Anyway ran into the guy at the gas station near LVMS. Cool looking car. I hear they are all already spoken for and that dealerships are to get two each. Should be interesting to see how many if any make it to NHRA Stock and SS racing.

Our store will be marking them up $10K minimum over MSRP. He told MSRP will be around $74K, with little in the way of option deletes. High end car, for high end wallets.

So you take your factory stock street car to the test n tune at your local track only to get bounced.. 10.99 and quicker: 1. Aftermarket balancer 2. Aftermarket Axles 3. Transmission Shield 4. Roll Bar 5. 16.1 3" driver restraint (seat belts) 6. 3.2A/1 Jacket 7. Helmet That's just my quick list.. EDIT: I did find that NHRA lifted the roll bar deal from 2008 and up factory stock "UNALTERED" vehicles.. So, if you put drag radials on, you have just altered the car.. I wonder how strict tech will be on these cars.. Chris.. Last edited by Chris'sBarracuda; 07/12/14 04:55 AM.

Example, next Camaro is going to be 800lbs~ lighter than the current one and likely have even more power. Like they said in the one video, if you missed the first muscle car era, don't miss this one!

My initial impression is that they should require owners to meet all the applicable safety requirements. Mopar should put an SFI approved balancer on these cars from the factory. It does hurt that you need to put a roll bar in a factory car, but the rules are there for a reason. You can't go 120 mph legally on the street, but you can on the race track.

It is hard enough to come up with $74k MSRP, but to pay $10k over MSRP is not going to happen for me. Even the SRT sticker price is expensive for many of us.

Leaked price is 59K I hope you are right and the HellCat sold to the public will back those numbers up 59k is not a Bad price for a fully driven A/C and the works street car that runs those numbers. Look at the price of the Vettes and they sell as fast as they hit the Show Room floor! Face it if you are gonna have to pay that much $$$ for something wouldn't you really rather have a Mopar! Way to go Mopar now build us what we need for some 800+cu in Mopar engines.Build them we will buy them! "To Be The Man'You Have Got To Beat The Man" "T/D and Pro-Bracket Racer"
