@@stefaneichhorn4973 never happened. thats a big swing on setup. With enough time to test high 6's/low 7's. Hero pass could be in 6.5-6.6 (be warned i know jack shit compared to these guys, and these speeds. im lucky to run 6.70s in the 8th with my junk)
I love that having one of the fastest diesels on the planet isn't enough. But you spend the time to dial in something as insignificant as pilot quantity because it has to idle like a stocker too.
Love seeing a Diesel get this much love and technology and see it set these records. Congrats guys, you folks deserve all the glory you can get for your hard work. AMAZING>
Congrats guys, I’m a big diesel fan and it makes me happy to see a diesel give the worlds fastest gas dragsters a run for their money. Rudolph Diesel and Clessie Cummins would be proud!
Holy hell man that's awesome. Absolutely love that you're addressing the problems you had like all the down time waiting on a track to be cleaned or whatnot from the fuel door not being shut, that's really stand up of you. Very humble racer I'm glad I subbed.
Holy shit. I’m new to the truck so to be honest I was kinda rolling my eyes during until you clicked off a 4.1 hit. Congratulations on a 3 second diesel fellas , much respect.
Tuned diesels would be so much less stigmatized if people aimed for this instead of the coal-rolling tunes a certain subset of diesel owners pride themselves on.
@@Jandoranis I completely agree. Banks did the best job I’ve ever seen in their S10. That’s was many years ago and should have been the benchmark required to be met from then on. Big thanks goes out to all the tuners that encouraged it by selling “smoke tunes”.
Man I'm so happy for you guys. First RUclips video on a while to have me on the edge of my seat felt like I was watching my own car make a pass you guys deserve it.
Hell yes!!!!! Waiting on it last year and yesterday wasn't looking promising for you guys to come out today and freaking LAID IT THE F DOWN!!!!!! Congratulations you guys deserve that and to think you will only dial it in and get faster!!! 👍👍👍👊
Never seen you guys before, first video for me, just thought it was really cool how you guys add in the mistakes and take account for them, A LOT of other racers wouldn't. Oh and that truck is fast asffffff. Good job guys subbed
The hard work, persistence and team work was just fantastic. Haven't commented when it first happened because didn't have the proper words to say. You guys are a true group. Thanks for all you do.
Congratulations for the 3,99 pass and for the content. Could you guys show around some nice stuff there for us poor mfers who can't afford the $150 for floracing
Congratulations Levon in to your team that’s a wonderful thing to put it in the threes the Cummins top dog. This is six in a row jim now I’ll give you three guesses what’s under the hood of my 91.5 Dodge anyway good job man good job
Wow! You guys are killing it! Looks like by far the most difficult part is putting all that torque to the pavement, without blowing the tires loose. It’s a fine line...
You don't get diesel rotaries. There was an experimental motor built in the 70's by Rolls Royce but that was a massive marine engine if I remember correctly.
I imagine if you made some custom rotors and crank the compression required could be achieved, I mean Japanese people are building robotic exoskeleton suits and Richard Browning has developed a jet pack system the Flys almost like Iron Man but you say diesel rotary is a no. Hmmmm...
Congrats Fellas. Frustrating couple days I’m sure with the minor issues standing in the way every time but you sorted them and made it happen. Good shit 🤙🏼
Great project fellas! @7:33 thru 8:22 having to try and listen thru the wrestling match with the tower was ruff, but hey,, what ya gonna do. Likely the tower was quiet until you started recording and then (never fails eh!) wah lah,, the speaker decided to talk! LOL.
Congrats guys, you deserve it!
Yo!
Thanks!
These are mad props!
Whats about the 1/4 mile? I'm interested what time it runs...

Y’all rock with the reality. A lot of people don’t understand the trials and failures that come before the single moment of triumph
Without failure there is no success.
I like how these guys even said sorry on RUclips for making people wait,. So genuine!
Just edit it out

It’s that attention to detail that makes you thee fastest
Well said! And it does idle like a stick engine, with straight pipes...
Imagine your friend starting their drag car and it sounds like a diesel truck.
Congrats guys. Most don’t know what it’s takes to run that number. Let alone in a diesel combo. Great job and keep pecking away at it.
So pumped for you guys. Could hear the emotion in Lyn's voice. Well deserved.

Firepunk in the history books once again! Congrats guys. All that work was worth it.
I saw the title and read 3s and I was like whaaaaaaa and then I realized it was 1/8th
I'm assuming this is a 6 second deisel in the 1/4 running and 1/8 mile that fast
Holy hell man that's awesome.

F-n-A guys, struggle bus captain to hero in 3.998 seconds!!! I got goosebumps just watching so savor that one team, you earnt it!
The smoke output is amazing!!! Somebody does a kick ass job tuning that thing!!

I have no idea how Diesel tuning works but I love technical details.
Much the same as Gas tuning. Burn more fuel.
@@joepickles8689 not how gas tuning works at all
@@FirstLast-vv6lv Please elaborate.
@@joepickles8689 gas tuning requires delicate balance between the air to fuel ratio, as well as timing. Diesel tuning is just add fuel.
@@FirstLast-vv6lvLike I said. A few more details, but ultimately burn more fuel.........

Congratulations guys, you deserve it and I see it getting faster. Can wait to see in at a Nc event
Dang, I never thought I would see a diesel in the 3s
Wow! You guys are killing it! Looks like by far the most difficult part is putting all that torque to the pavement, without blowing the tires loose. It’s a fine line...
Very fine line for sure!
So excited for you guys! Congratulations! 👏🔥👏🔥🇺🇸🇺🇸
💪 heck yeah boys👊 CONGRATS YALL DESERVE IT FOR SURE🤘
Hot damn, thing idles like your grandpa's old diesel truck while performing like a top fuel dragster.
Amazing job!
Way to go guys! Love seeing this truck break records without rolling coal!
Congratulations guys!!! Thanks for show to the world the power of diesel engines!!!!!
Nice! Reminds me when the Crowmod and Murder Nova went 3.99 but you guys did it with a diesel. 💪
This video was very well made. Watching from the perspective of someone brand new to watching drag racing.
Congratulations you worked so hard and it paid off great job
Congratulations! I was at ucc when it ran 4.27 and thought that was fast.
4:27 is fast!!
Stoked for you guy's, well deserved. Congrats!
well done - 1st time viewer and new subscriber. I love diesel!!!
A Diesel motor going that fast awesome, I had a 6.2 diesel Scottsdale, it was a terd. It went into a Run away and blew it up.
Love what you guys do as well. Great job. 😁🙃👍
Awesome guys! All that behind the scenes knuckle-busting was 100% worth it right!
Congratulations guys.
Y'all seem like a bunch of good hard working folks.
👍
this channel is so underrated
That’s amazing! Your whole crew is at another level! Congratulations
That unit is wicked. Good job 👍
you guys are the reason I run hot shots secret in my personal truck. great job!!!
Congratulations and good luck the rest of the week..!
good job guys i was screaming like Rick Flair and Clapping at the end woww!!!! Fire Punk FTW!!!
SO FRICKIN PUMPED, Love what you guys are doing, CONGRATS!
Hell Yeah!!! Amazing to see goals reached!!
Congratulations on the 3 second pass! Hoping to see the Firepunk team at diesels on the beach this weekend.
Fabulous job putting this vid together, like those runs just top notch!
Congratulations and best wishes from Atlanta!
That thing MOOOOOOVES! Duuuuuuuuuuuude!
Congrats guys best in the business!!!!!
Congrats guys its amazing to see a Diesel truck go that fast.
That's incredible! Looks like an absolute beast, congrats! Its amazing what a well tuned diesel can do.
So awesome! Can’t wait to see what the rest of this weekend holds! Congrats to the entire team!!
I want to see a diesel powered 4 rotor!
Please make my dream come true!
You can do that?
Not me no but someone no doubt. I just want to know what one sounds like
I don't know if that can happen, diesal engines need a shit time of compression, much more than a rotary can make.
You don't get diesel rotaries. There was an experimental motor built in the 70's by Rolls Royce but that was a massive marine engine if I remember correctly.

Congrats fellas!! Super fucking awesome! 🤜🏻🤛🏻🚂🚦
Once again I'll say they seem like a great group of guys and congratulations! Gnarly
183mph in 3.99 seconds! First reaction, let's see if we can go faster this afternoon! 😂
Congrats guys. Awesome job and awesome pass. Keep up the great work.
congrats!!! team work makes the dream work

Yes, and at Lights Out, the announcers never stop!
Damn! Seems like right after the take off you gotta pull that chute! Nice👍
Congrats on that 3!!
need to come down and see this thing. keep it up!!!!
Congratulations gentlemen
Nice. Good job firepunk diesel, your guys rock. Love watching your videos🤟
Congratulations Team Firepunk, I knew you would do it!!))
Now 3's will just be a thing...... Same as the Double backflip with Pastrana.... But you guys have the key to that castle. Congrats....
Damm thes really fast!
The fact that top fuelers are that fast at nearly double the distance makes my minde boggle! 😳🤯
A Diesel in the 3's!That's F'n crazy!Awesome!
Congrats guys great job you guys deserve it many blessings from Kissimmee FL
And that's how the cookie crumbles :) , love to see what this could do in the 1/4 but i know its a whole other ball game.
That is a serious million dollar operation there. Congrats
Congrats. I am sure you will even get faster as you progress.
Congratulations you guys work very hard to do it
Epic. Nice sound these beasts make. The trucks sound good too@!
wow, who knew. other than the black smoke and non aggressive sound of the diesel motor that's bad ass.
@Bob Stork not quite. Top Fuel funny cars run 1000ft in under 3.8 at 330mph. This diesel truck is running 3.9 over 660 ft at maybe 200 mph.
Wow this is awesome !! It’s amazing how clean this truck runs....
congratulations guys 😬 🙌🏻🤘🏻
Awesome, I wish those guy from Thailand can join y'all, a all diesel match
Congrats you guys, well earned!!
Congrats guys! Go back it up tonight!
Congratulations fellas 👏 🤘😎
Well done guys congrats 🥳 and love the content
Nice work guys! Onwards and upwards!
Congrats guys! You earned it
Nicely done!!
