thinks it pretty cool and impressive.

Wild. So how do they make so much power without blowing smoke? Is it special fuel or something?

 

[WUnderwood]

yeah, and they are using CNG (little diesel and nitrous) to break records, YAY!
