Kinda like the GT500 owner claiming to have run the 1/4 in 11.25s, bone stock. I later discovered that he was running in DA of about -900 (or so?) and may have been running 109 octane fuel. Still a...

It's nice not to have to compromise on power to get the brand you want - each has beastly machines. I generally like Ford, but I'm pretty sure I'd take a ZL1 over a GT500.

Also, I don't believe the Scat Pack has the 6-pot 15.4" Brembos as an option... I think that's SRT only as well, but I'd have to look it up again to be certain.

Someone started a rumor (perhaps a dealer looking to cash in on market adjustments) that there would only be 1200. The CEO has attempted to debunk this on numerous occasions though, saying that they...

What about that magnetic suspension though? I've been a fan of that for a long time (at least in concept)

I had the choice of a used 2009 Challenger SRT or a new, fully loaded MINI Cooper S. I had a long commute at the time and was offered better financing with the MINI. Financially, it was a wash (fuel...

Some people react that way. I think it's good for everyone though - competition breeds better product...the Camaro is a gorgeous car. I might prefer the Challenger's looks, but Camaro fans should...

He's a slow-motion trainwreck. It's starting to get really entertaining to see how far he's willing to dig himself in.

Actually, the certification requires the car to have all modifications from stock listed. There were two certifications - one without modification and one with a single modification: 305 drag...

The Hellcat (and the 2015 interior) got me thinking about muscle cars again. Varied opinions like those here are useful.

You can't blame anyone here for misinformation, so many articles are getting details wrong, like thinking the black key is the valet mode, that only 1200 will be produced, etc.

I have to say though, of all the car forums I've visited on this subject (and with some notable exceptions), this forum has had the most reasonable, realistic discussion about the Hellcat. True car...

Then you're not understanding the comment. Without the blower, the 6.2 would probably only make 440ish HP - but to produce 707 net crank hp with an 80hp parasitic loss, the engine must produce 787hp...

they ran 305 drag radials for their NHRA time. I think I read some blurb about them wanting to run 275s square for handling? If that makes sense. More than likely, they just wanted owners to have two...

I'm sorry you don't understand and like to resort to petty insults for no apparent reason. Good luck with that.

I'm not sure where this venom is coming from, this is what the dodge engineer said. If it pleases you, you could imagine some outside source driving the SCer to get that number. Ultimately, it means...

Just to clarify, that 800 number is the estimated power of the engine before the ~80hp parasitic losses from the supercharger, and possibly other accessories.
