    John, just pulled trigger on a Trackhawk, and I just so happen to live in Texas, And work for a motorsport company...so I'm interested in where your shop is and what can you do for me on such a new vehicle (i.e. will my Diablo tuner be useful, CAI, Exhaust, etc._

    720 at the wheels is 847 at the crank. Even before the PCM ts rated higher than the PCM output. I fucking love when OEM do that shit. Demonlogys Demon is 932 at the wheels. 92 hp more than factory advertised, that's fucking insane.

    Hey John aren't all these Hemi powered cars still on the S class chassis???🤔🤔

  • @aitorror3659
    @aitorror3659 Před 6 lety

    Now the true question is what's the point of cars like Bentley Continental or the Veyron...
    The challenger is basically the same, but RWD and way cheaper. It is still comfortable (from what you're saying) and powerfull. Basically accomplishes the same goals as the Bentley, but you can buy a few hellcats for a price of one Bentley.

    • @flame5169
      @flame5169 Před 6 lety +3

      They're more like status symbols. If people wanted luxury for "low" money, they would get an S class or a Lincoln

    • @aitorror3659
      @aitorror3659 Před 6 lety

      S Class is stupidly expensive. From what I can see, most of the U.S. Cars even the mid spec ones, are equipped so well that in EU, they would be considered Luxury.

    • @ripsrt6822
      @ripsrt6822 Před 6 lety

      Takes two to tango, car can't launch itself. Drivers that have no experience will lose no matter what rocket ship they pilot. Check out Demonology on CZcams, Guy will show you how it's done 😉

      buff samurai fred the thing is what's faster than those cars, they both cost 3X the price of the demon

    • @buffsamuraifred6037
      @buffsamuraifred6037 Před 6 lety

      Cruz96 Productions true but when dodge decided, to say the demon was the fastest production car ever built, they officially drew a line in the sand. They could've done way better if they used turbos instead of a supercharger, being that turbos are more efficient.

    • @TheMetalheadextreme
      @TheMetalheadextreme Před 6 lety +13

      They all launch like idiots too. They probably start it in first gear and just floor the gas all the way. Guaranteed wheelspin for days. One needs to understand their car if they want numbers out of it.

    • @nakilo57
      @nakilo57 Před 6 lety +2

      TheMetalheadextreme totally agree..I feel like most ppl have done nothing but glue the pedal to the floor expecting results smh

    • @TheMetalheadextreme
      @TheMetalheadextreme Před 6 lety +2

      There are numerous videos of hellcat owners explaining why they launch it in second gear instead to avoid wheelspin and yet the people launch the demon which has even more horse power and gearing for higher pickup in first gear with full throttle lol ofcourse it will spin. The videos that guys at drag times have uploaded are a fucking joke. Those guys are experienced and they know it very well. Seems more like intentional to put down the car. When I saw them spinning wheels in their launches till 60 I was like you got to be kidding me. I know it's not a prepped track but streets but I have never seen even a hellcat owner launching it like that over exaggerating the thing we already know, trying to prove a point. Yes we all know this already if you hit the gas to the fullest in a rear wheel drive car with 808 hp and above it is going to have a lot of wheelspin.
