Default 10.65 @ 130.x MPH: World's Quickest Schoolbus?

Casper is a 2005 Extended Cab GMC 4x4 Sierra Diesel. It has a single turbo and a small .070" shot of nitrous up on the big end. It weighs 6280lb.

It is a daily driver that is used to take the kids to school and pickup and deliver parts. 23 mpg.

But it's timeslips? Scary:

WARNING Long Video. The truck in the other is a Concrete Cummins. This is a big inch grout-filled block with 2 huge turbochargers. It must be towed to and from lanes, since it has no cooling system, nor can it drive at partial throttle very well.

Casper is perhaps the world's quickest true street diesel. And it's not a Cummins.

BADASS!! Looks like they were spraying something in the cummins to keep it running while in was staging? The cummins doesnt look very streetable.

The engine is 758rwhp on #2 before using a .07" nitrous jet on the big end.

The Cummins required huge amounts of ether to keep it running, and even then it took over a minute to get it to spool the chargers. It has to be towed everywhere.

Casper on the other hand:
