Place your bets - Powerboost vs Raptor in a drag race

I watched this this morning. I don't think they turned traction control off, unless sport mode does that by default. That is probably part of the reason they are off the advertised marks by almost a second.

Are they not 1 mile above sea level? That would explain the difference in 0 to 60 times compared to the posted estimates by Motor trend.

Without watching first, I’m going to say PowerBoost.

I’ve seen test/races (from this YouTube channel, I think) that shows the Raptor actually being slower than a normal 3.5 EcoBoost F-150. They found the larger tires and weights added a couple extra tenths in 0-60 and through the quarter.
