You know those massive dumper trucks you see hauling ridiculous amounts of earth around huge open cast mines. Well now there is a new super dump truck, the Belarusian Belaz 75710. Rated to carry 450 metric tons, rolling on eight 12′ tyres, powered by two 130L 16-cylinder turbocharged diesel engines. Yes you read that correctly, two engines bigger then most cars, each producing 2,300 hp, for a combine total of 4,600 hp and a mind blowing 13,738 lb ft of torque. All this power only equates to a maximum speed of 40mph, but when your lugging 450 tons up a grade that pretty impressive.

It started at a young age with bedroom posters, the Countach of course. This slowly grew into a super car die-cast model collection, fifty five 1:18 models at the last count. At which point it had almost taken full control, the incurable Mad Car Disease ran deep though my veins all the way to the bone. And things for my loved ones just got worse as the cars where now being bought at 1:1 scale, after a BMW, HSV, and couple of Audi's, the disease reached my brain, pushing me over the edge and down the rabbits hole into the world of the bedroom poster.
