I always get a good laugh when people start talking about handling or the “track capabilities of their car when they have never been near a real track. In the last 20 plus years I’ve owned many different types of performance cars/, vettes, vipers, Camaros, mustangs, crotch rockets etc... Ive encountered many things on the street, but one thing I’ve never been asked is to race around the corner of the intersection.

They are very cool cars and make great power. I have a Scat Pack now (which I love too) and I will be trading up to a Hellcat within the next year or so. Dodge did great with this generation Challenger overall.

. I do prefer tooling around in the c6 though...430hp with 3300 pounds is just as much fun as 485 in 4300 pounds. If I could afford the kitty, well I could but, I would have one just for the bucket list. I looked for a few months but eventually chickened out.
I think they are fabulous machines. No other muscle car comes close for the sheer audacity alone..

Please... Put your DR's on and roll down the 1320. That's all the HC is good for. Don't take it as an insult. It's not meant to be. I used to get out joint when people said my 14 GT500 couldn't handle and was one trick pony. Truth is, after owning a Boss, a 14 GT500, an A8 HC and currently owning my 350R and my Z51, they were right. The R is the best handling car that I'll ever own. So where are we now? Can your HC handle? Sure. A little bit better than they used to I guess but don't come into a Corvette forum and play like the HC can hang amongst a Z, GS, or Z51 in the turns. I can play that game in here with my R but the only game you can play in here with your HC is in the 1320 threads.
cant have a thread like this w/o a post like this...
