Scheid Diesel Silverline Dragster Rail Sets National Record



 

The Scheid Diesel Silverline diesel dragster made history at the Muncie Dragway, October 18, 2008 in Muncie, IN, and is now the official DHRA National Record holder for the fastest diesel powered vehicle in the quarter-mile.
 
Scheid Diesel Silverline™ Race Team driver Bo Layne made the diesel record-breaking quarter-mile run of 6.908 seconds at 203.71 mph. This is the first and currently the only diesel powered vehicle to break the 200 mph barrier in the quarter-mile. Silverline Stainless Steel Exhaust by ANSA, a proud to sponsor of the Scheid Diesel Dragster for the 3rd year in a row, congratulated the team on reaching a major milestone.
