  • My first impressions driving a 2018 Dodge Challenger Hellcat Widebody. How does it compare to driving my 2016 Charger R/T with the Hemi 5.7 with a Comp Cams camshaft? How much faster is the Hellcat than R/T?

    The Hellcats really are something special, they shook up the entire car industry. When they first came out auto journalists were all losing their minds! haha. You're right they are a blast to drive man, enjoy it!

      Why would Hellcats shake up the car industry?

      @@Justin_GFM because before that 700 hp cars were unheard of. The introduction of the Hellcat made everyone in the industry have to up their horsepower numbers to keep up. There was a sudden spike in performance car numbers in the years after it’s introduction.

      Haha - I'm pretty confident that your R/T build would leave me in the dust at the drag strip, though

    Hey man, I’m 6’3 just factory ordered a R/T in July just waiting on it to be shipped to the dealer, just wondering how much space you have in the Challenger being a tall guy yourself? Is it comfortable to drive?

    • @DonnySRT
      @DonnySRT  Рік тому +3

      It's not bad but I definitely sit pretty high in it. If you push the seat back further it's not too bad. The camera makes it look worse than it actually is

      don't worry dude I got a friend who's 6 foot 4 and I let him drive my challenger and he had no problem at all I even sat behind him just to prove how much room there is.

      I wonder what the wear is like on those? Not for crazy traction on the street. I have the ET Street Rs for the drag strip

      Definitely second that, improved track times and more confident cornering. Ive had them for an year and a half and they've treated me quite well. I use a pair of cheap good years for donuts n stuff, then switch to these when I get on track
