Raced a Hellcat

[U LOSE]

I was coming home from a car meet in Houston. When all the sudden i heard a challenger revving at me and wanted to race. So I put it in second we both had our RPM up and both seam to hit it at the same time. As soon as i punched it was like man what is done to that challenger he is actually keeping up with me, I saw him in my rear view mirror I guess I had about 2 cars on him I couldn't really tell, i was paying to much attention to driving.

I gave him a thumbs up and he followed me for a little while then he got beside me and wanted to run again, this is when I noticed the hellcat badge on the side and it all made sense to me. We went from second gear again, I prolly should have been in first as my RPM's were only around 3700. This time we honked it off, he got a little bit out on me, my front bumper was at his door, but as soon as I got around 4500 RPM I walked right past him and then hit third and again prolly put about same lengths as i had on him the first time.

I talked to him at the next light told him he had a nice car and was fast. He looked a little bummed, he also had his girl with him.

My mods are in my sig. GT500 FTW

U stock

His mods are in the sig, just waiting for the first whiner to say the Challenger was stock. Good kill and about what I would expect, haven't seen one around me yet.

Nice kill OP, could you tell if it was a manual or auto? I know the autos are faster than manuals

+1 was going to say same thing, if he was auto probably different outcome, maybe..but nice kill

It was probably a NA challenger with hellcat badges.

Good kill!

Wonder if this'll show up on CT?

Nice kill. The Hellcats (esp auto) are very fast stock. My neighbor has one that I plan on checking out soon.

127mm JLT CAI, FRPP Monoblade, 2.396 Upper are the only real power mods that i have.

I could not tell if it was an auto or not. I literally was not beside him long enough to tell how fast he was shifting.

I do know that it is silver and he lives in the woodlands.

I also raced a ZR1 this weekend But it was so bad i'm assuming the driver didn't know what he was doing. So I guess i'm not going to post it.

Good kill. I am looking forward to the first one that tries to test me.

Awesome kill.

Do you know what your car puts down? I am curious about what kind of power I need to put down to the ground to walk a Hellcat as well. I should be around 575whp by the end of summer.

Wont. Be. Enough. Lol

Wont. Be. Enough. Lol

I think you underestimate the power the HC has to make up for that 800lb difference. Are there stock HCs going faster than low 10s?

 

[efroeh]

Good kill op

I ran a hellcat at the track last Friday and RPR posted it on their facebook page and I have caught nothing but hate over it lol. https://www.facebook.com/171816342851415/videos/988118534554521 FWIW, the hellcat later went high 10s.

Good run OP
