The sport of truck racing and tractor pulling requires a rig that delivers the horsepower to outperform the competition. With the right aftermarket accessories that can deliver on the power to finish ahead of the pack a number of Detroit diesel series 60 turbo trucks has been proving that they have what it takes to blow the doors off any diesel that they go up against. After receiving turbo diesel service the rigs that were once mocked for lacking the CAT are able to outperform even the toughest competitor. Engine performance that is enhanced though the additions of ECM, Cam, a turbo and injectors, builds the horsepower that a diesel engine on the track needs to be a winner.
Racing is all about horsepower and while the experience of the driver makes the race exciting it is what is under the hood that counts when crossing the finish line first. What many drivers want is the ability to press the throttle and feel the instant surge of power that moves their truck forward and into the pole position. Whether speeding down the track, being put side by side in a drag race or out pulling a competitor in an all out battle of strength the right parts that add to the power being delivered to the drive axles are what makes winners.
Out on the highway the semitrailers that are on the road also benefit from the addition of Detroit diesel turbo. Pulling power to tow an 80,000 lbs trailer is delivered from the engine to the drive train with the enhancements that not only increase the towing capacity, but that improve the fuel economy of the big rig as well. Modifications that are proving to be a benefit to anyone out on the open road are adding miles to the fuel tank and delivering the power that is needed to push through the roughest weather conditions to make a delivery on time. With more power to climb hills and ability to maneuver over the asphalt without breaking a sweat independent owner operators are able to go further between fill ups.
Imagine a 500 hp turbo diesel engine being able to haul a load of freight sown the highway. Now put that same pulling power to work on the track and say goodbye to the CAT systems that are claiming to be the best. For any driver of the Detroit diesel series 60 turbo the road is fun again. Whether racing around a circuit, powering through the quarter mile, or easing down the road for a job nothing beats the satisfaction of dropping down the gears and feeling the raw power of the turbo diesel service power plant ripping up the road.
