Shawn Baca's cummins Does 2k

So.....who would win on a dyno?

Find me one person who breathes through their nose, not their mouth, who is more impressed by a 2k spike and immediate carnage than 1700hp truck towing an enclosed trailer and race truck to the track, running well into the 9s smoke free after the 60' and then towing the trailer back home.

what vehicle made 1700?
 
I don't care if it is 1400 or 1700, Lavon and his truck are extemely impressive. Way more impressive than any dyno racer out there.

He isn't just driving it to the grocery store or driving it to the race track 30 minutes away. He is hooking 10k+ behind it and pulling it 8 hours, unhooking the trailer bolting drag radials on running #1 in points in the ODSS series, and then pulling the trailer back home.

I feel the same. I have mad respect for what he's built...

Exactly.

Since everyone danced around that one, I would say Baca has the potential to win that one on spray. I don't see Lavon shoving as much N2O into his motor just to hit a number. On fuel only it'd be an interesting matchup

Ha ha, I noticed that too. I'm sure Baca would appreciate all the comparisons to the baddest all-around truck in the nation.

What I don't get is that there are plenty of badass trucks around....this thread and all the talk of all-around performance actually made me call Brian Carter, who ran 9's in his dually (on slicks) like 5 years ago. He never made huge power on the dyno (or wanted to) but it was an animal on the track.

Lots of trucks make power, but even more are just show queens. It would be nice to see more folks just be happy for another diesel out there that's close to 2K on a dyno uncorrected.

yeah , except the mirror selfie , that's a deal breaker for me.

Baca is coming to the gauntlet next year, Lavon is welcome to come as well (Obviously) I'd actually like to see that happen.

As for the truck being used for anything else, he's driven it on the streets. It's registered and insured. He built it for dynos though. He has another truck for pulling, hell he used to have that old 12v Black Pearl. I don't think he has any intentions of putting it on the track, but it has been talked about it.

Does it always get driven on the street with no tail lights?
