Not worried about any thing but a 7 second time slip now,
Everytime I make a goal I have achieved it!
I have a lot of respect for the Keating truck, and it will run faster, I will predict a mid 8 second run next year, but by them I will be running in NHRA Top Sportsman where the minimum dial is 7. 95 to do this I am spending every day, working on two new motors, the long blocks, and turbo’s are identical the fueling is very different.
I have been very open with the build up of these motor, the likes of these diesel drag racing engines have never been seen, maybe they work, maybe that don’t, but a engine dyno is the real test, and I will likely run one of these motors on the pump , till its worn out , before it ever see the frame rails of my truck, if I had had to make any of these races, I would have , but there were no world championships on the line , and I was working at a break neck pace to make Houston if Keating had have gotten a clean pass and got the public record , although in testing like him I have run considerable faster them my public record , and don’t use those times because only a few teams , also testing were there.
weight is the deciding factor , and before any one starts crying I weight less , Edge started with a clean sheet of paper , all five of the diesel chassis truck are just that a purpose built race truck. And when you buy, or commission some one to build you a chassis you have quite a few choices. These trucks are close to $100,000 for a bare chassis, and just like deciding what turbo’s to run of a billet sigma pump to run you can specify what a builder delivers to you door. .
And about the Diesel Power cover, I was also shot for one of the next few issues, but when you put advertising dollars as a leverage point the magazines print fabrications.
I have never missed a call to the line, so the challenge still stands if you have something to run bring it out or refrain from insinuating that you do, and the Edge / DD organization has a more then a few leaks, some leaks are near the top, and I hear a lot, and it doesn’t look promising for any real performance outing, unless they have some new pipe bent, meaning a new chassis
For the people that don’t like my brashness, for this thread, I’m not in this for a popularity contest, I have started to achieve my goals from this truck, in spite of a lot of people trying to thwart my progress in public relation, a new deal is in the works, and will be the deal that really puts diesel in the main stream advertising media market, and in the publics eye. Any one here would fight for something they have worked hard for, and invested themselves in, when some corporation comes along and fabricates a untruth, and uses their propaganda machines advertising dollars to bullies the press in to proclaiming this MEGA MENTAL LIE
