TowRig.com - Diesel Discussion and Tow Tech

Sorry guys I know this is a dumb-ass question and probably self-explanatory. I have an 85 f-250hd ext. cab with the 6.9 and an auto, and has anyone ever ran one at the track in somewhat stock form? mine only has aftermarket exhaust and a shift kit with 4.10 gears. i just got back from Iraq and i bought my truck from my dad so i havent had time to really beat the hell out of it. i was just curious. i went from an 82 F-100 stepside with a 393-stroker kit to my 85 diesel so it sure is an performance change.

I havent run one but I would guess low to mid 20's. And thank you for your service to our country!!

I appreciate the feed-back. I figured it would be like low 20's, but obviously a 21 year old N/A motor is'nt going to be like a Cummins or PSD with some Banks performance parts. Youre welcome for the service to the country. But now after two 1-year deployments to Iraq, I now know why it isnt on the Travel Channel. Aight, take it easy man, talk to you later.

Just like brisk said,THANKS for everything yall do. Being an army brat myself I kinda got an idea. Thanks again

That will put ya right up there with the old VW Golf. I saw a guy make a pass in one at New England Dragway years ago. He ticked the lights at just under 22 seconds. :shocked:

Diesel 101, Banks isn't much to look up to.:stir:

It will be fairly slow in the quarter, my neighbor has the same truck and it does ok but it isn't a racer. Probably somewhere in the 20's.

I'm saying 20's
