Default 2013 Paxton 5.0 vs Challenger Hellcat
This guy claims it's stock, and that it is just a factory freak. Knowing what the 5.0 puts down, I'm not sure about that. Thoughts?

If a 5bro with a Paxton can run that good against a 6.2 supercharged Dodge, just imagine how bad a 6.2 supercharged Chevy will beat 'em, all cars being stock.
Looks like another failed attempt at credibility on Chryslers part.



Waiting for some Chevy Nutt Hugger vid's to prove my point.

Wow! I have new respect for the Hellcat. I thought they were not as fast because of their excess weight but it seems, they truly do run hard.
I am impressed.

Saw this on some FB groups this morning. Hellcat seems to be holding its own.

Looks right to me. Hellcat has shown to trap mid to upper 120s. Your average Paxton setup 5.0 traps upper 120s. Not to mention the 5.0 driver needs to pick up those shifts... good god.

If you think that's truly a 200 shot viper you're dumb as ****.

Hellcats now that people are figuring them out seem to run well with the weight

Weight is negated significantly from a roll.

As expected, these HCs are no joke, but hooking them up will be a challenge. Waiting to see anyone come close the the NHRA certification in the 1/4.

I look forward to seeing these things on a race wheel and some bolt ons/pulley swap. Should see a lot of these things smashing out low 10 second passes

It's not my video, nor is it my claim that there is a 200 shot involved.

Still waiting on the charger version. Think I might need to start saving up for this car lol. Is there still no races between this and the GT500?
