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.

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. -SF |

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

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.
