Stangmode 2020 GT500 vs. Redeye

[Serpent]

redeye has everything against it, more weight, aero of a brick. only thing pushing it is more power and time out in public hands. we should revisit these threads in 1-2 years when the GT500 is in full swing. When you think about it there arent even any challengers in the 7s (besides a drag pack), when there are coyotes living in the 7s since what 2012? LOL

You know the Redeye is winning this bout when the 7 sec 5.0s need to come to the rescue. LOL!

The gt500 has been in development and progressing since 2007.

Given your logic, and the fact that a Hellcat has indeed been 7's, the GT500 has a LOOOOOONG way to go

The Epling Garage Hellcat Challenger is in the 7s!

Stock GT500 is very impressive indeed, and in a drag race with a stock Redeye, its a drivers race (this guy left at least a tenth on the table in 60').
Mod the cars equally (or in favor of the GT500 at this point) and the Redeye is the dominant vehicle.
When GT500s start running consistent low 9s with a pulley/E85 and tires, the field will be leveled.

ALso, if we're gonna start bringing boosted Coyotes in this conversation, I'll just say it. Junkyard LS FTW! LOL.

What ? GT500 has run 6s a long time ago

New gt500 is coyote based, the older GT500s are irrelevant really, no auto/dct option till now. Doesnt even use the same chassis or rear suspension. I'm talking about comparing new stuff, 2015 is when the hellcat came out? How many hellcats are in the 8s? How long did it take for a demon to run low 9s? The 2020 gt500 is already in low 9s and it came out what 3 months maybe 4 months ago? Cant beat lighter weight and better aero.
Only a matter of time till they get the dct situated.
How is a junkyard LS relevant, completely different brand not even remotely swapped into the same chassis cars. Coyote, GT500, S550 are still in the same ballpark.

Its more a shot at all challenger cars, thats why i asked how many if any are in the 7s, besides the drag pack.

GT500 had seats removed, but was on a lesser tire
Redeye had a legit tire, but all the seats

Good race...take seats out of the Blackeye and put a real tire on the GT100 and re-run it

I sub to Stangmode's channel. The guy tells you exactly what he is doing to his cars and takes his wins and losses in stride. He provides good content IMO. He has respect for other cars/brands and the dudes he races seem to like him. His 2018 GT is going to be a beast when he finishes it.

When we're at the point of removing seats, comparing tires, etc. I think it is safe to say that both cars are stout and go really fast. I'll take one of each, please.

There are way more hellcats in the 8s than I think anyone here realizes.

What GT500 is running low 9s? Best I have seen was like a 9.4X?

Some sick content bro, real cliffhangers! Can’t wait to see how he makes a 20 min vid on filling up with some gas.

People need to stop supporting click bait garbage.

So I didn't read one post but saw who's posting. My bet is Zyborg and Diablo Mike are hunkered down dodging sniper fire waiting for more hellcat support. How'd I do?

I haven’t watched those. You cherry pick 2 videos. I could easily cherry pick just as many where he does multiple runs at Atco or takes video of EP’s 2020 GT500 doing low 9’s.

Does his GT500 sound like a jet?

Louder than a jet bro!

evolution's gt500 ran a 9.135 at 154.23mph. Here:

Only a matter of time before someone hits 8s.

I've quit watching many of these guys and only subscribe to the true backyard amateurs spending their own money.

I wouldn’t be shocked to see it happening by summer. At the very latest fall with the cool air coming back.

Thats impressive, and more along the lines of what they should be doing IMO.
I am curious though, has it done this more than once in the same day? Or was this a hero pass?
