Damn government computers, can't access that forum for some reason (****ing Comm Nazis). Cliffs please?
disregarding how hilariously idiotic that is....
"most powerful V8 ever produced"
guess they are taking from the bill clinton book... "that depends what your definition of the word 'produced' is"

Lol I love it
So that is their big claim to being a vette killer? Okay you make more power but that isn't what makes any car a "killer". People put hayabusa motors in smart cars and them little boogers are fast but it ain't no vette killer! The point is in order to be killer of another is it has to dominate all aspects of the other car while being the same price range. The other point is these are two different types of cars, Muscle car vs Sports car, so why not make a claim against a similar car? Z28, ZL1, GT500 would be more of better claim but even then not a "killer" of any of these except the ZL1 IMO. Don't get me wrong this car is badass and I would be happy to own one but Dodge is letting this 707 go to it's head!!

If I had the coin I'd purchase both the Vette and the HC.
Looking forward to this 707 monster beating the Z06 in 1/4 times, breaking, slalom, and road course. Until then....you beat it on paper with HP ratings.
I detect serious backfire in the near future.
I'm confused.
The article starts off saying....
"After years of being "King of The Streets!" The Chevrolet Corvette has found it's final resting place."
Then the article says....
"I'm guessing with a tune, headers, and exhaust your pushing close to 800 horsepower. When that happens the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and Z06 will be nothing more than target practice!"
So the top of the line challenger is faster than the base model corvette, putting the corvette in it's final resting place.
But then you have to modify the top of the line challenger to beat the stock top of the line corvette.
What happens when you add tune, headers and exhaust to the new Z06 or the ZR1?
And what the heck is "power to rate" ratio?

if only hp was the only equation of owning a muscle car then yes the hellcat will have its 15 minutes of fame but i bet in less than 1 years time it will be old news and beat out in the hp wars by something. still kinda dumb saying its a vette killer before the zr vette comes out. lol
Written before the 2015 Z06 specs were available ?
Once I opened the link I immediately closed it cause I knew it was gonna bring the stupid.
The Hellcat is the top end of the Dodge performance line-up, isn't the Z06 and ZR1 the top of chevy's?
Pretty sure that "stock for stock" the Z06 would be faster in most straight line tests.

Pretty sure the Z06 is faster in all aspects not just a straight line....
I find it funny with all the hellcat talk everyone forgets the Viper is the top of the Dodge lineup!
MOPAR. Overrated cars, for equally gaudy fanboys.
We all know it and they should as well. It should be compared to the higher end vettes and the hellcat should be compared to the mustang, camaro etc.
