Hey I just watched this video yesterday and thought it was pretty cool and was going to post it but Chris beat me to it. That damn truck is a diesel and an automatic, pretty quick. I guess great minds think alike.

LVMS is a cool place, never been to the strip tho(that's where that was filmed). THat truck is one Bad@$$ truck. The sign said 11.42 seconds, and that's a 1/4 mile strip. That adds up to 115.58 MPH.

I think it said he went around 118mph

That would have been a lot better if the first 40 seconds of worthless video were cut out!

Actually it says 118 right under the 11.42!!

He seems to have bad reaction time...

Also Why is there so much black smoke??? Is it just cause its a diesel?

Cool video .... although I have no idea why it was posted in the trike forum - I moved it.

I'm tellin ya if he ran a 11.42 he only did 115.58 mph. do the math. 1 mile = 5280 feet, divided by 4 = 1320, divided by 11.42=115.586690017513134851138353765324

So....either the time is off, or the mph is off.

Ya but I am pretty sure reaction time is added onto that 11.42 ... so maybe he did the 1/4 mile in 11, but his reaction was .42 so it was added on.

Right I didn't think about that...his actual speed may have been 118 but his average was 115.58.....ok......I messed up my fault

The black smoke is caused my them overfueling the engine so much, it has nothing to do with the turbo. All the turbo does is force more air into the engine. In wich that causes you to be able to dump more fuel to it to get more power. I would bet it has 2 turbos on it. If you thijnk that is alot of black smoke wait until he fries a turbo it will smoke 10 times worse and have no power.

I have one of those but not as much mods as he had. But mine does the 1/4 at 14.1 . Not too bad for a huge diesel! LOL

Here is mine working hard.........peace

Hi Jim

I still have a house in GWL, but have lived in MD for 8 years. I'll be there this winter if it ever gets cold and the lake freezes.

HOLY HELL!?!??!?!? I've never seen a truck run like that. Hell 14's or 13's in a truck that huge is crazy, faster than my mustang (right now), and faster than my buddies mustang too. The best part is, is you can pull a 10,000 lb. trailer or during city driving get 20mpg, which isn't possible with a mustang.

I seen that video on another forum, they say that its a F350 Crew Cab longbed 4X4 with a 12V cummins runnin at 806rwhp. He's got an 8" lift, 36" tires, twins, piers injection pump, and a BTS moddified ford trany, and a crap load more work.

Wow 14.1 is still close to 95......I can only do 85 in the 1/4 with mine!

What mods does yours have Scott?

ScottZJ
11-26-2003, 10:14 PM
Well I have the fly wheel, pully, injector kit, fuel rail system, air in take system, hyper tech chip, down pipe, 4" straight pipe and a few other things. I think my next mod will be a turbo upgrade. It rocks to hear them blow off. Oh and mine did 14.1 with stock size tires and without this 6" lift I have on it. So I am sure its slower with the 35's and lift...........peace

Some details on the Kwik Krew Kab:
95 F350 crew cab, 800+HP, twin turbos spooling 90+PSI, #2 diesel fuel only, no drugs, oh, and it weighs 8000LBs. They say he could easily hit low 10s or better with NOS
or propane...

The weight of 8000 lbs for that truck might be a little high. My 92 F350 crew cab long bed 4x4 weighs about 6000 lbs with 351 and automatic, 33" tires, empty. I know the deisel engine is heavier, but not a whole Ton heavier... At any rate, thats a dam quick truck. I bet mine wont run the quarter in less than 20 seconds. 351's in trucks this size are dogs.

The ET and the mph doesn't reflect each other. It's all about the 60ft time.
The reaction time doesn't count onto the 1/4 mile time, unless that track is set different.

I'll have to snap some pics of my Father's F350 Diesel Dually next time im at the house. 7.3 liters of Fuel-Guzzlin' power on 6 Tires!

"twin turbos spooling 90+PSI"

I think this is complete BS. I have never heard of anyone ever running more than 30 psi boost, which is considered insane. My honda turbo tops out at 17 psi before the wastegate opens completely. Any turbo people able to back me up on this or have they been doing some crazy stuff recently ?

ScottZJ
12-02-2003, 01:36 PM
Yeah I have never heard of any turbo boosting that high either. I had my 300ZX TT boosting around 18psi and Supra around 21 but thats about it. ...........peace

An F350 Crew cab 4x4 diesel weighs between 8000 and 8500 lbs. Losing any weight would result in weaker and broken parts, there aren't any places to lose weight on a rig that big. He's also running a 36" tire!!
The one in the video belonging to Richard (Maddog) Madden is also his
daily driver. Only downfall is that it is a 5.9L 6cyl Cummins powered, but
it's still a diesel. He was running a 600+HP Powerstroke, but it was getting
too expensive to build beyond that.
They are now O-ringing and using custom headgaskets that will hold up
to 200PSI for the Powerstrokes and Cummins, I'm pretty sure the heads will fly through the hood before they see that though...
All the diesel tractor pullers are running around 150-200PSI of boost
when under power in a pull.
A stock 98 F350 with modest mods will spool just shy of 30PSI... stock
headgaskets are good to about 40PSI.

To get 90 psi. they stage the turbos. One spools the other turbo then that boost goes into the eingine, or another turbo and so-on. Ever see tractor pulls? they use upwards of 3 or more turbos in series to add boost. 90 psi seems pretty high, in fact realy high for a street application, but it's possible. Remember too that that's a cummins diesel in there heavily modified and a heavily modified transmission as well.

So....either the time is off, or the mph is off.

11.42@118mph is a great time/speed

as for you math hey nice work but this isn’t that simple

as you have to take into consideration traction, power, gearing,

for example say your running tall gearing and your slow off the line but once ya your top end you make tons of power it overcomes the gearing and you accelerate a lot harder get faster Yea i know i expanded it wrong

take a top fuel car time of like 5.61@281mph dose the math work out? doubt it lol

as for the black smoke that’s what ya get when you make tons of power with a diesel i would bet he had propane injection too
they use propane because N2O can't take the compression ratio (18-25:1)

his reaction time is just fine the other car was let out sooner because it’s a lot slower then him

reaction time isn’t added to the 1/4 mile ET the time starts when you cross the line

your 60' time greatly affects your 1/4's ET
say you spin for the first and second gear your losing time but when you hook up you gain speed that’s how ET and MPH end up not matching

Being a big fan of the Saturday Night grudge matches I use to go to with my ZX-7R, Joe is dead on. Watch the green lights for each lane. The Mazda is let out of the gate about a sec or 2 sooner before the Fords light went green. The time difference between their green lights is changed accoriding to their dial-in time.

I have heard of as much as 230 psi on a pulling tractor. You are comparing a Honda gas engine to a diesel which is not a fair comparison.

I stand corrected, I had no idea that diesels would use that much boost.

How is that a downfall? It sounds like the International couldn't cut the mustard and he UPGRADED. :?:

i thought they were bracket racing which explains why he left later because he dialed in a faster time.

oops, i just realized somebody already said that. my bad.
