    Seems the military has it's own hotrods.

     



    My brother sent me a photo of one these Mine Resistent Ambush Protected fast ground vehicle the army has in Afghanistan. He said they move pretty fast(65 mph) and are much better armored than the beefed up armored Humvees. I thought they looked pretty cool, not sure how fast they are.
