Tesla Cybertruck Cyberbeast vs Corvette Z06 // DRAG & ROLL RACE

The 2024 Tesla Cybertruck Cyberbeast ($96,390 starting in the US) and the Corvette Z06 ($110,100 starting in the US, $146,299 starting in Canada) have lined up for a drag race. With 670 horsepower and 460 lb ft of torque to the rear wheels, the Z06 hopes to use its weight and size advantage against the all-wheel drive, 845 horsepower Cybertruck. Thomas and James are excited to see how these two match up, but things don’t always go as you might expect during a drag race! We hope you enjoy the episode. And then subscribe, silly.

[@Pistolita221]

Agreed, very proud of the Corvette team. Excited to see the Zora take on the Revuelto in a couple years, they're going to have similar specs. Revuelto has 1kHP, 595lbf torque and weighs 3,900lb, the Corvette Zora should ~ the same weight, within 100hp, and have at least 120lbf more torque. Pretty bananas, assuming they just take the ZR1 and put an electric system on the front axle, similar to the Eray. And it'll probably be about half the price of the Revuelto, too. I doubt they'll charge more than 350k.

[@mewrongway]

@@afterkaze I see your another brain washed puppet! To begin with, about half the lifetime carbon-dioxide emissions from an electric car come from the energy used to produce the car, especially in the mining and processing of raw materials needed for the battery and motor. EV's require 3 times the copper wire! This compares unfavorably with the manufacture of a gasoline-powered car which accounts for 17% of the car’s lifetime carbon-dioxide emissions. When a new EV appears in the show-room, it has already caused 30,000 pounds of carbon-dioxide emission. The equivalent amount for manufacturing a conventional car is 14,000 pounds. How will we charge all them EV's? The wind does not always blow nor does the sun always shine so we build more nuke power plants to charge our cars so we increase our risk of another Chernobyl. Hope its your nabor hood and not mine! Also the power grids are so old that several states have rolling blackouts every summer! It will take 50 years and billions of dollars to get the grid up to the task! UN is out to bend you over just like Elon!

[@RobertPitas]

I noticed that nobody mentions the Cybertruck hitting the speed limiter that keeps it from going over the max speed of the tires in any of the videos of it drag racing. In some truck drag race videos where the vehicle has a speed limiter, the driver usually mentions “hitting a wall” or something, but I haven’t heard anyone say that in a Cyberbeast drag video. Given the 11.2s quarter, the CB must be going somewhere north of 120mph, so they are probably “H” rated which is a max speed of 130mph. If that’s the case, then in the roll race, I wonder if the Cyberbeast actually hits the speed limiter before the end of the run?
