Secondo Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 They're both beasts! I wonder what they actually run in the 1/4 mile, even though that's not what these trucks are about. But you can be sure every Dodge Ram and Chevy pickup will want to run one on the street. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
39Mustang Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 The ONLY reason I will defend the Raptor and its blow dryer 6-banger is the Raptor's suspension is really an off-road setup and the Foxes are tuned for that when the F150 is more street tuned. I thought the 10spd Automatic would have helped I guess not. Hey Ford, your Eco-boost got chewed up so they better hope Dodge don't release that Raptor killer they showed awhile back Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twobjshelbys Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Wow! It's not a shock which one won Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Secondo Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 The Raptor was up against a supercharged Coyote (very formidable combo, even in a truck, I have seen them run mid-11's in an F150) and did pretty well, my guess about 7-tenths behind the 750HP F150 so yeah, the Raptor did pretty awesome with its V6 10-speed off-road setup, complete with 2 large full size spare-tire/wheels in the back! The new Raptor would have easily destroyed its V8 predecessors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
66GT350PS Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Now try them in the Baja truck's domain in a ten mile off road challenge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carnut12 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Pretty stupid race honestly, anyone that couldnt predict that outcome doesnt know cars, or in this case trucks. This is like racing a 2014 GT500 against a regular GT. Both cool trucks, but way over priced in my opinion. If money was disposable I guess in that case it wouldnt matter.

ViperNC Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 I think the better drag race would have been on dirt for these trucks. Probably a closer outcome in that arena. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
