Peterbilt 379 Maximum Acceleration – So Much Torque It Lifts The Front Wheel Off The Ground

Horsepower is a fun drug to play around with, but when torque gets thrown into the equation things really begin to get interesting as you can see how powerful vehicles really are right off of the line.

In this bout, we check out a Peterbilt 379 as it goes up against a host of opponents that you might not expect it to be competitive with, but this thing is a monster in all facets of the imagination.

It starts off in a pulling race with another big rig, pulling a trailer full of weight and muscling its way to the finish line first in a fury of speed.

Afterwards, the big and heavy machine goes up against a Chevrolet Corvette and a Ford Mustang and manages to somehow stomp them both out in a  traditional drag race.

Check out the video below that shows this big mean machine in action. If one thing is for sure, it’s that this big rig is quite a sleeper.
