Very cool! I was just reading through a car magazine tonight and the Raptor was the worst performer on the skidpad and for breaking from 70mph this year. It only pulled a .67 on the skidpad and it took 214ft to stop from 70mph

The skidpad is irrelvent for truck with this kind of suspension/purpose, but breaking is relevant for real world driving on the streets.

True but is 214ft really that bad for a full size truck running 35?
