The Iconic Scheid Diesel Extravaganza Event.
There is something sensational about the Scheid Diesel Extravaganza (SDX), it brings a certain level of excitement that few diesel events can match. What started off years ago as a rally of diesel enthusiast get together, Scheid’s has now evolved and grown into a main attraction, possibly the Superbowl, of power and performance events for diesel trucks, tractors, and even semi-trucks. Everyone in attendance at SDX can expect nothing less than an absolute power packed, ear piercing, ground shaking outdoor competitive event. Scheid’s diesel has done an outstanding job of building up SDX event over the years but it also takes having amazing competitors, gobs of aftermarket vendors, and incredible event sponsors to make this event as fantastic as it is. Many vendors and sponsors invest a lot to come out to this event and show their support. Lucas Oil Pro Pulling League and the ODSS drag racing head up the main sponsors followed up by many class sponsors like JAMO Performance, Edge Products, Maryland Performance Diesel, Firepunk Diesel, HotShot Secret's, Suncoast Performance, Flo-Pro Exhauast, Diesel Power, ATS Diesel Performance, FASS Fuel and many others. Take a moment and look around at the variety of top-notch products that are on display, show some support to the people and the companies that invest in keeping the best of the industry moving forward. The biggest attraction at SDX is the competition sled pulling event. Huge crowds pile up to watch the most powerful diesels in the nation lined up one after the other keeping the energy of the show raging on as the grounds shake with dirt track action. Patty from Haisley’s Machine, a long-time top contender at this event, stated that some of the most anticipated divisions in this event are the Pro-Stock, Super Stock, and of course the insane diesel tractors. There’s no other diesel sled pulling event out there that compares to the variety of diesels on display or shear horsepower being brought to the table than at SDX. Even as favored and loved as the sled pulling event is, the ODSS drag racing event brings an equally exciting element to SDX as competitors switch gears to compete on an entirely different type of track. This is where the power meets the pavement and diesel racers go head on for the top trophy at the 1/8th mile marker. Some of the fan favorites and top competitors such as Rawlings Barnes, Landon Miller, Ben Shadday, Mindy Jackson, Ryan Riddle, Larson Miller, Johnny Gilbert, and Jared Jones all threw down some impressive numbers and gave the crowds some thrilling nail biting moments as they slammed the throttle and sped off for the finish line. Some of the most insane carnage can be expected as the races force driver and truck beyond their greater limits. Wherever there’s a good drag race there’s always an eye-catching show and shine event where everyone parks their fancy, hopped up diesels, pop the hood and show off the goods. Some of the coolest diesels gather round to display their flashy paint styles, massive tires, and shiny accessories with displays that would make anyone drool over. Walking around in a wonderland of impressive diesel trucks tends to spark a fire that ignites the diesel industry into craze for all of the newest and latest must have gadgets and toys and fuels the innovation of bigger and better ideas. People are super creative when it comes to creating their own unique winning styles. One of the things that makes Scheid’s such a strong standout event is the fact that it has been around for an astounding 23 years. No other event has been such an incredible staple for the entire diesel industry by giving aftermarket manufacturers a foundation for development and innovation that has helped bring the diesel market to where it is today. No other event draws in such huge crowds and for the crowds that show up every minute at SDX is packed full of momentum due to the ingenious idea of running two lanes for sled pulling in one area, drag racing on the track close by, a dyno for dialing in, and the show and shine in another area all running at the same time. SDX is a tremendous example of just how much passion there is for the ability to transform any ordinary diesel vehicle into something many only dream of. A huge thank you to all those who made SDX possible and to all of those who continue to fuel our passion in the diesel industry.

Top Fuel 6.6L Duramax Dragster - Wade Moody
Wade Moody on his 6.6L Diesel Dragster. PPEI Kory Willis. From the moment diesel lovers began taking delivery of their Duramax-powered Chevrolet and GMC HDs back around the turn of the century, they knew GM’s 6.6L V8 was very different from the outdated 6.5L it replaced. At the time 2001, the Duramax was a marvel of an engine, introducing both common-rail injection and aluminum cylinder heads to the diesel truck segment. Now, some 20 years after bringing this technology to market, the Duramax remains one of the best platforms to make horsepower with, and you can find them in some of the fastest vehicles in all of diesel drag racing. Wade Moody’s NGM Diesel-backed, Flo-Pro and Industrial Injection-sponsored rail has been setting tracks on fire since 2016, when things really started to click for Moody and his team. After first dipping into the 6s with a 6.99 at the 2016 NHRDA Midwest Truckin’ Nationals, Moody has been gradually shaving tenths off of his E.T.s, as well as adding trap speed. In June of ’17, Moody flew through the traps at 200.77 mph, and almost exactly one year later he eclipsed the 1320 in 6.53 seconds. Not only is Moody’s rail the quickest (and fastest) Duramax drag racer on the planet, but it’s not too far off the pace of the overall record of 6.31 and 226 mph held by Scheid Diesel. Said to produce 2,100hp, the Duramax in Moody’s rail is pretty serious. It’s based on an NGM Diesel-designed, billet-aluminum block that makes use of a dry sump oil system. The reason behind the aluminum block is two-fold: weight savings and durability. Since introducing the first billet-aluminum Duramax block back in 2012, the folks at NGM Diesel have all but perfected them. Wagler rods, Diamond pistons, Industrial Injection injectors and CP3s and parallel (i.e. true twins) BorgWarner turbochargers sum up the major components that make this fire-breathing Dmax tick. The whole package is stuffed in an ’05 Spitzer chassis and bolted to a Rossler Transmissions TH400 with a Pro Torque converter. Moody’s one-of-a-kind dragster tips the scales at 2,500 pounds.
