Hey Mark, I drive an F250 turbo diesel, and I'm betting that it was the turbo-lag (time for the turbo to spool up and really kick the power in) that gave the diesel the slow start off the line.. Those turbo's have some awesome power (specially souped up) but the turbo lag really gives them a "slower" start off the line- compared to a gas engine.
