1) On the last run, why did the CTD drain the radiator?

2) How could it still run and not overheat?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I know that diesels aren't good in cold weather and run on pressure...

So does allowing the temperature to increase force an increase in pressure which would be more HP and torque?

BTW, I probably won't try this with my 5.9L gas motor!

1. if you are leaking antifreeze onto the track you wont be able to race (cause it is slick)

2. if you watch at the end the motor was cooked and hurting..
to keep racing you want to drop the antifreeze and run just water....

the cummins is direct injected and this kind of an engine does not create near as much heat as a normal one. there is no precombustion chamber
