I am not sure it is the first time a 6.0L won back to back, but I do believe it is the first time with the same truck and driver. Although it is not the first time the same driver won it back to back. Lavon Miller did that in 2014-15 in his 04 Ram 3500 that he slapped a 6.7L CTD in.

I believe the guy in the video reported this was the second time for a back to back winner.

I watched a GM come off the line at Abbotsford BC Raceway broke front axle and it was ugly! Truck wobbled and looked like it was going to hit the barrier.

Probably why only one GM in the competition. Weak link for sure, even seen a couple along the freeway with tire pointing to the side giving them a Marty Feldman look.

Is there a ban on " smoking coal" that happens in diesel drag racing?

Rolling coal.......

And, no, there isn't.

I have noticed that the diesels pump out some black smoke under acceleration

Not "YET" !!!

Nope, not in drag racing. Some drag strips may require the exhaust to be above a certain height which is why many drag trucks will have the exhaust coming out the hood or a stack coming out of the bed.
