now that's impressive

Holy Shiat!!! I wonder why the F350 took off so late.

turbo lag i guess

Bitchin, even if it is a Ford.

wow.. not even a couple car lengths to make it interesting, but by 18 wheeler truck lengths.

That is crazy..............The thing sounded like a jet engine!

Lots - o - turbo :P

That was really quick. Did his opponent have any idea...

F350!? The truck? Jesus. That time is ungodly anyway, let alone for a pickup.. and a pickup of that magnitude..

How good is 11.42 anyway????

Ummm, damn good. A stock Z28 Camaro will run mid-high 13's.

^Try a 14 flat with a good driver. LS1's and the SS's make high 13's, again, with a good driver. LT1's are all in the 14's.

I think that Pulsar or whatever jumped the gun but Holy Moly...did it ever get embarrassed. Great to see that pickup kick some ass.

Looked like a Ford Probe to me:p

you know that probe driver is getting shit for getting his doors blown off by a F 350.

yup hate to be him right now...and hope his friends didn't see it:p

I really hope that you're kidding...

It's called bracket racing; each driver gives a goal time that they would like to hit. If they go faster than their goal time they have lost the round.
So, each driver must come as close to their 'bracket' time, without going under. The differential comes in when you have two different cars that are 'dialed' in for different times. I have seen a moped race a Corvette and win! How, you ask? The corvette 'broke out' of it's dial-in by going too fast.

It's the equivalent of giving someone a head start; though it is fair for two drivers with cars that have a great difference in speed.

Damn that is fast.....pretty good for a non aerodynamic brick...

That's easily that baddest turbo diesel on the planet.

That was just soo cool!!! What was all that smoke pouring out? What the hell does that guy have under the hood!!!

Powerstroke 6.0L 8 Cylinder Turbo Diesel

it's an older style ford, they came with the 7.3

DAMNNNNNNNNNNNN GOOD!

Watch the tree. It wasn't staggered like they do in bracket racing for different dial in's. It was a pro tree, both greens lit at the same time. He gave the other guy (who wasn't too good at staging, either) a massive hole shot.

Edit- And as much as I dislike Powerstrokes, that was pretty damn cool.

the car was an older RX7

One word-Propane.

Lsd

that was kick ass

Whoa ........that's cool!!

I beat the F350 driver had a Maddog system in that thing!


Maddog is NOS all the time!:D

Nos doesn't do anything much for deisels i thought. The Nitrous equivelant is, if i remember right, propane.

Nitroius is very effective as is propane. That truck is prolly using both and a bigass turbo.

Not bad, but not anywhere near the best I've seen. Check out this place who are noted for moding diesel stuff pretty good:

Under their videos link, I got one where "Keith" runs a 10.41 with the truck he drove to the track and uses for work every day.

maybe it was Propane...but I think it might have been NOS!

yes propane is the boost of choice for diesels

yea way to demean a good video, whether or not it's the best out there, it still has me impressed

notice in the video that he isn't reving very much before the green, with that truck he probably has a pretty heavy / big flywheel, even tho he races, so I think the reason he waited is just that he had to get his RPM up first.

damn cool. period.

I would do something like that to mock my opponent if my truck could do that.

That was unreal!
