10,000-Pound 1/8-Mile Trailer Tow - Diesel Power Challenge 2017


The 10 competitors of Diesel Power Challenge 2017 Presented by XDP are at Bandimere Speedway, where their trucks are being put to the test of towing a loaded utility trailer (approximately 10,600 pounds) through a single eighth-mile dragstrip pass. The quickest time wins the event. Watch as more than 9 tons of diesel fury thunders down the strip. Starting October 9th, 2017, host Brian Lohnes takes you through our weeklong torture test that features 6 competitive events, 10 trucks, and 23,172.2 combined horsepower and torque at the rear wheels. We push Cummins-, Duramax-, and Power Stroke–powered trucks well beyond their limits in this search for the ultimate street-legal diesel truck and driver.
