No. But diesels have been known to do so for another reason - running
(uncontrollably) on their lube oil.
And let's not forget that these 617.95X are now old machines and have
weakened somewhat with age so no drag racing for them!

Hogwash. I drag race mine every time I can. That is every time I can
find a suitable victim. Usually a dump truck or semi towing a wide
load. I've only lost once to a dupm truck. That was humiliating. Then
he dropped a stone out the back. Yep, he had a full load.
Okay. So maybe I'm exagerating.
