[@heyitstim3618]

i did this drive 3 weeks ago, took like 35 minutes. Insane to watch people do this in 10 minutes

[@conrado800]

The record is around 7!

[@freeheeler09]

Nice truck!

[@Neberheim]

Rivian climbing that hill like their share price in the last 12 hours 📈

[@Neberheim]

Just realized this is last years run. Hard to believe the time they shaved off this year just with with the gen2 architecture

[@13ccasto]

I wonder what kind of efficiency he got

[@asicdathens]

The EV record is still held by the VW

[@vilicus77]

Rivian broke the stock record--pretty cool.

[@ОлегЯрославович-ы8ж]

tell me how can I buy a rear shock absorber, if Rivian is located not in USA ?

[@CSNCSNCSN]

Same way you bought the truck?

[@KCJbomberFTW]

New truck record 😂 no way never would have guessed that😂

[@TheDudeV1]

Like a stock truck record?

[@CSNCSNCSN]

You really don't know anything about this sport or this race, do you?

[@jameseastwood4984]

Now eclipsed by Ford's F150 Lightning supertruck. Rivians EV performance is following their share price. 😂

[@Neberheim]

No it wasn’t. Ford was non-production, built by a contractor with a shell that resembles an F-150. Kind of like how the NASCAR Chevy car might say “Malibu” but the bow tie is the only thing they have in common.

[@Neberheim]

Also their share price is up 50% since you posted that 😂

[@sdry]

wow that was pathetic.

[@Teamvenomracing]

In what way? Enlighten everyone.

[@itscurt]

Keep racing on forza kid

[@gordonbryan8381]

How fast was your run loser?!?!?!

[@TRUEMADRID]

I’m curious if the R1S would have done better, since it is proven to be better on handling for all those turns

[@Neberheim]

@@TRUEMADRIDthe R1T is generally described as better handling, especially pre-Gen2
