Jeebus. And it’s only a few grand more than the new Scat Pack Charger. Ouch.

Was this top speed or top speed in 1 mile?

The "Johnny Bohmer Proving Grounds" YT channel specifically distinguishes between "Top Speed" and "1 Mile Top Speed."

Use their search to locate either one or the other (i.e., "Hellcat Top Speed" or "Hellcat Standing Mile").

For ex:

2019 Dodge Challenger Hellcat Redeye | (Top Speed Test)
191.314 mph

same vehicle ...

2019 Dodge Challenger Hellcat Redeye | (Standing Mile Top Speed)
173.410 mph

Widebody has more drag (flares and tires).

176mph with DAs in the 8500ft range.

There is a strange trade off in lost power versus air resistance in the upper realm of Cd/HP balance, hence the quote in my signature.

Hey Bull, was that with the 3.70 or 3.90?
