Competition Anyone know this guy?...CTD runs 11.04 @ 128mph

[JBlackwell]

I just got this vid off the Houston Area Lightning Owners site.

This was at San Antonio drag strip and his name is Jeff Prince I think from Chapman Ranch, TX. Looks to be a 2wd dually with some big ol slicks and a cage.



Does anyone know this guy, I am curious to what in the world he has done to this Cummins?!?

Yep, Prince Performance Diesel. There are several videos out of his runs.

If it's Jeff Prince (I think it is) he's from down around Corpus Christi, there's a couple of fast trucks running around with his name attached. He has Prince Performance Diesel and has done some work with Enterprise Engine I believe.

Yea his buddy Joe Hellman's truck made it over to the ls1tech dot com web page. Those guys think 28 to 30 psi of boost is high. They claim if a ls1 could push that much boost it would be no contest, the Z car would eat him up. Then someone chimed in with a truer 80 to 100 psi of boost number and some called him a liar.



Jeff anf Joe build some mean street trucks. Hats off to both of them... ...

Is Jeff's truck manual? It seems like he's rowing thru the gears on the video.

 

[CumminFast]

Prince switched to a suncoast transmission. I have gotten a couple set of injectors from him, and he is first class.

On that run I think it's still a manual.

 

[JBlackwell]

I found a website yesterday that had a little about the truck and had some pics too. The truck was originally a 3/4 ton supposedly and he swapped out everything to be a dually. He also put a 6spd. in it at the time and that was a while back, but I still think he may have the same transmission in it.

Here is a lnk to Jeff's site

Jeff is a very nice guy

 

[DHRA]

Although I never have had the pleasure in meeting Jeff, Nowel and I referred to him as the O. G. Jeff was the first one that I knew of way into the 12-second range. I would think that he and Joe Hellman will be crowd favorites during the Pro Street Shootout next year.

 

[willyslover]

Nowel had some great names for lots of guys Eh Eric ... sure miss his old assss

 

[TxDieselKid]

You should of heard the great B. S session that I got to sit in on when Jeff and Nowel met in San Antoino at the frist Clash of the Titan race.



I think we all miss him Gary.

Ironic that this came up today. Last night a friend of mine said he had just gotten a video of a fast street driven diesel. I asked him where the truck was from... Texas was his reply. First to mind Jeff Prince. I asked him about the paint... yup. So he sent me the video. The video that I have has a Mustang in it. Ironic, the announcer is talking all the talk about the mustang... then says "Jeff Prince, with one of these Searious Diesel trucks. HE's running a Cummins... . blah blah mustang... blah blah"

Jeff beats the mustang, the announcer says "OH look at this for the truck, Look at that big number for the truck! These guys are NOT playing games!" :-laf



Keep up the good work Jeff!



(Edit: After finally getting my puter to read the first link... . it's the same video)
