930 vs. a damn truck

[mark houghton]

Check it out...that truck really hooks 'em up! The 930 beat it by just a small margin. Time to sell my P car and get a monster truck I guess!

Just goes to show that Cabriolets are slower than slow!

Now, if that truck were to race Paul's right hand!

What exhaust do yall think that 930 had? Sounded really good.

What a strange video. Was sort of scared for the kid that did the start - so many videos on the internets of drivers losing control.

But... awesome! Is that how loud a zork is? Even my wonderful neighbors might have trouble with that but maaaaan that's a nice sound.

Guy needs to learn how to launch a 930, I'll race that truck anytime with my truck

Not real smart publicly posting a drag race in your company truck...

4X4, right gearing plus turbo diesel torque. not to be messed with. My friends base model turbo diesel Golf beat his old GTI.

Sheet Mark, when I saw the title I thought der Phoenix met a truck at an intersection in a bad way! Races are so pointless because there are so many variables they prove nothing.

i wonder how the truck did on that right hand turn when the vid cut off.

that 930 did sound awesome. THAT was a great exhaust tone.

twin turbo? 2 zorks?


just my opinion. the 930 is too classy of a car to drag race.

I thought the same!

But, he sounded like he drove it ok, and barely beat a 7-8000lb truck.

Mods are due!!!!!

A little strange yes... the entire time I was watching I was thinking the ground was wet and the Cabrio would lose traction and swing one way or the other...thankfully that didn't happen.

I did like the sound as well. Very clean looking 930.

shop truck racing!....so much fun!








.....sounds like the guy took it easy on the 930 out of the hole....also sounds like he forgot third was by the radio.... took him two tries to stick it

Face the facts gents, the old grey mare just aint what she used to be.

WA state plates, hopefully I run into this guy, would love to know that exhaust setup. Sounded great.

930th!!!

GEESH!

now

what kind of fukktaralot puts his truck in the other lane with the license plate visible, lined up to drag race into oncoming traffic over a blind curve... onto YOUBOOB!?!?!?

930 sounded great, wheels FTMFL IMO...

[ELZ's930]

Are we sure that was a turbo? Ran more like a 3.2NA.

That F-150 has a V6 no? Roughly 350hp? Not 8000lbs either more like 4500lbs

Weird race, but a turbo would have left that thing in the dust.

Didn't see any badging either.

From Motor Trend

At the drag strip, the 2015 F-150 hit 60 mph in 6.4 seconds and cleared the quarter-mile in 15.0 seconds at 92.5 mph. In comparison, the 2012 model reached 60 mph in 6.6 seconds and the quarter-mile in 15.2 seconds at 92.1 mph. The 2015 F-150 SuperCrew with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost slightly edged out the 597-pound lighter 2015 F-150 SuperCab with the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V-6 (325 hp, 375 lb-ft) to 60 mph. The 2.7-liter EcoBoost propelled the SuperCab to 60 mph in 6.5 seconds and through the quarter-mile in 15.1 seconds at 92.8 mph.

^^^ I was thinking the same thing. I never heard a dump pipe. Maybe the zork drowns it out (no idea), but on my car, it is very clear when the waste gate opens...
