So the Terradyne Gurkha, built like a brick outhouse and weighs as much as Fort Knox. ( which incidentally is where the inspiration for the nickname of my 3 Gurkhas came from. 
)
In stock form it's no enthiusant machine, but you won't have to worry much about anything slowing you down much.
Now when you throw some money and parts at it, it becomes quite literally the biggest Sleeper in Horizon.
My B class version has a maxed(or near maxed) out version of the stock turbo diesel V8, over 900hp and a mind numbing 2035 ft/lbs of torque IIRC.
Still has stock tyre compound but handles absurdly well all things considered.
My 2 A Class machines are packing the V12 engine, The 4wd off-roader at over 1300hp and my Rwd tarmac focused at over 1500hp.
The brilliance of the Gurkhas ability comes from its absurd weight pushing the tyres down so traction is incredible for its size.
Need more convincing?
That was taken awhile back and it was on one of the Byron Bay Cross Country events and yes, that is the Global leaderboards for that track in A class.
I decided after that to design a livery for it, I'm no Van Gogh so I used humour as my basis.
Painted it Gold chrome, slapped a few Apex Racing stickers I made on it and then put my rear mounted joke on the back, the words Keep Up!!! in big black letters.
The nickname I called the design was I still think a stroke of genius, Using the Gurkhas heavily armoured construction and the gold finish as the basis and combining it with how some people pronounce Forza as Fortza, I dubbed the paint job, 'Fort-za Knox'.
So yeah, in stock form it probably is a Beater, But tuned?
Well the results speak for themselves. 👍

FastBud gave me nothing I could snark on. You lot are getting too genre-savvy.
