The B-Class doesn’t seem like much if you’re just looking at it. The car doesn’t have the status and prestige of an E-Class or the racing history of the gullwings.

This week’s Truckin Fast Wednesday clip features a 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 racing on an 8th mile drag strip against a 4th generation Dodge Viper SRT10 Roadster. At first, that probably sounds like a race that will end up in a Viper handing out a good, sound beating but when you factor in a heavy ...
