Since the 1950s Chevy’s Corvette has been an iconic American sports car. When a big rig matches up head to head with a Corvette in a drag race, you’d expect the outcome to be laughable.

But this ain’t your ordinary big rig.

Meet the Peterbilt Coga, owned and operated by Nicholas Gagnon. Gagnon is a fixture on the big rig racing scene and performs regularly at truck shows. The Gagnon family owns a successful trucking company with over 60 drivers, but still find time for play.

With over 2000 horsepower and a Cat C-18 engine, this truck is packing massive power. Just a flick of the switch actives its multiple turbos and kicks this baby up a notch. I wouldn’t be surprised if it sets off the Richter scale when it takes off.

Check out the video and watch as Gagnon’s Peterbilt Coga easily dusts this Corvette on the track. Amazing.
