Volvo Has Broken The World Speed Record With This 2400bhp Truck

Volvo already held the truck land speed record but went all-out with the 'Iron Knight'
Remote video URL

Spitting out 2400bhp and 4400lb ft of torque, the 13-litre diesel Volvo truck has smashed the truck land speed record, claiming the title once held by a similar hybrid Volvo named ‘Mean Green’.

Running over a 1000m track, the Iron Knight has to run in each direction and then take an average of times clocked for each run. Watch as the Swedish truck annihilates the novelty world record, showing what the Swedes are really made of!

Impressive! But I think it could have done a better time without wheelspin at the start…

Here we go with the keyboard experts…….do you know the bigger the turbos you have the more rev you need to put at the start? even with the wheels spin it’s better to start slower and wait for the turbos to spool up.
Trust me they know what they’re doing, they probably tried hundreds of times to get the best start off.

See if you can beat the world record time in Forza with the Mercedes Racing truck?

Maybe as a potential DLC for Forza Horizon 3. Probably about Australian road trains

276 km/h! Are you kidding me??? That’s astronomical for a truck, it’s something you expect from one of those absurd 21 gear, 10,000 bhp mods for ETS2
