  • crd power

  • boy that thing can run man. look at that

  • Have you ever seen a truck that can SKI ON DRY LAND?! HAHA!! Love it!

  • this is one bad ass diesel 

  • dude that diesel eats those alcohol engines for breakfast....

  • check out south bend clutch mud rail.

  • my brther has the same problem with the spool up on his cummins mud truck too. He fixed it by putting the nitrous port going into the turbo at a angle so it spins the compresser wheel too make it spool faster,

  • HAHAHAHAHA. The guy with the siren is at all the races.

  • Ha ha... crazy Americans with their crazy powered trucks! Love it! I really enjoy your approach to motor sport, put a massive engine in it and tune and turbo the bejesus out of it! Love the exhaust sticking out of the bonnet, blowing huge smoke out. Sweet truck. :)

  • @Eyeball1975 Thanks, this was an experiment to see if we could make a diesel engine run as fast as an alcohol engine. Thanks for being a fan!

  • @TNunnelee Well you certainly achieved your goal, that thing is a beast. I have seen a lot of powerful trucks on here, with 1000bhp and 1000 nM, but the way this thing revs and goes is awesome. Good stuff! :)

  • @Eyeball1975 its only a 5.9. not a massive engine. almost comparable to a 350 sbc in displacement.

  • What kinda crap is that track. The driver on it inside lane always has the advantage, the splash and spray drowns out the outside lane.

  • @Boomer8404 You know, that has been my complaint too. The race it pretty much won at the start, because who ever can get ahead is going to take that inside lane (thats how we usually win if we are on the outside).

  • @Boomer8404 thats y u got to hold ur line let him hit u or hit him

  • damn!!!!!!!!!!!!..i hit the replay button about 4 times!! haha...thats sweet seein a diesel in mud racing!

  • crepe.

  • what kind of rpm's is that engine running?

  • what cry babys u one fair and square

  • do you live in minden..

  • Nope, Eudora Arkansas....if you have ever heard of it, most people blink and pass right through it.

  • @TNunnelee that rig is wicked. it lauches wicked. 1k ft lbs torque. mmmmmmmmm

  • Yeah I seen on yalls video that the first time I guess it was they would not let y'all come back the next night

  • When are y'all coming to the Sheridan track?I have seen you run before in louisiana in person and alot of people ask why you don't come. Our last race is the 25th of September Which is on a Saturday

  • Hey Thumper573,

     We are actually not running at all this summer, we decided to work on our tractor pulling truck instead. We do plan on getting back in next summer....we definitely had more fun mud racing that tractor pulling. So see you next summer.

  • the people who have problems with him racing a diesel, are lightweights . ignore them. let them choke on your smoke i say.

  • obviously not just the motor,but a good driver too...a good sportsman would congratulate you for beating them...cry babies allways cry foul...keep up the good work and be safe

  • Thanks philtripe, fans like you make all of this worth the trouble we go through with this.

  • seeexy ;)

  • That thing is badass. Who's trans are they running? I don't know of any 47/48re's that are fond of mud...

  • Ha, that I can tell. Its a special transmission built by Costello Racing out of Kilborne Louisiana. He makes the BEST racing transmissions!

  • your moven some air!!! to bad you cant run a smaller twin and pick up the low end the big turbo can pick up

  • Comment removed

  • p-pump?

  • Oh yea!

  • @TNunnelee how big is it?

  • Dang man,that's sick.You run the ball's off that thing.Love it.Keep it up.

  • holy shit that thing is BADASS. i live in monroe and didnt even know about this event. is there a website i can go to for dates?

  • If your'e doing serious mud bogging, whatever your'e running, you want to protect the intake from mud and water, correct?

  • WOW!! damn that is impressive, good to see diesel power playing in the mud, don't see that in missouri!

  • just awesome

  • At first I didn't believe Mr. Hensley could make the diesel work in a mud racing application, although I admired his spirit and engineuity. I know see that I may have been wrong. Congratulations Chester.

  • 12v?

  • nope 24v

  • Like a freight train!

  • Looks like it has a hell of a push with all that weight on the nose! Keep up the good work, def. a new application for a modded diesel.

  • Yep, once we get the kinks worked out, it should be unstoppable.

  • Nah, it was still an experimental motor. We had it dino tested and thought we had everything worked out, but this was the first time we brought it out and ran so long...we ended up with engine failure in the last video. We will be back this year.

  • What happened in the last video? COuldn't respool after the pit?

  • Chester told me about this video today. That is one fast truck. Keep up the good work guys. Ray...

  • Ray, Chester speaks VERY highly of you. I have to admit I too am impressed with the truck YOU built. We hauled a large camper to Talladega last year and it pulled and ran like a cadillac! Everyone was VERY impressed.

  • I'd love to build a dodge that already has the cummins so i can run stock and modified class. check out off road tuscaloosa!

  • Man that track looks awsome! We are in discussion on weather our truck could survive a track like that.  Are there any diesels in competition there? Looks like a bunch of high power alcohol or gas burners.

  • What's he running for drivetrain, I know it takes a hell of a stout drivetrain to hold that kinda power with tractor tires

  • its a mixture of a Chevy powerglide trans and a stock 208 transfercase and all summed up with a 14 bolt GM rear axle. Oh and there is a GM corp10 front axle. Thats about all I can tell you without giving out our trade secrets.

  • How in the heck does that 208 and 10 bolt live, they have to hate life at that power level

    BTW, what the truck make for power anyway

    BItchin ride none the less

  • I never thought a diesel would do that,its very fast.

  • Hi have personally met Chester and been in this truck and it is bad ass!! He is very smart with these things and i expect many good things out of him. I hope to go and meet him and watch him race and hopefully sumhow help out beacause i have been to his shop and he is a great mechanic!

    This is going to be one of the best things ever in this sport and the diesel community!

  • I have to admit Chester and I have been trying to figure out whom you are? Can you give us a hint?

  • Lol. I am the kid that he met from ohio around christmas time of 2008

  • dis is tight fukin way good

  • Thanks, man! We feel the same way. We are hoping to get some sponsors, we are kind of weekend warriors at the moment.

  • AWESOME!!!

    I got to give it to you guys! That is a great thing for not only mud racing, but the entire diesel community! Glad to see it is comming together for you!

  • i think ull soon be kicked out of that class.. dont look like the little gasser can keep up.

  • You may be correct... This was the first time we dominated and some people I don't think were very happy about it. Unfortunately there are no other classes...Super Modified is the highest class.

  • That is a bad truck. Why was it missing at the end though? Did he hurt the motor?

  • We ended up having minor engine failure. Due to excessive heat, a valve seat failed. We were not in the points race so we stopped racing to prevent further damage. It was only a year ago that we first ran this idea of a Cummins Race engine to the AMRA (check my other videos, the SPEED channel was there and filmed it. That was the first time it was ever raced) This year was fine tuning, next year we plan on competing!

  • holy hell that is awesome
