These Sleeper Diesel Trucks Give Sports Cars a Run for Their Money!

The world of drag racing has always seemed to be dominated by lightweight and agile sports cars. Naturally, when you start adding power to these things, they are a lot easier make go fast not only because of the power to weight ratio but also because the lack of weight is a lot easier on all of the parts in between that are already beefed up to start with. In the long run, it might save you a couple of bucks when you compare to upgrading a heavier vehicle.

However, the trend of racing trucks has been coming around strong and seems to have gotten to the point where it’s here to stay! These days, when you roll up on 4×4 pick up truck, you never know if it’s going to be quick or not and if it’s powered by a diesel engine, you’d better take a second look because these things will sneak up and bite you when you’re least expecting it!

This time, Cecil County Dragway is the scene of the action in this video that showcases a whole collection of diesels that go up against a myriad of sports cars and end up giving them a run for their money. Most of the time, the pickups even end up going home with victory over the cars that are much lighter and, to the unsuspecting eye, would seem to be a lot more likely to win at a glance.

Ride along with the heavyweight experience down in the video below and tell us what you think of this collection of races that has these big bad trucks opening up a can of whoop-ass!
