Ya that car is here in Denver and I have been around it several times. Fastest I ever seen it run here was like a high 9 or low 10. I think its come along way since then.

"Although dragster engines rarely survive for long due to the massive stress imposed by racing, the 5.9-liter Cummins engine has never even broken a major part – a fitting testament to the inherent strength of the design"

Thanks for the nice comments
Hey guys-
Thanks for the kind words guys. I don't know how many of you know, but in November we went to California and we ran a 7.98 @ 167.43 mph. We have really shown the gas burners what a diesel can do. The scary thing is, there is A LOT more performance in that engine. I don't know what the article said, but the engine still has a completely stock short block. Pretty amazing. Keep checking our website www.cumminsracing.com for updates. This year, I promise is going to be awesome, and there will be many records broken, maybe even the infamous 200 mph barrier. Take it easy guys.

Was that at the Winter Nationals in Fontana? I saw a Cummins Dragster there, I don't know how many of you guys there are around...
It was annoying that it had to be ran as an exhibition... Could it be possible to get one running in pro stock or something if one was totally bombed?
(And please, don't make it into a bracket racer... Anything but that...)
