If you haven't picked up a copy of Diesel World Magazine September issue, go get you one 🔥🔥🔥

This BMW is rewriting the diesel rulebook.

What started as a daily driver evolved into a serious diesel performance machine, pushing the limits of what people expect from a BMW diesel. The story behind its evolution is just as wild as the numbers it’s putting down.

Would you daily-drive a diesel BMW like this?

Come on out Nov 7th for some diesel racing action at Northeast Dragway 🏁🏁🏁

🔥 THE FAST PASS JUST GOT A LOT MORE VALUABLE! 🔥

A huge THANK YOU to Matt Santjer of Santjer Performance Development, LLC for the years of continued support of Diesel Truck Wars — and for jumping back in with a $500 additional kicker toward the FASTEST (quickest) PASS OF THE NIGHT! 💰🏁

That brings our Fast Pass Kicker to $1,500 CASH!

And if you know Matt, you already know he isn’t afraid to leave it ALL on the line for his shot at the big bucks. 😈

Likelihood is, Matt will be bringing home some cash one way or another — whether he’s collecting the $1,500 Fast Pass Kicker or taking home the $250 Carnage Kicker (or both)! 💥😂

But that’s not all…

Diesel street car pulling wheelies with a nice little 🔥 out the wastegate dump 😎. Had to abort this pass last night before the 60ft, hit some fluid on track and started heading for the wall.. Also had two more nasty nitrous backfires, so gotta dig into it further. Likely have a solenoid acting up

Check out the 9 page spread in Diesel World Magazine September issue🔥! Dustin Korth put together a killer article after doing a little photo shoot at the last Rudy's Diesel event at Rockingham! 50+ passes in the 5.70-5.90 range at 1200whp on this motor and still running strong 🏁

New PB 3.77sec 60-130mph 🔥. Full weight street car 🏁🏁🏁

UCC / ODSS was a big success last week! Made another 20 passes in the 5.70-5.90 range with our 1200whp full weight diesel street car 🔥! And the 2014 X5 35D never skipped a beat on the 12hr haul through the WV mountains, running 80mph+ up 7-8% grades and still averaged 18mpg 🏁.

The overall BMW turnout was bigger than ever this year and 1320video got some killer shots! Really exciting to see the Diesel BMW community growing, especially on the racing side of things!

Huge thanks to Lyn Miller for organizing the BMW meetup and S&S Diesel Motorsport® for catering dinner for everyone! The S&S team has always been a huge part of the BMW progress over the years.

Also a big shout out to our buddies at killdevildiesel for their support with block development & machine work! Here soon, we're gonna really see what these M57 blocks can hold 😉

This past week was some awesome racing at Rockingham Dragway for the ODSS season opener! Got our NHRA pro license completed and for the first time were able to race in 5.90 index. After going rounds with some tough competition, ended up making it to the finals, but couldn’t quite take the win from the 5.90 champ of many years Brett Marcum. Second place was still a huge win for us in a full weight street car with AC!

Made 15 passes total and even managed to get a full ¼ mile pass on record🔥 8.97 @ 160.15 MPH while dialed back for 5.90 index qualifying! Plan to make an all-out ¼ mile pass in the near future at full power w/ a hard launch, to get a clean 8.50-8.60 on record!

Can’t wait to see the Diesel World Magazine feature that Dustin Korth puts together! Was great meeting up with ya for the photo shoot, thanks for getting it all set up. I get the feeling there might be a diesel BMW in your future here soon..

Huge thanks to Kill Devil Diesel for their support with block development / machine work, and Jared Alderson for always taking the time to brainstorm ideas with us.

And as always, couldn’t do it without the team at S&S Diesel Motorsport providing the best fuel system components and support in the industry!
