Dave Stewart
Dave Races a 1985 Peterbilt 359 with a Cat C15ish and a 5-speed automatic.
His best time is 12.90 seconds at over one hundred mile per hour in the 1/4 mile.
Dave runs dual wheel drag slicks on the rear and tunes the fuel system. He runs a huge turbo along with running N2O.
Dave built the truck, having to engineer and construct it from the ground up as there are no performance parts for this type of build. He’s done a lot of testing, tuning, and experimenting to get the truck to this point.
His goal is to break the world record at 11.40 and be the fastest semi truck in Canada.
Dave has been racing since 2016 with Vegreville Speedway and also races in Saskatoon, Medicine Hat, and Edmonton.
His sponsor is Das Nitrogen Services Ltd.
