Re: BSA semi big rig, looking for speed tips.
Sporty,
If you've ever done a google internet search for big rig speed tip's ..there is not much to be found.
I've found more building and speed tips for the big rigs right here on DT.
Andy & Noah shared there pack rules with me on the Mr the King topic..
About useing a small bolt for holding the trailer to the truck that was a neat idea.
Instead of just using the single pin and letting the truck and trailer swing.
The thing I liked the most about there rules:
Was the maximum length limits seen for building the trucks and the trailers

I liked how open the rules were on this for designing all types of trucks or trailers.
I can tell you that I'v seen the maximum weight limits for the semi trucks verry as well..
from 22 oz ..on up to 26oz in some big rig race rules.
Most all the rules I'v seen the truck cab maximum weight is at 9oz and the trailer is 16oz or more..
But the one speed tip I'v seen the most for them.. is keeping the weight low.
