Well, the trailers were not loaded, the Truck was a Kenworth Cab-over Tri-drive with a 660hp cummins motor, probably still got a 18 speed spicer in it(gearbox)? and im sure that he would have only pulled it in a straight line, coz the legal amount of trailers is 4, in Darwin Northern Territory!
I seriously doubt if it's true, you can't make a turn with this length and I also doubt if the engine can produce even 40% of the torque needed to get this thing? rolling from a standstill. I would like to see it accelerate on just a minor hill, I bet he would just burn his clutch.
Way back in March 2006 70-year old truck driver John Atkinson took his Mack Titan model into the Guinness? Book of Records using a mile long stretch of road at Clifton, near Toowoomba Australia, by moving the massive roadtrain which weighed 2,865,980-pounds that's 1,300 metric tonnes the required 100m for it to qualify as a record. Since then a 113 trailer road train in Queensland Australia has broken that record.
