Just bring some snacks to the starting line, you don’t want to be making a sandwich while you’re waiting on the green light. Thanks for another good video!
a 6,000 pound truck with 426 hp a 12.8 - 104mph ? Those numbers don't add up to me. A Plymouth Road runner with a 426 hemi (advertised hp about 426 but probably higher) that weighs about 4000 pounds stock might run 13.8 104mph. How can a truck that weighs 2,000 pounds more run the 1/4 a full second faster? And 104 seems slow for a 12.8 time - I would expect 110-120?
You can not show a unmodified Ford F150 beat a Chevrolet Corvette - the original iconic American Icon on the quarter mile. What does the NCOA have to say to that? The National Corvette owners Association?
@@S8ER "That’s been a thing since 1999"??? What? That a unmodifed Ford F150 beats the mighty Chevrolet Corvette on the drag strip? I do not believe you!
@@wolfgangpreier9160 the 2nd gen SVT ford lightning debut was in 1999. Everything but the C5 was at risk of seeing taillights and even the C5 could see itself behind with a bad launch.
Okay tfl folks now look, look no disrespect. But Mr. Roman you being from what I've gathered understand watching your lovely Channel and videos for a handful of years now. Aren't you some kind of former racing competitor or expert? You would have let your again no disrespect just my observation nerdy son Tommy do the racing? Why wouldn't you done to yourself? Mind-blowing. Now that said this was an incredibly cool video to have been shown to watch that Tesla plaid overtake that other car so easily.... But finally it's this is another video that again I don't mean to be so judgmental you guys could have put down to a couple of
My 40 yr old firebird with a 50 yr old 4bolt main sbc will beat everyone one of these cars. Its by no means a stock engine and trans but still old tech compared to today. Im not even remotely impressed, as i see my car as slow at the drag strip. If i can build a faster car in my garage at home with less than half the money that says something.

Love watching these drag races!
I literally lol’ed at that Ford Flex pulling up to the drag race hahaha
awd twin turbo 365 hp yes sir
Pretty good Tommy, gotta work on that reaction time though...lol
He was brake boosting it 😆
Launch on the last yellow. That covers your reaction time for your brain to tell your foot to stomp it! Seriously. ;)
Ford must add this to the suggested break-in procedure for the Lightning 😎
*12's!?! Holy Santa Claus shit, I would have never expected that!*
after watching Cleetus for a few years, these all look slow as hell lol, especially the lauches
This video was a lot of fun to watch. Thanks guys.
I'd say put the Mighty Car Mods' CHOPPED! fingers on the back of the F150 Lightning.
Dude that things is outrageous 😂 it was pulling high 12s with some seriously late reaction times. Still fun though!!
Impressive. Do more of these please!
Roman knows drag times! 👍
Impressive! Will be interesting to see how ford does on top of this to get more performance.
Look like the track is going uphill!
The track designer might have been a flat-Earther. Making the track slightly uphill to counteract the surface curvature.
@@CoxaBranca that may slow down the 1000mph rotational speed!
Spielberg would've been jealous of that amazing camera work, Roman... 🤣
We were waiting for the Ford RR to beat the TRX, the lightning done that already who would've thought ;D
Edit: Ford RR = Ford Raptor R
How do you guys think the R1T would've done against that M3P?
R1T would have won.
Doesn’t only depend on the car also the driver.
😭👈 I'D TRADE IN THAT TUNDRA ASAP
Nice ! First On Race Day 😉
I already know how quick the EV Lightning is. I want it and a ZL1.
Haven't watched yet but I bet it about a 13/14 second 1/4 . Lol
Didn't I just see this video a day or two ago????
Touch my camera through the fence
Who ever is driving is late on the tree
I'm impressed!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow I'm amazed at the f150 get azz please show more
People forget Tesla is American”
I could believe that
Tommy needs to work on his launches. But nevertheless its a 12 second truck.
What track is this at? Nothing but respect for the EVs...but sub 10s would be one and done without a cage at any place I've ever been
New nhra rules allow for a 9.0@150mph without a cage or chute now. Modified thanks to the tesla plaid model s and x ripping 9s. 😎
I’m sure you guys will do so…please put a good tonneau cover on your lightning.

The lightning must be governed at 100... should do much better if you get the govern turned off. Then bring it back.
seems the 150 took off late...
Impressive…Still want an ICE engine as long as they are available…call me old fashioned.
My 10 years old child beat Tommy in the light ha!
I'm trying to watch the videos but THOSE FINGERPRINTS ALL OVER THE SCREEN 👀
Rich boys and their toys
15 please! Work on reaction time quit taking a nap maybe 11s lmao a expert your not
R/t is not going to affect the et’s, the tires didn’t break the beams
You put the best driver in there. Way to go Tommy!
Who have thought an electric truck would be fast. Electric cars are so lame
Terrible camera work
