The C7 Z06 destroys the Hellcat on every race that they had, even when the Hellcat gets the jump and the Z06 comes from behind to pass it no problem.

This is what you would expect with a car that weighs 1000s lbs less, even with the modest HP advantage going to the Challenger.

Exactly and the expected result. The Hellcat is an extremely cool offering with an insane demand but was not designed to roll with an ultra performer like the C7 Z06. Two wildly different vehicles who share little more than impressive peak HP #s.

Great vid! I thought I heard the Charger was going to be faster than the Challenger, guess not.

The C7 Z06 donkey-punched the A8 Hellcat Challenger, and it was a tick quicker than the Hellcat Charger. It wasn't even close. Anybody with half-a-brain would predict the outcome given the quarter mile performance of each car in the real world.
Love the last run against the Viper...the Z06 was stopped and the Viper took a rolling start.

So that means the C6 Z06 should do even better since it reaches 150 faster.. no? heh

I'm pretty sure if you put a C6 Z06 next to a C7 Z06 (particularly an A8), the C7 version would be well ahead by the time it hit 150 mph...or 1/4 mile...or a 1/2 mile.

I'm in Orlando too. We could meet up at Orlando Speedworld sometime and find out via some friendly racing.

I would go take a peek at that forum but decided not to do it. The rage tears always fog up the computer monitor.

Nineball has amply proven who's the king in a roll race, and no one can dispute it.
Lets not rehash fact.

Of course it's not, it doesn't favor the Z06.

Trap speeds seem a lot better on A8 autos too.
