That's because US motorsports suck, although Global Rallycross Championship is gaining ground! There's just something about a 550hp, 2400lb AWD streed car that I just can't get enough of!

There is no such thing as detonation in diesels. Fuel is not injected until the piston reaches the ideal position, unlike gasoline engines, so there is no possibility of pre-ignition. Thats why diesels can run obscene amounts of boost with the only worry being: can the hardware handle the pressures. With a gasoline engine, too much boost causes detonation.

Look at top fuel dragsters running nitromethane maxing out at 60-65 psi of boost, whereas a pro-mod diesel pulling truck can run north of 150 psi of boost.

so you think a diesel engine cant pre ignite have you ever seen one somebody started on ether

That's not normal operation. Ether is like crack to a diesel, they become addicted and won't start without it.
