Although pickup trucks are usually not designed for racing and are typically used for work purposes or off-road adventures, there are exceptions to this rule. Some manufacturers create powerful and fast trucks, and there are even special racing series for these vehicles. In this drag race, we will see how a road-legal performance truck compares to a lightweight race truck.

The video at the top of this page, brought to us by Carwow on YouTube, showcases a drag race between two impressive machines. On the left, we have the Shelby F-150 Super Snake, which is a highly modified version of America’s best-selling vehicle, the F-150. Under the hood, this truck boasts a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 engine that produces a staggering 770 horsepower and approximately 640 pound-feet of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via a 10-speed automatic gearbox. However, it must be noted that this truck is quite heavy, weighing in at 4,846 pounds.
