That sucks Whip, but you know it could have been a lot worse. Hopefully your wife isn’t shaken up too bad, I think it’s sweet that she is willing to give it some gas and have some fun, the back of the car is a small price to pay to have a cool chick.

I don’t know that HCs have that fuel cut off like Fords, never found one myself, so if it doesn’t have fuel pressure it’s probably lack of demand from the ECU because of the codes.
it was called an inertia switch an the hellcat does not have one. even ford stopped using them.

Wife that hates your cars and how you drive them < wife that’s cool like you and does burnouts

You can fix a Hellcat with a few grand. You ever try to fix a wife? How’d that work out?

Did it cost more than a new bumper? lol.
Whip - doing the same wheels or taking the opportunity to change it up? I like the ones you have, they’re sexy.

Little About the wifey. She’s cool as shit with cars. And she loves my hellcat. I was in the shower when she wrecked it. I answered and she was balling like a baby saying she crashed it. She was losing it. All I made she she was ok. Rest doesn’t matter. Fuckin car is all it is. I got allot of blood and sweat in it, but I’ll deal with it.

the hurting over the car didn’t hit me till a few days after. Sucks having it out of commission. The projects never end!

when it comes to the wife, she knows all my crazy hobbies. I’ve shown up with a full auto 50 cal ma deuce strapped to the bed of my truck, and she didn’t even ask how much I paid. Didn’t give a shit.

only rule that I follow is no motorcycles. Dirt bikes ok. But no motorcycles. I’ve lost two good friends on bikes. So I say no. Other than that. Everything goes for me. Send it.

Certainly I, and I hope everyone else, was only giving you a hard time, no real harm meant.

not even an ounce of offense taken. I think it’s all funny stuff to hear how different guy look at it. We all have our own ways with the wives.

My wife can take out what she wants, except when I own a ford Gt. When I get that car. No one except my dad and Jesus would be allowed to touch it. And Jesus gonna have to ride shotgun.

Sad about your HC. When I bought my 11 Challenger SRT my wife drove it once, never asked again, it scared her.
When I got my 19 Challenger HC she never asked, ever. I'm happy.

I’ll have the entire rear end body panels pulled off by tomorrow. I’ll take some more pictures.
