Default Viper TA vs Hellcat

Hey guys, for those interested, this is the same hellcat that raced the CG C7Z. From the labeling of their vids, I can only think these guys are asking for someone to put the cat down.

2015 DODGE VIPER TA VS 2015 DODGE HELLCAT would u spend the extra money on the viper????? - YouTube
Roll racing at a drag strip? I guess they were trying to take the driver skill out of the mix , regardless that video shows both cars having traction problems, and the viper driver short shifting(do to the wheel spin as I stated above ) then hitting the rev limiter pretty bad, not a clean pass.

If I'm not mistaken it may be from the track rental nineball did, same ones where the Z's ran. That's the same hellcat that ran the Z on the highway too.

I'm pretty sure you are right, it's pretty much a fail run, but I would love to see some highway runs between these two cars in warmer weather, I wouldn't know which car I would put money on.

Same idiots that posted the spinning C7Z06 vid. I was there and watched the TA miss a shift in this vid hence the rev limiter. He didn't post the other vid where the TA walked it (imagine that) or my run with him where he didn't fair very well.

Based on the traps we saw all day my money is on Viper for any run into the triple digits. Fastest hellcat trap that day was 127, fastest stock Viper trap was 134.

I could definatly hear that rev limiter banging , you could see the viper starting to pull until he missed, i was just trying to be impartial because I have had seat time in a gen v, and nothing in the cat.
I am ordering a gen V shortly.

The cars are close I think well driven a stock TA would only pull it by a car or car and a half. He missed third in this vid and I'm well into 4th at 135 going through the traps so this was a roll starting top of first through 2nd and then it shut off?

Flatout,

It is funny that they didn't post your wins or the Z. It won't be long before someone takes it down.
