Default Speed up?

With a four speed box and the governor set to 29mph in third gear, I dont think so! the only thing going for it is the aero-dynamics of the cargo. The RL will never be more than a "rolls can ardly", because if you up power the things, you've got serious problems trying to stop 'em.-----Nice pic even if seems that the truck and the rocket come from two different technological ages.
How many mechanics have been injured standing up from a front hub,and hitting their head on the bottom corner of an RL door?
