We ran into Matt Maier at the 2013 Scheid Diesel Extravaganza, where he was drag racing his daily-driven ’97 Ford F-250. As he lined up, we dutifully got our camera ready for what we figured to be a 9- or 10-second eighth-mile pass out of the 7.3L Power Stroke.We ran into Matt Maier at the 2013 Scheid Diesel Extravaganza, where he was drag racing his daily-driven ’97 Ford F-250. As he lined up, we dutifully got our camera ready for what we figured to be a 9- or 10-second eighth-mile pass out of the 7.3L Power Stroke. At that moment, the truck rocked back and shot off the line, creaming the Dodge in the next lane with a 7.43-second run, at 92 mph. For those who don’t speak eighth-mile, that’s roughly 11.40s at 115 mph in the quarter-mile! We went over and talked to Matt straight away and found that he also sled pulls and tows a 40-foot gooseneck with his Ford, in addition to the drag racing and daily driving.
