Proof V8 is better than Electric: DRAG RACE

Support Lucas's Go Fund Me: gofund.me/fe4d2012
Thanks to Clive Sutton for lending us the Shelby Super Snake: bit.ly/Clive-Sutton-0410
It’s time for an almighty all-American drag race! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
We’ve got Mat lining up in the all-new, all-electric Ford F-150 Lightning, and he’s about to go head-to-head against a Shelby Super Snake & a Ford Mustang!
There’s a whole load of power lining up here, so let’s compare the stats. Starting with the F-150 Lightning, it comes equipped with two electric motors which are good for 580hp and 1,050Nm of torque. It’s also equipped with a 130kWh battery pack. However, given the sheer size of this machine, coupled with the battery, it’s pretty heavy - it tips the scales at 2,989kg!!
Alongside it, we have the Mustang. It’s a whole lot lighter than the F,150, weighing in at 1,743kg. Under the bonnet, you’ll find a 5-litre naturally-aspirated V8 that can deliver 450hp and 528Nm of torque. It only powers the rear wheels, though!
And then finally we have the Shelby. Under its huge bonnet, you’ll find a 5-litre supercharged V8 that can put down 775hp and 880Nm! And just like the F-150, it comes equipped with AWD. We’d tell you the weight, but Shelby hasn’t released the figures!
So what do we think - will the Shelby walk it? Will the F-150’s massive weight prove decisive? There’s only one way to find out - LET’S RACE!

For the Mustang, you can take about 5s off the quarter mile by positioning a 'Cars & Coffee' crowd on a bit of sidewalk at the finish line end of the track. Any Mustang will break the speed of sound to reach them before they can scatter. To make the Mustang stop, you remove some curtains to reveal a lone tree (the only one for miles); the Mustang will instantly change direction and crash into the tree backwards at 100 mph.
