THIRD PLACE

CORY WITTEVEEN / DELTA DIESEL

QUARTER MILE: 11.17 sec. DYNO: 1,397 hp / 2,328 lb-ft SLED PULL: 282 feet One of the most serious mechanical trucks in either the qualifiers or the main event was Cory Witteveen’s monster-turbo, third-generation Ram, which was fitted with an old-school 12-valve engine. Witteveen had the same issues as Peterson, as he saw high mph in the quarter but couldn’t get the elapsed time down. On the dyno he cranked out an impressive 1,397 rwhp with just a slight whiff of nitrous, but the sled pull was where the truck really shone with a 282-foot run. Once Witteveen gets his ride dialed in for 2019, he should be a serious player.
