Default wife wants race her nx vs my f150

my days of driving fast on the road are long behind me but for some reason my wife seems to think she would win a race

mine 2014 xlt scab 5.0 4*4 all stock no mods
her's
2015 Lexus Nx200 2015 Lexus Nx200
(4 cylinder turbo) all wheel drive

mine 360 hp @ 5,500 rpm

her's 235hp @ 4,800RPM

any thoughts who would win

granted i think my truck weighs 1000 pounds more than hers BUT i am pretty sure i would win

2011 Ford F-150 XLT Super Crew 4x4 (5.0L V8) 0-60 mph 6.6 Quarter Mile 14.9

2015 Lexus NX 200t F-Sport 0-60 mph 6.9 0-60 Quarter mile 15.3

If yours is a standard cab, yup you will be quicker than her. Should be an even race tho.

They say the 5.0 and the eco boost are very close. Our car is not anywhere near as quick as the 2012 eco boost I had. I'd say you would win easily.

As long as the road is straight your F150 would probably win. Throw in curves/turns probably a different result.

no question!! she is talking 0 to 60 we're not going to actually race as neither of us want to put anyone at risk for a street race and I know her next car will be faster as she is now looking at the RC as a replacement

She seems to either have been "infected" by your racing dna or she has something to proof

If she brake torques her launch, boost built, she'll have a good chance keeping up with you, otherwise, you'll leave her in the dust.
