The cricket jumps, the wise owl watches.... it dont pay to be trendy at times.

I will assume the first year production will
be a 1000 cars.. if it flies more the next year
but IMO they need a better name for it.. the
Hellcat is a cool name

I think it is good to see Fiat pretty much squash Ford and Shivvy's hopes and dreams of ever building anything to claim the title of BMF'r on the planet. That to me is golden.

The problem is still that GM and Ford are both
quicker on the 1/4 mile... Fiat has to get these
tanks lighter to compete

Does that come with a $99,999 price tag, too?

I agree they are porkers, but when you can walk away from those guys from 100mph roll on the freeway, that says it all to many.

You mean they bought them assuming they were "limited production / investment quality"?

Are they going to spell it "Challanger", instead of "Challenger", too?

I hear ya... but they need to get a trophy
or something so the public can see or show
its the quickest out there.. GM stouts all
their awards DAILY which is crap in a lot
of them.. being it was a GM magazine that
gave the award.. but people dont know which
mag is who its sponsored by

How in the heck roll races. What are we going for a land speed record. Cheese and rice

Cars are not measured performance wise only by their 1/4 mile times anymore man. I was just giving an example of a real world scenario that happens daily for some folks. I dont spose your Duster would be shine to well roll racing a Hellcat on the freeway would it?

If anyone is thinking a hellcat will turn into a 71 Hemi convertable in 40 plus years is a complete MORON.
From the start Fiat has said they will MASS produce these things and any dealer leaving one on the lot, waiting for the best price to sell will not receive another one to sell.
These cars are men't to last 5 to 7 years max, on regular driving. They want you to purchase another one and people will because 707 is not the king anymore.
Remember the first challenger 6.1 they had the 1 to 500 signature series. WOOPPIE doooo.
Now for the old verses new iron. WHO CARES! Build or buy what you want.
And for my post WHO CARES! like it or don't

Come on PBR back in the old days on the street many had mis matched combos and as well alot of us would go from a light/dead stop then go from a 30 roll if one couldnt launch well or hook, or had to drive into that big cam.

And then yes at times, go hit the interstate... but we avoided that because anyone too lean would burn pistons then.

But yes, serious street races were always from the light unless agreed otherwise.

PBR *HATES* any street or grudge race lol trust me, he calls us bad words

It's funny and good. Like to know if it's the same hardware as the hellcat? Block heads crank?

Dang my no porn filter blocks that movie....

Probably the same setup, just "adjusted" the computer like VW did.... not!

Street racing is for kids that haven't grown up yet. Stick around as it may happen. Roll racing well that's just - - -. Grungy racing is for those that like lots of BS and then a little bit of racing. We never in our lives roll raced and our record on one night was 52 cars racing, not races, RACING. If you couldn't set up your car to hook take up tennis.

Total hellcats are over 23k. Not sure how much. But around 7k the first year and think it was 16-17k the second year. No clue how many made for the 2017 year
We did not buy in hopes it would stay king of the hill. We bought it cause it's one bad [censored]. And just cause a more powerful cat comes out will not change it

Well said.

???! Do some searches on YouTube and there are plenty of Hellcat kills. Ford has nothing. The later model GT500's are close but no cigar. The new supercharged Vettes can MAYBE eek out a win but it's not a guarantee. Camaro's don't have it for the Hellcat either
