In Europe they race those big trucks, with c12 cats that make 1000 HP.
I wonder what the rebuild interval is?
When comparing the price of diesel vs. gas you must analyze the total cost over the life of the engine. Diesels are more money initially but have a longer service life.
Here's a good article on hot rodding diesels.

Re: Why no supercharged diesels
This is a thread that may have been ahead of it's time.
However,with technology that is being touted as coming in 2007,the diesel may well take on a whole new profile.
