1200HP F-150 Gave an 1100HP GT-R a Head Start... AND STILL WON

A 1,200HP Ford F-150 gives an 1,100HP Nissan GT-R R35 a massive head start—and still hunts it down before the finish line. 💀🔥

On paper, this race already sounds completely backwards.

🇯🇵 NISSAN GT-R R35 — 1,100HP

🇺🇸 FORD F-150 — 1,200HP

The lightweight, all-wheel-drive GT-R gets to launch first while the heavily modified F-150 remains behind the starting line.

For several seconds, the Nissan appears to have the race completely under control.

Then the truck launches.

The GT-R is already far down the track, but the 1,200HP F-150 immediately begins closing the gap.

The speed keeps climbing:

🔥 GT-R — 55 MPH | F-150 — 62 MPH

🔥 GT-R — 91 MPH | F-150 — 104 MPH

🔥 GT-R — 127 MPH | F-150 — 145 MPH

🔥 GT-R — 145 MPH | F-150 — 166 MPH

The Nissan received the head start, but the Ford is accelerating much harder through the second half of the race.

Just before the finish line, the F-150 catches the GT-R and powers past it.

Then the final results appear:

🏆 FORD F-150 — 1,200HP

💨 TOP SPEED — 173 MPH

🇯🇵 NISSAN GT-R R35 — 1,100HP

💨 TOP SPEED — 152 MPH

That’s approximately:

🔥 F-150 — 278 KM/H

🔥 GT-R — 245 KM/H

The F-150 finishes with a 21 MPH advantage despite starting several seconds behind the Nissan.

This is exactly why horsepower figures alone never tell the entire story.

The GT-R’s all-wheel-drive system gives it enormous launch potential, while the F-150’s higher power and brutal top-end acceleration allow it to rapidly close the distance.

Once the truck reaches full boost, the gap disappears almost instantly.

A purpose-built Japanese supercar.

A heavily modified American pickup truck.

A massive head start.

And the truck still takes the win. 🇺🇸🔥
