Is suzuki escudo pikes peak faster than a formula 1 ferrari?

If you mean Top Speed, then yes, the RACINGSUZUKI Escudo Pikes peak would be geared for accelaration because a high top speed is useless on a twisty course, In competition spec, I know it would go much faster than 180 mph in 3 seconds, A Formula 1 car geared for a fast circuit, is capable of over 200mph. If it was a drag race then I expect the Escudo could be faster, both cars have a similar power to weight ratio, A formula 1 car has around 700bhp, but weighs about 600kg, the Escudo has nearly 1000bhp but weighs 800kg, The Escudo is geared for accelaration and has 4 wheel drive, over a short distance, a quarter-mile, it would easily beat the Formula 1 car, Over a longer distance the Escudo would reach it's higher top speed and the Formula 1 car would not catch and will not overtake it. If an Escudo had longer gearing, track suspension settings and less downforce, then a car that has over a 1000hp/ton should be capable of well over 200mph, and would potentially be faster than a long geared Formula 1 car.
