Now how ironic would it be though for Team 188 "The Blizzard" to be driving force behind a tornado?

Sorry, I just had to much time on my hands this morning while I am waiting for some parts for my news/chase truck so I ad to write this

Blizzard won't. Robowranglers (team 148) already did. There were some other helical loaders that were pretty fast too.

You definitely have too much time on your hands. I do too, if the first thing I thought of was that that's already been done...
