Exactly 💯!

Somebody has to remind those tree huggers that their favorite companies are all dumping chemicals in the air and water 24/7 and no one cares 🤷🏻 Much easier to blame it on the diesel cars.

Dont woorie little friend. You just need to buy an farm, grow some tree and you can solve your own polution. Make a better planet, but there are other worse things than this diesel

To enjoy the show you first have to be able to see it and it's hard to see when there's so much smoke from the diesels racing, and to all the tards who are only thinking about the black soot non effects on the atmosphere tells me you they dont know it's effects on breathing it. Short term exposure effects eyes nose throat and lungs and can cause headaches and nausea. Long term effects can cause asthma, bronchitis and even heart disease. I've been around semi diesel trucks since I was able to walk, my dad had a trucking business and repair shop. I eventually became a certified diesel mechanic. Always had good health with diet and exercise. When I turned 28 I was diagnosed with heart disease meaning high blood pressure and started having bouts with bronchitis and headaches, but I still love diesel trucks.

@@nick9463 Jesus Christ. All about diesel ffs what about preto gasolina gasoline...? Petrol doesnt polute? Why dont u da to China to close coal mines, Eua to lower the cc for engine!?? Here in Europe we dont have v6 or v8 like murica, and we have same or even more power than Eua. Why Eua left Paris agremment. Stop and think, this drag racing is bad but isnt the hole problem

Even if electric does win it would never sound this amazing

I would like to see it lined up to a blown alcohol injected hemi dragster

If you’re slower than an ev all of a sudden loud and smokey isn’t nearly as cool.

@@adamd5013 As much as I love the sounds of a ICE, do you have any idea how insane modern EVs are?

@@Branbran1993 this dragster will destroy any electric vehicle ever produced so will many other production cars

Not to shabby for a tractor and truck engine.

It's pretty darn cool with the International, Thank God not another Cummins.

yeah i have rebuilt htese engines in harvesters and tractors

now triple that with a little more and you have a top fuel drag rail, pushing from as little as 8'000 up to as much as 11'000 horsepower. Though it might only be less than four seconds of rush but it would be worth every bit.

It's a wonder the rearend stays together 😀

Tractor pulling engine

@@eric2895 DT466’s we’re medium duty engines designed in the late 70’s.

Let alone most electricity is produced by coal/fossil fuels. For their electric cars.

We had a fire recently in nearby Morris Illinois south of Chicago,where electric batteries were stored and caught on fire. Was declared a disaster zone as it dumped toxic fumes into the air and fire is impossible to put out for hours upon hours. Nobody talks about the disposal of old batteries and not to mention the destruction that goes on mining the elements they are made of.

@@RACEYOURRIDE Plenty of people talk about, they won't be heard is the problem. I bitch about the whole recycling scam always. Someone has yet to explain to me how now having 3 trucks instead of 1 on trash day is an improvement.

Traditional top fuel is under 4 seconds and over 330 mph

@@kenbowser5622 but what about the rpms ?

All diesels run lower rpm’s than gas vehicles. Roughly half.

Mike Spain that is not true whatsoever

@@mikespain8655 Not "All" Diesels.

Next year hopefully 🙏

Exactly 💯

Just diesel as far as I know.

It could also stand for Top Diesel, with I believe is a class in the NHRDA.

With a diesel you don't have to worry about that because diesels are direct injected, so you just set the injector timing to inject the fuel at the point you want it to ignite at.

Good question

Fkng insane I bet!

Thanks! Not sure what you mean 🤔

They were talking about when you were in the pits and the crew was warming up the car. Maybe an angle at the front of the car. It would be cool to see finish line shots of something like this, or anything else really. No one ever does finish line shots. All they ever do is just stand at the starting line and then go to the next clip before showing times and MPH.

You know diesel burns cleaner than gasoline right?

I could see that!

🤔 To do something out of the ordinary!

Your comment is depressing.

That's what your parents said.

The point... Really !!! That happens when Prius owners comments on diesel videos

Fun

A ton 😄👍

250psi and a 6000rpm redline according to Diesel World Mag

For real!!🤣😂

Actually diesel burns cleaner than gas. 🤟

@@RACEYOURRIDE news.berkeley.edu/2012/10/22/diesel-vs-gas-contributing-to-smog/ It does if it is a modern off the lot consumer diesel car or truck but that's because it has loads of systems that filter the exhaust, unlike this hunk of drag racing sadness 🤣

@@RACEYOURRIDE till you roll coal like a douchebag.

Wrong

Good question. Just starting it alone must take a lot.

💯 sure 👍

Little bit of a price difference but yeah nothing beats a top fuel for excitement.

Your trying to compare a 3000hp diesel rail to a 10000hp top fuel car?

That was asked before but don't remember what the owner replied with.

VW got caught doing what Cat, Cummins, and Navistar got caught doing 20 years earlier. Now VW owns Navistar, so we have cheaters owning cheaters.

It helps the turbos at lower RPM. Unburnt fuel in the exhaust creates high EGT'S but it keeps the turbines spinning until the fuel finishes burning up

Gotta keep the turbos on the fire

I know it's hard work to look stuff up on the internet, but I'll save you some hard work. Gale Banks is the authority on turbo diesels. Only aftermarket supplier that doesn't void any factory warranties. Plus, you wont see any black stuff coming out the exhaust of any rigs running his products.

😄 Uh ok 👌

@@JOutterbridge I get all that but why not just add timing take the fuel away and keep heat out the combustion? some guys say the extra fuel helps cool combustion at some point but I just don't see it. but all the high hp guys has smoke 🚬!!!! so I guess they know something more than us keyboard guys lol I really would like to see some data on the manifold temp with a lean mix vs a rich mixture!!! I had a c16 turbo on mine egts would get 1100 1200 put the 80mm borg on and dropped egts 300* with the same amount fuel. more air less heat 100more ponnies. water injection HELPED me ALOT TOO I'm sure these guys got 16 nozzles lol

Yes he almost did, that wouldn't have ended well.

The Route 66 drag strip is a 1/4 mile

​@@gt4pacecar889 it's got traps at the eighth too...

Yes, however the numbers that are displayed are for the 1/4 mile

Yeah, sick rig but it seemed like they have a lot of bugs to work out.

That damn thing torque so high I don’t blame it

@@thenostalgicgamer2093 it was violent off the line.

Yes they were having clutch problems but they set a record in Texas.

Pretty much a 7 sec run?? You apparently never raced in your life. 🥴

Pretty sure its to promote their turbos and they have ran low 6's. Considering the weight of the 1900lb engine compared to say top fuel dragsters its apples n oranges

@@RACEYOURRIDE it's apples to oranges only that its heavy and diesel. If they want to race they have to line up against the oranges and then they don't win much. And losing by over 2 seconds in a quarter mile is not just losing, its getting crushed.

@@jonathanalexander1913 Considering a top fuel dragster has around 10,000+ hp and weighs as much as just the engine in the 3,000 hp diesel dragster I'd say it's apples to oranges. No comparison at all and the top fuel dragsters have to tear down and refresh everything after every run not so with this dragster. Let's not even get into the cost difference between the two.

Finally someone with knowledge thank you 👏

P pump a 7.3 and come back lmao!

its not a cummins international466 looks pretty damn fast to me 6.69 in quarter mile not to shabby

@@joseywales2037 oh ok. Good to know. I thought a lot of the high hp diesel guys went with the Cummins. Cool to see a different manufacturer in there.

6.69 is damn good in a 3000hp rig considering a top fuel Hemi makes upwards of 10k horsepower to break into the high 3s.

😄

It set a record in Texas so guess its slow.

🤔 👌

Yes. Ask Gale Banks.

When your putting out 3000 hp in a virtually same design and sized Diesel engine that makes 300 hp from the factory there’s no avoiding smoke. You can reduce it as much as possible but there is always gonna be smoke.

It's ok to dream, we all do 😄🤟

Sure thing Victor.......

I'll give them your advice. 🙄 Guess when they set a record in Texas it was from poor tuning. 😄

Clearly you have no idea who the man behind all this is….. he’s done as much or more for diesel performance than Gale has.

Runs cleaner than gas sooo...

@@RACEYOURRIDE you’re earth is flat brother

🙄😄

Yeah cause plants do not need carbon😑

I'm willing to bet a euro spec Ferrari pumps more harmful gasses i to the atmosphere than this.

@@jeremyjustice1358 Exactly why huge dinosaurs could not survive today from lack of oxygen. Volcanic activity produced massive amounts of carbon. In return vegetation prospered producing massive amounts of oxygen.

@@RACEYOURRIDE lol 😂

Having clutch issues and you race what again?

In the 8th no...if it was in the quarter hell yeah it would

Where do you see saying it's 3000hp? The turbos are capable of that amount but that doesn't mean the engine is producing that much.
