All cars were stock in that vid. Just goes to show how pointless roll racing vids are, clearly who ever got the jump pulled the other car. Seemed the time they were even the z06 had the edge, with that said that's damn impressive for a 4600 pound tank to hang with a car that's 1k pounds less.

I agree with you 100%. The only thing i get out of those roll racing vids is to see if the cars can hang with eachother or if one just flat out falls on its face when you get on it.

I'm also amazed that the hellcat gives a z06 a run for its money. That right there tells you how beastly that blown hemi is.

I'd love to test drive one.

Wow I loved hearing the z06. Not bad on the challenger but if something jumps out in front of them at high speed I would rather be in the corvette.

barely? Either they are or they aren't. In the world of Drag Radials the NT555rs are about as mild a tire you can get. A real set of DRs such as M/Ts or NT05 would put this car in the 1.50s for 60' time.

barely means yes, they are street legal. Agree - if he chose to put a real set on, times would be better.
My statement was to show that there were no tire changes done at the track for that run on the video.

This Z06 put up the best fight against all the Hellcat vs videos I have seen on StanceAutoworks YouTube Channel. I would post a link but I thought posting street racing videos was grounds for disciplinary action? I'm sure not complaining if they changed the rules.

Power to weight isn't always the deciding factor even in roll races. As speeds increase weight isn't as big of a factor as it is at 0-80mph. This is a how a Charger Hellcat loaded up with two guys and gear can pull on a Hyabusa during a freeway roll race starting at 80mph.

There are videos all over this thread of people racing this thing all over this thread. Put it up if you still want to.

And you make a good point as far as the weight when it comes to a rolling start

Dodge Omni vs Hellcat didn't think that you could do 12's in a Omni

Curb weight: 2420

Should be able to do 11's with the right tires and driver.
