Back in the day here in Kansas we had mini rods. They were so fun to watch! They didn't need to have 8,000hp to compete! It took skill and some luck! The winners rarely had over 400hp.

Watching the track safety staff (especially with that runaway diesel) is comical. Half the time they’re running around with no ideas/wondering what to do with a pathetic sized fire extinguisher 😂😂😂

Yep, that’s an expensive haul across country, to blow it up, load the truck back up, and head back home to start wrenchin and ordering parts.

Seeing so many engines burst into flame makes me wonder why the safety personnel on the track don't keep extinguishers with them.Why do they always run around looking for one. There should be several located along the side of the track.

Awesome! Just a thought but I wonder if it’s time to start designing some kind of a wheel restraint -like they have for monster trucks- so theses big pulling tractor tires that break off don’t roll into the crowd and crush somebody.

If he could have gotten it right into the air intake it would kill it by displacing oxygen. No air, no combustion.

All these engines are running way to rich on fuel and not enough air all that black exhaust smoke is unburnt fuel and with very high EGT the engine go boom run that engine lean of 18:1 and 24:1 air to fuel ratio the engine will be happier rolling coal is not good on a diesel engine and can cause very high and dangerous EGT's which can egnyte the unburnt fuel in the exhaust system.
@bravoA-su8xm2 жыл бұрын
Diesel fuels contain 85% carbon 15% hydrogen. At stoichiometry, all the oxygen is consumed. When you enrich the mixture beyond stoichiometry, you continue to consume all the oxygen, but the hydrogen in the fuel begins to preferentially consume the oxygen instead of the carbon. Hydrogen having a much greater heat content than carbon, you get more heat (and power) out of the combustion process and a higher temperature, despite the unburned carbon passively soaking up some of that heat.

@@bravoA-su8xm Diesel Engines run better and have more power output running lean not rich because diesel fuel has a much higher BTU output so it's safer to run on a leaner mixture and with diesel engine compression ratios that range from 14:1 to as high as 25:1 then you factor the turbo boost range from 40 to as high as 100 PSI the amount of cylinder pressure in the engine with very high EGT's these engines have a very failure rate you can't tune a diesel engine like you can a gasoline engine a runaway Diesel Engine is a Diesel Engine that is running on it's own engine oil usually caused by a blown turbo that is caused by very high EGT's for extended period of time because the engine exhaust system to start glowing almost white.
