Fastest Duramax List- 1/4 Mile

Well as much as many people won't like it, if we are including tube chassis vehicles like the dirtymax, it looks like the banks truck is top of the heap. 8.64@150.
 
I should start a whole seperate catergory for that truck since it cost as much as the top 10 trucks put together.
 
Even though there will be harsh disagreement you must place the truck. I don't see any money separation betweeen any of the other trucks.
 
Hey Guys,
It seems that there are not a lot of Banks fans on this site, but I would like to provide some information about the Banks Sidewinder Type-D. First of all, I must offer some disclaimers. I am fairly new to this site, and most of what I read in relation to Banks is negative. Everyone is entitled to their opinions of course, but I find that providing facts where misinformation is prevalent will sometimes help. Secondly, I must say that I personally am not a drag racer. I have a lot of endurance and left turn racing in my background, but not much drag racing. My goal here is to provide some facts about our racing efforts and our business. If you have questions, please feel free to post them and I will do my best to provide answers. We do have some very experienced drag racers in our race shop that have made this project a success.

The Sidewinder Type-D is a former Pro-Stock S-10 chassis powered by a 6.6L LBZ Duramax. It has a Liberty Extreme 5-speed with a Bruno C-drive. The engine is actually one of our road-race builds and is currently tuned to over 1000 HP at the flywheel (the same engine makes about 780 HP when calibrated for endurance road racing, which has to last over 25 hours). It is running on #2 diesel and nitrous, no propane or other additives.

The truck ran 8.648 sec at 150.06 MPH in the ¼ mile at Fontana on Saturday, October 20th. It is now being prepped for the NHRA AC-Delco Nationals in Las Vegas this weekend. There is still a lot left in the truck. The power output will also improve when we do a purpose built drag race engine.

One of our requirements has always been no smoke. Proper tuning can achieve it. There are no exhaust treatment devices on the truck.

There will be some high performance products that will become available to the public out of this project. Right now you can place an order for the intake manifolds. If this is something that interests you, you can PM me.

There were some comments about large amounts of money going into this project. I think it is more appropriate to say that a lot of engineering, sweat and dedication by a talented crew are what brought this achievement to fruition.

If you would like to see more about the truck, check http://www.bankspower.com/DmaxTypeD-1.cfm.

Im throwing it on the list, just seeing what alittle sarcasm would produce.

I don't think you will find much fans of Banks on any diesel site. Heres a few that I can think of. Gales arrogance on TV, Gregs ego on the boards & a few more. You'll see the usual newbie that bought a banks product cause it has be good to be advertised everywhere get offensive when trash is talked. Usually takes a couple months on the boards till they realize that more power is available at a cheaper price & sell that tuner/part. Another reason is people get sick of the advertising assault thats in the diesel magazine with false claims. Yes your products are for the biggest market out there, people that never owned a diesel truck before & bought one in the last few years & want alittle more power/mileage, but a tuner that claims 150 more hp than stock at 1000 rpms is useless. At the top end youre lucky to see 50hp.
I for example borrowed a friends 6gun with the speedloader & gave him my Edge juice to try. I thought it was a complete dog & he sold his 6gun the next week & bought an Edge, that was just a regular juice not a hot one.
So if you continue to sell basic tuners & develop NASA type stuff you will never win on the diesel forums.
 
We should have a separate column for trucks that don't see any street use, or very little, like Dirtymax, and Type-D
 
Naw, if you wanted to exclude the Banks truck from the list, you'd do it because it's never run at a diesel event, not because it's tube chassis.

DirtyMax earned their place there by whupping it out in front of everyone at Vegas, Colorado, Texas, and other diesel events.

That's true
 
Just an FYI my best 10.86 @ 128 on Nitrous
My best # 2 pass is still Kat 11.00 @ 122 (driving Casper)
 
Mike, read the other 2 threads about it I think I was kinda mild. Their in the drag racing section & staging lanes.

Well I only get to see one big drag event each year and its at Indy. I hope to see the Orange Crush guys get on the top of that list.
 
By next year at Indy, it will take a 7 second ET to get to the top of the list.
