I found this video searching for manual hellcat povs, I'm happy with it. I wish more people used these wide angles while driving manuals...Cause most times you don't even see them changing gears and I'm like, well it might as well be an automatic.
Just looked at a 2022 RT 6 speed….I’m stupid rusty when it comes to manuals as I’ve only driven a few in my life and only had one to daily for a short while. But god this makes me want one, that sound 🥵😍🤤
dude i've sat back and watched this video 5 or 6 times in the past two weeks. i think a r/t manual might be my next car in a few years. if you made more cruse videos like this with no music or talking i'd watch every one of them too. i kind of like sublime and want to do one kinda styled like an old trans am car with big wide steelies.
it handles well for what it is! i have taken the car to the mountains a few times i need to upgrade the brakes because the brake fade is really bad without the brembo's. i wish to take the car to a track day this year and i will film it!
Holy mother of god. Never seen a 2nd to 3rd shift that quick. I got a 19 Challenger Shaker RT with a 6M. Absolutely love driving a 6 speed. Had it for a year and hadn’t driven a manual for 13 years before it. Guess I am a little rusty. Great video though.
I was thinking about either getting a used 2015 Mustang GT or a used 2015 Challenger RT but after hearing about all the issues with the Mustang's manual transmission, I think the RT is the move. I think it's got a good amount of horsepower for me to have for a third car as well
Thank you for this, trying to find a daily driver with manual and not a lot of tech with relatively good mileage. Shopping is kinda hard, few and far between.
I have a 2016 RT manual too, the first thing I did was swap out the silly "ball" shifter for a Mr. Norms pistol grip. Makes me think I'm back in my 1970 Cuda again.
@@Gladiator34B I replaced the ball shifter two weeks after I bought the car, looks and shifts much better, The pistol grip shifter should come from the factory in all manual Challengers, if I wanted a ball I'd bought a Camaro or Mustang.
Plump_rt nice 👌🏼I wanted to get a 392 but I need to start off with something small other wise I’m going to do stupid thangs and get in trouble I rather be safe then sorry lol
Lol something small? Have you rode in a 5.7 challenger? They are fast as hell man. They definitely got balls. Everyone thinks if you don’t have the 6.4 hemi then you don’t have shit. The 5.7 is a monster of a motor for the price.
One question, why don’t people just go from 5th or 4th to neutral and stop instead of putting stress on your engine by downshifting to engine brake and then to neutral, i see everyone downshift to a low gear and then neutral but I don’t know why
It’s pretty easy to drive imo. The pedals are spaced a good bit from what I remember/ heel toe is difficult. The stock shifter is sloppy but it does the job. And clutch feel was nice. Nice decent weight to it but it’s not super heavy
I have just bought mine a 17 challenger ta / rt plus and i do like the feel and the roar you just feel different in this car compared to a mustang or camaro this is an attention grabber but 2nd shift feel kinda sticky all other gears are smooth but 2nd feels kinda jumpy unless you shift a little on the lower side rpms like 2500 and down, once you hit 3000 and up it will feel like you need to hold the clutch in a little longer for it to barely be noticeable other than that sport mode gives it a nice little murica (american) punch
Unfortunately I don’t have the 6 speed. I will get another stick shift in the future. But it’s simple. 1. Clutch in 2. Downshift into next gear - (at the same time) Blip the throttle Enough to match the revs for the lower gear. 3. Release clutch That’s how I did it
I have a 2016 Challenger RT 6 speed manual. Awesome! I absolutely love it. Except dodges piss poor quality when it comes to air conditioning keeps breaking down😡😠😡😠
Less than five years old and 36000 miles and had to replace the evaporator twice. First time was covered under the warranty and the second time cost me $2,500. Unacceptable quality! The car and this is my third brand new Dodge however I will never buy another Dodge product
Getting wheelspin on a 2-3 shift is one of the most invigorating, spine-tingling, blood-rushing feelings an individual can experience
😂😂😂
On cold tires on my RT I get get wheel spin 3-4 shift it’s pretty cool
Facts
u aint neva tried crack
the rt is not super fast but its enough to have some fun.
So glad someone is driving a stick! The RT 5.7 is the best value daily driver muscle car out on the market.
first challenger video ive seen that was actually a manual transmission. thumbs up.
thanks man, save the manuals!
@@tjh6992 manual till I die, or physically can't shift anymore
Jaime7188 same here, nothing will ever beat rowing gears
Except a 392 hahaha

I will make some more cruising videos soon! a 6 speed challenger is all you need man! thank you!
I'm looking to buy one soon to..what mpg u get and what grade gas? Looki to lease one
6 Speed is the best performance in my opinion... I have the RT Plus Shaker, and it is a blast!
Nice PoV !! Mopar Brotherhood!
Had 17ss 6speed loved it, had scat auto, loved it, but really want 392, 6 speed!
I love the fact that you're not scared to take turns in this thing man we need more of it lol. Have you taken it a road course or autocross event??

Sick! I beat the crap out of the RT and she took it. The transmission holds well from my experience
Bro the gt has almost 100 more horsepower
@@Judgemental_Crow ☝🏼.
@@Judgemental_Crow There's a 60 hp difference between the R/Ts 375 hp and the GT's 435 hp
Gotta love the manuals!
Thank you for this, trying to find a daily driver with manual and not a lot of tech with relatively good mileage. Shopping is kinda hard, few and far between.
I'm in the same boat. I found a 2012 challenger rt for 11500 but I've been looking for a while too.
That should be a bumper sticker : “ HI MY NAME IS (insert your name here) I AM NINETEEN, I NEVER LEARNED HOW TO READ”.
Im looking at an rt 2016 six speed just like yours and let me tell u. Im convinced lol
Make sure to get the track pack! It’s a great car!
The second you pull up to the function: “You’re Late!”
Cars badass bro,These manual challengers are fun asf to drive
They are!

@@BetaRacer24 1800 RPM ~
@@tjh6992 what rear gear? Is there a choice with the manual?

Wow someone actually driving a manual Challenger. 👍
Sadly I don’t have her anymore!
@@tjh6992 upgraded?
@@QuintonTV yeah 392 shaker. It’s the auto tho. Was my dads and he past it on to me
That’s sick!
thanks bro!
Manual AND plum crazy?? Super jealous
i miss her somtimes!
Cool vid. Cool car. What's the blinking yellow light in front of the stick?
that was the A/C turned on my camera makes the light look like its flashing
I was actually planning on getting one of these just wanted to ask does it have a auto rev match when you down shift?
Genome unfortunately no.
Plump_rt ahhh damit gonna have to do it the old fashion way that quick tap to the gas 😂
It’s a dodge not a mustang !😂😂
I live 10 minutes from where this is filmed, crazyy
Those are some giant Civic wings lmao
lmaoo one of them makes 400 whp tho

just awesome maan

oh my god i live there holy shit i knew it looked familiar
whats up G
this video is great, it would be great if you talk about what you did at that time, it will be more interesting to watch

4th to neutral and stop instead of putting stress on your engine by downshifting to engine brake and then to neutral, i see everyone downshift to a low gear and then neutral but I don’t know why
You should always be in gear when you are moving. Downshifting is barely bad for your engine or transmission, if at all.
Idk tbh. I like to engine break until I’m at a lower speed then I just slap it into neutral and use the breaks.
@@tjh6992 yea that’s what I do now, bought a 92 Miata about a month and it’s a blast
The sound
@@LeopardKUL true but other reasons also, when I commented this I didn’t own a car, now I own a 92 Miata and already building it 👍
How do you like this car as a first manual car for someone? Are the shifting mechanics good? (Heel toe, clutch feel, stick feel) Thanks.
It’s pretty easy to drive imo. The pedals are spaced a good bit from what I remember/ heel toe is difficult. The stock shifter is sloppy but it does the job.
And clutch feel was nice. Nice decent weight to it but it’s not super heavy
@@tjh6992 Thank you!
I want to say rice vs muscle, but those civics just might be packing some serious boost.
blue civic is supercharged and makes 400W lol
Where did you mount your camera ?
Go pro head mount. Or forehead mount
Is that some southern state? It seems to me after see this red brick houses
yo asking Alexandria though 🤌
helll yeah!
How to put the modo sport in 6 speeds video please
Only time I’ve ever touched 6th was on the highway over 80
How is the clutch and transmission..do you like the feel?
Yes the clutch feel was awesome imo. Not heavy and not too light it was perfect to me. The shifter was sloppy Also the second gear lockout is annoying
I got a 16 RT 6-speed manual with aftermarket hurst pistol grip shifter, nice precise short throws, its awesome!

@@royalsyndicate6893 Thank you for the feedback.
Can you make a video on how to rev match , downshift
Unfortunately I don’t have the 6 speed. I will get another stick shift in the future.
But it’s simple.
1. Clutch in
2. Downshift into next gear
- (at the same time) Blip the throttle Enough to match the revs for the lower gear.
3. Release clutch
That’s how I did it
@@tjh6992 thanks for the response! Will try it out
