Looks more like doing donuts on a frozen lake to me.

The white one is nice but the guy babies it to much. The ambulance box versions are very top heavy and the trucks are pretty tippy to begin with.

I liked my old ex-racing Pinz more though....

They are expensive toys, fairly easy to work on but take a lot of special tools once you get in the deep mechanicals. The lack of articulation sucks but traction is through the roof! Very stout tuff truck that takes a beating and keeps on ticking. Difficult to recover a 6x6 that is stuck though, mine was usually a bitch to get unstuck. The motor is an aircooled 4cyl similar to an old 70's Porsche motor. In fact so similar the duel carbs interchange or so I have been told. If you water proof the engine and put a snorkel on it it does very well in deep water. Only prob is the alt dies under water!
