I do believe that is what Tim K. said, that "non professional" racers would be able to run 8's
You run into @vortecd at the track in a daily driver regular hellcat and he smokes your ass...??

I am starting to have flashbacks to the arguments from a few years ago about the Demon and the "Legion of Demon" events that were only open to Demon owners. The reasoning was that they needed a private place to run as many were not used to the track and didn't want to end up on Youtube.

This is good for the Forum, nothing like smacking the hornets nest with some "off" time slips.

Took the words right out of my mouth. NO ONE is going 8's till they start putting smaller pulleys and retuning them thats fact. I really cant ever remember anyone going 9.65 in the Demon without further mods.
I think they get there. MPH is close.
But again, mine shaft air and prep you will only get at a high profile event.

8.90 et bone stock is going to take a lot of effort and some luck.

Ripa was in super -DA and still only went 9.39.
I saw his FB post but didn't see any conditions posted.

If that is the case, this really is Demon part 2.

4 tenths away, that is a mountain.

Anyone who spent that kinda money on one of these isn't taking it to the track.
Sadly

Saw it was 400 DA which is wild. it was only in the low 50's here so I figure up there maybe mid 40's. but it could have been in higher elevation.

Well, when dealers say its an "8 second car" I can reply and say its a mid 9 second car.
I want a 50k discount LOL
10k for every tenth it missed.

Did Dodge ever produce a time slip of the 8.91 or are they pulling a Chevy C7 ZR1 and mashing up the performance with no videos released?

most likely will be able to achieve 8s easily and still have a solid car without spending too much ,which would be good

I wonder if the warranty is voided by racing it?

That tenth in the short time will come when they figure out the launch… and desired tire pressure and prep

To be determined now that you’re going turbos. Might slow down in a big way.
