Notice the position of the shock towers. STLA was engineered around the inline Hurricane. Remember, they were on a path to end Hemi and focus on the inline series of engines that features the Hurricane so there was no reason to package protect for Hemi.
It would take a rather significant engineering effort to get Hemi packaged into STLA. Sure they did it for the one-off drag car, but that car doesn't have to meet any federal crash standards or achieve any meaningful handling specifications.

Yeah I know I just messing around.
Kananaskis is an area of Alberta close to Calgary with a nature based tourism appeal.
