Do we know the specs on the Pike's Peak Lightning Supertruck? Weight/0-60/etc?

Congrats to Ford on the overall win despite the malfunction and shutdown! Romain Dumas did a very fast ascent and would have likely beaten last years time if not for the glitch. In any case, the only 'number' I've seen is the edit:1600 horsepower, which is, of course, *insane*. Since our much heavier trucks with 580hp do 0-60 in ER trim in around 3.8 seconds, more than twice the horsepower in a presumably much lighter carbon supertruck has to be around 2 seconds, no? Just wondering if anyone has seen a link where Ford cites specific specs.

I think it is 1600 hp. More on the existing thread:

Yes, you're correct. Recently watched Ken Block's Climbkhana at Pike's and had the Hoonicorn's power rating stuck in my head. 1600hp and 3500 pounds (from the other thread) would be potent indeed!
Thanks
