Nope, they are not. I was able to beat one with my 4.8 with a best 1/4 time of 15.51.

This one that I beat was from a 60mph roll. I don't know how they are at the low end.

Are you talking about the same one I remember you posting about a long time ago? The one you got to pick the stuff for it?
Or was that someone else?

It is quick for a vehicle that weighs 1,000 plus pounds more than your pick-up, but they are not race trucks. Ours does decent on the road. They are sluggish off the line and pull pretty good once they are around 2500rpm.
