Had to fast forward this one.

They take an 11.2 quarter mile drag race and drag it out to over 11 minutes!

PS: The Raptor clocked in at 12.4 (corrected and saved you a click!)

And faster even if the CT is driving in the dirt.

First brake test the CT wins so far.

I'm still waiting for the full Carwow CT video.
I want to see Matt's mate Sam in the CT to do some hot laps around a track.

Did anyone really not know how this was going to end? Might be a good race with a model Y, but it's no race with a CyberTruck.

Not just any Raptor. The R. 115k start. With usual 50-75k mark up. Suck it Mike Levine (Ford exec who shits on Tesla every day)
Unless you’re all in BEV and anti-ICE, I think it’s still very fair for some people to prefer the RR over the CT

I mean, my middling Lightning is only 0.3 sec slower than the R

CT and RR are very different trucks, with very different strengths/weaknesses (again, fuel type aside)

The good news here: Cyberbeast pricing should kill those dealer mark-ups

I am not sure those dealers charging a stupid mark up will be dissuaded by this.

I think Carwow had a bunch of cars there to test it just after delivery day. They even had two CTs in the lot to play with by the looks. They are just releasing the videos every couple of days.

I actually enjoyed watching the CT run accross the dirt at speed, lots of roads like that here, suspension looks right.

I also compared the braking distance with the Lambo video. Ct wasn't any better on the other lane either. But the Raptor was worse than the CT and both heaps worse than the Lambo.

This was an unnecessary one. Not even in the same speed weightclass.
