Oh yes. Best part? I actually know 3 of the 4 people in that truck. The shorter haired of the twins is my uncle Mark, his long haired twin Henley sold Felix (the german guy) the truck. This is what happened.

Plays for me. So far I find myself wishing they were pushing the truck a lot harder and just generally not driving the way they are

Still kinda fun to do though. Is the GP track always part of the lap at the 'Ring?

It's definitely an idea I could get behind. It's just watching someone crossing his arms while driving and trying to steer any 4 wheeled other than a go kart by leaning into corners in his seat frustrates me.

Fantastic! Hey, do what ya can with what ya have. Only chance I ever had to drive the Pacific Coast Highway was in a rental Dodge Caravan with my family onboard. Better than not ever having the chance at all..

Yea, I drove around Watkins Glen in a 150,000 mile Saturn with luggage in the back seats and "Just Married" stickers all over it. Do what you can when you can! A diesel 1-ton truck though, that's pretty epic.

Someone tells me you can drive a lap of the 'Ring and here are the keys to my 1 ton dually, I would be into the drivers seat so quick. If I had time and opportunity to plan my perfect Ring experience, then I would choose something a little sportier. Either way, they got to drive round a legendary track - all I got to do was watch the video.
