Cummins-powered Dodge Truck Smokes Camaro ZL1 at the Strip

Winning a quarter mile showdown against a 12-second Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 might sound easy, but it takes a good car and a skilled driver to get to the other side of the 1320 ahead of GM's powerful musclecar.
However, the ZL1 wasn't much of a threat for the triple turbo Cummins-powered Dodge pickup truck you're about to see below. Sure, a beefed-up truck is likely to win against a (mostly) stock musclecar, but that doesn't make the diesel pickup's run less impressive.

Not to mention that the Dodge needed 10.4 seconds to complete the run and crossed the line at 130.2 mph (209.8 km/h). That's something the owner should be proud of.

Looking for more lightning-fast trucks? Then you should check out the 1,700 hp Silverado and the 12-second TRD Tundra we wrote about last month.
