The Mother's car show is on ESPN2 and they just showcased a truck that will be trying for the Land Speed Record this year.

A Ford F-150 that will be running in the Unlimited Diesel catagory.
They hope for 250-275MPH with a super-narrowed F-250 body and a modified diesel engine.
Think they're a using a Power-Stroke?...............................

BUUUZZZZZ wrong answer, thanks for playing.......

One CUMMINS 5.9 sits behind the cab.

BTW Bank$ hit 222MPH with a Cummins in a FULL SIZE Dakota. ;D


Edited to correct errors.

 

Why does that not surprise me? 8)

 

Who's making the truck? 2 5.9ISB's will be pretty heavy. they must have a [censored] amount of mods to beat the Bank$ truck. I dont understand some of these people. lol <br>SD03

 

He said they were &quot;aiming&quot; for 275 mph. They estimated the weight of it all at 5000 lbs. Didn't catch who was building it though. Ugly looking rig IMO.

 

I have seen that one before, cool stuff. As for who is building it, ENTERPRISE ENGINE has it in their page. Click on that link, and scroll down to see pics.

 

I think y'all are mis hearing/reading the info on this truck. Enterprises' web site says the truck has twin turbos, not twin Cummins. Not that twin Cummins with twin turbos would be a bad thing... ;D

 

HMMMMM you might be right, that was one Loooooooong truck.

I stand corrected........that's what happens when you &quot;surf&quot; and try to watch TV at the same time.

PS Edited the 1st post.

 

that aint no truck <br>i dont know what the hell that is ????? but it aint no truck....<br>maybe a SUPERPOWERed soapbox ;D
