    Such an awesome car, they really did a nice job with it. The Redeye hellcat is still dropping a fair bit more power, but there's probably like 700lbs weight difference between them so this may beat it out anyway...and the hellcat will never turn like this will, I reckon. Very cool stuff. Love it.

    • @feke5987
      @feke5987 4 роки тому +25

      Well both are very different cars. Dodge is all about being crazy and always being the king at the quarter mile. Dodges are probably the purest muscle car experience you can still get. Mustangs and Camaros have gone more into the sports car territory (even if they were pony cars and not muscle cars) If you want to have fun the Redeye definitely gives you that. But the mustang is also a track car that still has muscle DNA.

    • @jackhale371
      @jackhale371 4 роки тому +8

      It's only 200-300 pounds lighter, BUT it has a dual clutch transmission. So its gonna be quite a bit quicker of the line. Also who knows! Maybe itll be quicker in the quarter mile and on the drag strip. We already know it will be alot better in the turns, like on a road course or whatever. But if it beats the hellcat and hellcat redeye on the road course, AND the drag strip then ill be really impressed. Blown away actually. That would be very impressive!

      It's just a prime example that we need to employ people in jobs/occupations that they love, instead of forcing people to work a job they hate just to get a paycheck.
      If everyone enjoyed their job, they would be happy to go to work. They would do better in that position than someone that doesn't care about it. And that goes for every industry.
      What we have in the world now, is people scattered into occupations they hate, and they end up doing that their whole lives. Wasting potential, wasting their talents, and making people miserable. Society has expanded too fast for us to do it properly. We should genuinely consider options to restructure the work force around the country/world if we want humanity to succeed.

All of the buttons on the interior are all tiny and that car in particular is less than four feet tall.

      They just KILLED IT with the design and styling! It seems like when anyone does a 'wide body' for a high performance varient, they tend to exaggerate it or over emphasize it; but, this is just a very focused, cohesive design all the way around. Even the carbon fiber usage; carbon fiber can look as gawdy as swaths of chrome can, but, even with all exposed(clear coated) carbon wheels, it's just in all the 'right places' without just being scattered everywhere "...cuz high performance car and carbon fiber is high performance, so the door panels have to be all carbon fiber[even though we just put the carbon on top of a standard door panel so it doesn't actually save any weight...]"

I can’t imagine how Dave felt hearing the story standing there while Edsel Ford is talking about not only a page out of his memory but actual Motorsport legend. To say we will do our very best to put the trophy in your hands must have felt a little overwhelming to say as well as a huge amount of stress. I would love to know what Edsel thought about what Dave said, did he think it was truly possible or just another very passionate Ford employee telling him what he would like to hear but in the pit of Edsel’s stomach knowing the extraordinary feat that must be achieved to make that commitment a reality.

    Guys: I had a Ford "Total Performance" matched hi-rise intake and cam and lifter set. Bought it from the Ford Dealer's parts counter (No longer have my catalog Jay). Ford designed the parts to work together as a system. I installed it on my 64 1/2 Mustang convertible - 289 4 bb, 4-speed. Ran 14.00's all day long. This was in 1969 - at that time, a lot of hot cars like GTO's and Road Runners didn't run 14's. Those Ford parts were the nuts.

      @@mgabrysSF Hell, I don't even think that it's Jay bringing them in at this point - rather I think some of these automakers got burned a couple times by sending PR guys to show off their new car; and Jay just ends up kinda embarrassing them with questions that 'your dad' would ask. Want to actually get a beneficial result out of putting your new car on Jay's show? Then you better bring someone that knows what the hell they're talking about!
      Now, with that said, Ford has always been good about sending the 'right' people - but that's easy enough to do when you have a high performance division called the "Special Vehicle Team", now 'Ford Performance' of course.
      I'm not always happy with some of Ford's decision making(...I mean, literally NO CARS for north America that aren't a Mustang or GT? Not even the Focus???), but they have ALWAYS done high performance vehicles right - and, unlike basically the rest of the industry, they're the only ones that see lap times as being secondary to the driving experience.
