1300rwhp in DHRA Truck Pull in WEST Virgina this weekend?

Just wondering where this is to be had.....The guys at Mass Diesel told me their sponsored truck built with support of Sheids and Haisley's and having 1300 rwhp on a tilt body chassis is competing for the first time this weekend. I'm not far away and if the truck is working....I'm there. ks

You ain't a kiddin. I got to see them pull in person the other night at the DHRA Pull in Owensville. They put on quite the show. Brad Ingram broke his rear end towards the end of the track and still won his class. That was by far the best pull we've had around here in a while.

Is that 1300 with or without drugs?

That`s the truck that was at Indy. They tried too do a pull to see how it would do, but they couldn't get it to move the sled more then a couple feet.

Hopefully they have things ironed out.

Once they get it going good, it will be in a class all by itself.

At IRP for some reason it didn't have any power going to the rear wheels, only the front wheels. The two front tires buried themselves, dug a hole immediately straight down upon starting. It was pretty neat. Almost up to the front axle too.

Here is a gallery from Chris Watson "Supersonic" on tdr with his "Still Smokin" truck.

As far as the Mod. class goes this has to be one of the cleanest out there. Proves you can have style and function.
