Though wildly popular in the 80s, escalating costs, insurance nightmares, and track destruction forced its demise in the 90s. But the dream lived on—Europe reinvented it with the FIA European Truck Racing Championship, proving high-speed truck racing could survive… just not in the gloriously destructive American way.
