Of the ones on the list that I'm familiar with I would have guessed the Abe, but there are some there that I just dont have a clue on.

Well then take a guess! Very Happy

That is what this is all about, to test not only your knowledge, but your capacity to reason an answer! Smile

I vote for the M1 Abrams. It has a top speed of sixty mph. It was a joint venture with the Germans and I hope it is faster than their Leopard tank. Smile

But we will see in a month! Smile

My first instinct is the Abrams because those thigns Haul azzz...

However, I will, as always, go against my gut and vote for the Leopard cause those Germans make fast stuff, what with all their Bimmers and all that... Plus leopard sounds fast LOL.

Looks like this poll has pretty much run its course...

And its 30 days anyway, annnnnnddddd it looks like I am going to give the answer without a prompting from Pappy for a change! Wink

So the answer is...

The M-18 Hellcat!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes this WWII designed Tank Destroyer had a issued top speed of 52MPH!!

That is faster then any of the other vehicles on the list, even the M1 Abrams and the Leopard II...

The M-18 was used in combat after WWII in several battles in South and Central America and also again in the former Yugoslavia...

Looks like I just about stumped everyone on this poll! Twisted Evil

Those of you that voted right really knew your stuff! Smile


CAG out...

PS - Kap, there is no T-60, dont you mean T-62?! Razz
