In the late eighties, something unimaginable was happening in the world of racing! Formula1 cars' engines reached levels of one and a half thousand horsepower, rally monsters, de facto, were groundbased rockets... In the world of trucks, there was also a stereotypebreaking machine: a twinengine monster truck flying through the desert at speeds exceeding 200 kilometers per hour, easily overtaking... Group B rally cars! The DAF TurboTwin is not only one of the most famous vehicles ever to participate in the ParisDakar rally, but also perhaps the craziest racing truck! Just think about it: two engines, two gearboxes, and a top speed of 240! Only a breakdown or an accident could stop the DAF TurboTwin... De Rooy aimed to win the overall Dakar classification, and if not for a terrible accident, Jan could have achieved triumph...
