Finding out whether or not a Nineties Toyota Pickup or a Lamborghini Huracán is quicker does not sound like laborious work. However most Toyota Pickups haven’t got 900 horsepower. The one on this new video from Hoonigan does.

It additionally has a two-speed racing transmission, drag radials, a bed-mounted gas cell, a 6.0-liter V-8, and 300 fewer kilos to lug round than its competitors. However because the 3800-pound weight determine betrays, the Huracán is not inventory, both. Its 5.2-liter V-10 has been fitted with twin turbos and customized ECUs, boosting most output to 1500 hp. And provided that it is mid-engine with all-wheel drive, the Huracán has some appreciable benefits over the Pickup.

Sadly, it is not totally sorted. Within the first run, the Huracán goes into “Gas Security” mode, chopping energy and giving the Pickup an opportunity to catch up and run previous it. On the second run, the Pickup driver has to carry to keep away from spinning out. In reality, all through the video he is combating the fixed side-to-side motions of the Pickup because it searches for grip. Ultimately, they each get good runs, however there’s by no means an ideal race between them.

Even nonetheless, it is enjoyable to look at because the Huracán rockets off down the runway after which abruptly cuts gas. The Toyota, sliding down the runway at insane speeds, is hilarious to take a look at on each run. And each are good examples of the last word fact of modifying a automotive: Huge energy is so much much less helpful if the automotive is not set as much as deal with it.
