    What you have is what you have, these are NOT fast trucks, they have the power to do what they were designed to do. if you want FAST road recoveries, get a civi rig.

    2014 MVPA National Convention- Louisville, KY

    I thought the 2012 mvpa convention SUCKED, vehicles crammed together, seemed to have more room for venders then vehicles, some of the major venders had brought huge table space, there by squeezing the smaller venders into one or two tables (money talks). GL. entered trucks (6 or 8) that that...

    M811 throttle/governor

    It has a aux. governor, when the pto is engaged there is a control valve that is opened that puts air to the aux. governor, make sure the valve linkage is connected to the pto, worse case, disconnect and cap the air line to the aux. governor, this will deactivate the aux. governor
