I contacted the current owner of the Duel truck. Hopefully he will be interested in attending May Madness 2005! After all, the Duel Peterbilt is Cummins powered Oo.

DUEL awesome movie but dont forget "Maximum Overdrive" that is another great one (1986) with Emilio Estevez, Pat Hingle, Laura Harrington, Christopher Murvey, Yeardley Smith Directed by: Stephen King



I just went to yahoo movies and typed in "Duel" and "Maximum Overdrive" It came up with some great descriptions of the movies.

thats true but Duel was made in the 70's? and they had a sucess once with that storyline so why not try it again? like texas chainsaw massacare? house on haunted hill... . yeah the storylines arnt goign to be the same but the jist of the movie will be. Trucker follows car for no reason (maybe he was tailgating or the trucker was fed up with cars passing all the time?)... 30yrs later truck follows car for a prank(trucker is not shown either in this movie)
