Some people here might be interested in the Pinks All-out that will air August 14th. It was filmed this past weekend at the Atlanta Dragway in Commerce, GA.

I was tied up working with my car and never got to watch it, but from what I hear, a Cummins powered diesel made the final 16 cut and the crowd absolutely loved the truck! (I know for a fact it was a diesel and the crowd loved it, I just never got to see the truck to confirm what kind, specs, etc. Was told it was a 4wd Cummins with drag radials at all 4 corners though). Must have been pretty stout as they chose a 10.30 field!

 

That truck would be the 'black mamba'(not sure who owns the truck exactly). There is a video of one of the passes it made over on CompD

 

The Black Mamba is owned by Darren Morrison (Pro Street Diesel) out of Cairo, GA - Darren also owns a Pro Mod S-10 w/ a twin turbo Cummins which currently runs low 5's in the 1/8 mile

My husband (Micky Davis) has been driving the Black Mamba since Darren moved up to the Pro Mod class... We made it to the second round @ Pinks, where we lost by .032 seconds

We had a blast though... the PINKS crew and the crowd was extremely impressed by the Black Mamba....

We ran a 10.40 @ 126.58 mph Friday night during time trials and a 10.35 @ 127.06 mph on the first official run on Saturday... We heard that the second run was a 10.33 pass but I can't swear to it... Last year @ the Hayes Mopar event in Commerce, the Black Mamba made a 10.31 pass

It is a twin turbo Cummins, 4wd, 5,500 lb truck running on diesel fuel only

Here are the two video links...

Looks like it can stop just as good as it can go. Nice job driving.

 

Amen to that! Wayto be aware! And I love the surprise from the audio on that first vid... nice truck!

 

x3 on that man that could have been a bad deal. that was close

 

That second run was amazing. How he did not hit that mustang I will never know. Way to drive dude. That is one sick truck!!

 

Not sure if this was the episode being talked about here, but I was watching Speed TV this morning and Pinks All Out had a black Dodge in the 16. I saw it make it past the first round, but I had to leave for work before the show was over.

 

Yeah i watched it last night on speed TV!!! That dodge was sweet! single stack and man did it pour some black smoke. It was by far a crowd favorite and had all the guys on pinks pullin for him. They had a lot of really good races on this episode too. Most were very very close

 

If that trucks runnin 10's what the heck is the mustang runnin

 

Wow awsome driving, thats some scary stuff to be in that mustang (probably a 9 second mustang)

Dang, that is a real nice running truck!!

Congrats on those awesome numbers *thumbs up* Was quite something to watch that truck slow down and just bump that mustang, geez.

 

i was just getting ready to ask if anyone knew that black dodge and here is a thread already about it. That sure was a good running truck and did the diesel community well.

 

I was at the taping that weekend. The Dodge was by far my favorite as well as most of the crowd. I really hope PINKS comes back again, I'll be there.
