Last weekend (June 23), the 102nd Pikes Peak International Hill Climb race was held, in which the Ford F-150 Lightning SuperTruck was the fastest. The 12.42 mile (almost 20 km) long track, with 156 turns, Romain Dumas completed in 8 minutes and 53.553 seconds.

61 cars participated in the race and the Ford F-150 Lightning SuperTruck finished with more than 10 seconds lead over the Wolf GB08 (9:04.454) driven by Christian Merli. It should be noted that this result was slower than last year’s SuperVan 4.2, which crossed the track in 8:47.682.
It is interesting that the car had certain technical problems during the race, so at one point it had to stop, reset and start again. In the end, it cost him a lost 26 seconds.
The Ford F-150 Lightning SuperTruck is powered by three STARD UHP 6-Phase Motors and Ultra-High Performance Li-Polymer NMC cells, with over 1,600 hp (1,193 kW). It is equipped with a triple-element front wing, headlight ducts, hood ducts and louvers, front dive-planes, side diffusers, rear diffuser, carbon ceramic brakes, multi-element rear wing to maximize aerodynamics, and magnesium forged wheels wrapped in Pirelli P – Zero tires.
