Default LOL Hellcat

A lot of you have seen a pic of my sticker, on my quarter windows. If not, I'll put a pic below. Last time out at the track, I had a hellcat owner come and "ask" about it. He said he wanted to see the hellcat killer. This was my first time out at the track since all my mods. I did not get the launch I needed, and only went 10.7 @ 135mph. The hellcat was a full bolton with auto tranny and drag radials. I was on my drag radials as well. He said "when I win, I'm scraping off that sticker!" I said "Deal!"

Sticker stayed on, and will always stay on. Lol

^^^^Well then I guess it's not for you. It's nothing like putting LOL VW on your Ferrari. Me having owned both cars I can speak from expierence. But carry on with your disgust. Nobody here is going to stop you, or care.

funny. great rivalry.. too bad they're a one trick pony

the one in my pic is my friend Eddie's. his is pretty fast. runs 10.0's all day long. he's won events for consistent 10.0's and even pulled a 9.99 before.

think his best was 135mph.

great guy, let me and our other friend use his trailer to pick up our Z06's from Mike Furman (3.5hrs away..)

I never understood stickers or license plates which try to poke fun at other makes/models. Do you realize you're trying to show superiority over a modified fleet/rental car? It's more fitting for a Camaro or Mustang, but no less tacky.

It's like me putting a "LOL VW" sticker on my Ferrari.

I've seen a few run low 10's, but I think I'll be running the same. I just need more track time with this car

Yeah I'm sure you will..

A friend of mine down here with a full bolt on/E85 C7Z M7 went a 10.23@138 with a sick clutch...That was in really good air... He only has a handful of passes on the car as well. I'm sure with his new clutch and more seat time he will be REALLY close to sneaking in the 9s.

Good run, but I think that sticker is silly.

Couldn't have said it better myself! It's at the lower scale of things to do to upper-end cars. Not becoming of a Corvette and tacky! But it's difficult to try to convince the minority that believe this is okay or cool cause they just don't get it and will just blast you for saying it. And don't usually people aim higher and not lower??

Looks like a proper holeshot. My buddy has a hellcat, runs 9's with amazingly few mods. Crazy car that I almost bought, but I love road racing too much!

One of my best friends just sold his. He never ran it at the track, just street raced. I put the sticker on as a way of messing with him. Now it's caused so much talk at the track, I'll keep it. Most track guys laugh and give me thumbs up. It's just for fun

Nice run. And ignore those saying it is "tacky" or "not becoming of a Corvette". It is a cool rivalry. My buddy has a Hellcat and we always go at it. Some people need to lighten up and find real things to be upset about.
