Indy well describes the endurance side, but Monster Truck Rally might not be an apt analogy for anaerobic conditioning - there's a surprising amount of endurance involved with such heavy work over a long time.

But sprinting, which involves trying to get the fastest speed possible for a very short burst, requires a great deal of anaerobic training. Look at the bodies of endurance athletes vs sprinters - the sprinter has MASSIVE quads and hams, and substantial upper body strength and size as well. Drag racing might be a more apt analogy.
