Then that comparison is stupid. Comparing an engine that's 10 years old to a 1 year old platform.Pretty sure he's talking current/DCT based GT500s.

No, Roush and Shelby are outside 3rd party partners.I guess you could say it is aftermarket but I would consider it an official Ford product. Roush and Shelby are Ford in-house performance divisions so it’s not like a random 3rd party aftermarket company like SCA putting black widow kits on every truck model.
Gen 1 Raptor is pretty much useless even with a supercharger, and the TRX beat the tuned EB by half a car^^Cliffs???
I'm going to guess the tuned Raptors either beat the stock TRX or come really, really close.
^ id imagine stock TRX vs tuned Raptor will be door to door on the same size tire.
Not sure why im discussing drag racing of half ton offroad trucks but, why not lol.
Yea, I know.if you look at my previous post you would see I agree with you. It’s something I care about the least but this single minded group likes this talking point and I currently have time to waste lol
Honestly if the Gen 3 had 550hp ( NA V8 or Ecoboost) and had 16in of suspension travel and a 37in tire option I would be sold .

Same up here, drag racing is definitely more accessible for most people. I get it, Im just usually not interested anymoreWe race everything in America. Quarter mile performance is one of the biggest selling points down here.

So...that tuned Raptor was also running race fuel.A tuned Raptor on 37’s is half a truck behind the TRX so on stock tires I would bet it would be half a truck ahead of a TRX so the narrative that the Gen 3 needs to be a blown V8 to overtake the TRX is false
Just goes to show how powerful those supercharged 6.2 engines are! To move a truck of that weight pretty quickly.So...that tuned Raptor was also running race fuel.
So run both on the same fuel and it just gets worse, in favor of the TRX again.
Narratives be damned, facts prevail.
How much power difference would there be between 94 and e30 on a tune only application?So...that tuned Raptor was also running race fuel.
So run both on the same fuel and it just gets worse, in favor of the TRX again.
