Sidewinder Type D Update thread.

I have a few more details about the Sidewinder Type-D’s performance today. The truck has gotten faster and quicker with each successive run. On it’s 5th full throttle run ever, it clocked a ¼ mile E.T of 8.225 seconds at 164.67 MPH. Here are a few facts that are worth consideration:

At 8.225 seconds in the ¼ mile, the Type-D is now the Quickest Diesel Pickup on record, besting the 8.312 E.T. from the Dr. Performance Dodge Dakota.

At 164.67 MPH in the ¼ mile, it is also the Fastest Diesel Pickup on record, besting the 164.23 speed of the Dakota.

The Dr. Performance truck ran on the same track on the same day and was not able to beat the performance of the Type-D.

The Type-D was smoke free all day, while the Dakota smokes an incredible amount. Both trucks use nitrous. The Type-D has no form of exhaust treatment (such as a DPF).

The Type-D runs on ONE CP 3.3 fuel injection pump.

Preparation work on the Type-D began on October 8th. By October 20th, it was the quickest and fastest Duramax-powered pickup truck on its third pass down the track, and by October 25th it became the quickest and fastest diesel pickup truck on record, having official times at the NHRA AC-Delco Nationals in Las Vegas. There is still more left in the truck.
 
So you're saying that no one has busted a 7 at "any" point in time with a Diesel?


BTW, nice times! I'd like to see the runs in video, got a link?

.....and it starts already. I was told the Dr.P truck ran its 8.39 @169mph.:poke:


Once again, this is why I will never buy another Banks product.
 
definitely a quick truck, and they seem to know what they're doing. But is everyone at Banks the same? They sound like a rolling billboard generated by the the computer. Hell maybe if they just talked like a normal person they'd get a little more respect.. who knows.
