We Race Dodge In A 2015 Hellcat Challenger

Let's all take notes

**GTP231** · 02-27-2015, 06:42 AM

It's only a fair race if they use the red key

**KahanaReef** · 02-27-2015, 02:03 PM

They forgot to mention the red key

**024mula** · 02-27-2015, 04:08 PM

They showed the red key. 10:05 in video

I guess the red key only has to be in the car because hers is in the cup holder. 9:07 in video

Chrysler doesn't have a fancy holder slot for that style key like Nissan
It's a joke from another Hell Tank video about the key

**99ss405** · 02-27-2015, 06:11 PM

just keep it in your pocket. The door unlocks when you touch it and the starter is push button so you really never have to take it out of your pocket for anything.

**GTP231** · 03-02-2015, 06:15 PM

Ooooo they've gotten fancier with the push buttons. I had to press the unlock button when I was still at the dealer

Hellcats are cool but I'm more interested in the r/t scat pack. 35k=485hp

RT scat pack with the shaker hood. Thing is badass and direct throwback to the early '70s. Damn the EPA and damn the Man.

I'm right there with you...great bang for the buck.

**99ss405** · 03-04-2015, 03:47 PM

I got the video un private now

**cam02ss** · 03-04-2015, 04:32 PM

Well, the first thing I learned immediately upon opening that video was that she got the host slot because of her tits. Certainly wasn't her face. 2nd observation. If you're gonna put DR on the car? Why would you put Nittos on there and not MT ET Streets? Come on...

**99ss405** · 03-04-2015, 06:44 PM

did the video work ?

**cam02ss** · 03-05-2015, 06:38 AM

Yes

**67CamaroRSSS** · 03-05-2015, 02:44 PM

Nitto = Weak sauce grip (boo hiss)...

MT ET DR's = Manly man grip (YEAH! HUZZAH!).

I went for DR's because the ET Streets tend to dance around on the big end (typical with radials on the front and bias ply on the back).

FWIW, I've used/tried all 3. I had ET Streets on the 67 but I also had Sportsman Front tires on it. Tried Nittos (got them lightly used and cheap - sold them for what I paid for them) on the 02 but switched to MT DR's. Insta hook off the line @ 2500rpm stall got a 1.7x 60'...

Driver mod FTW.

**cam02ss** · 03-06-2015, 03:05 AM

40 years from now, I wonder what a mint, un-modded, all original Hellcat Challenger will sell for at a place like Barrett? Same with the Z28, GT350, etc. Do you think any of these cars will have the collectability that some of the original muscle cars have?

Yes, they absolutely do!

For some reason, I just don't think they will 'as much'.......because now people buy them with that idea in mind. Back then, not many were 'put in a bubble', so to speak.
