I'm not sure why Dodge uses a high octane, tuned hp number and everybody else (even HPE) uses pump gas stock tune numbers. The Demon makes 808 on pump gas, so using these ratios, mine should make around 880 on a 100 octane tune

500 lbs. is huge.

Very impressive number. I wonder how it achieves such traction. Is it a 4-link car? lol

The Demon has independent rear suspension, no 4 link. It does come from the factory 18" wheels and drag radials, however many people install 17" wheels and drag radials for a little more traction. The Demon also comes with a crate to swap out skinny front tires improving the launch, it also has different springs than the standard Hellcat optimized for drag racing, they are softer to enhance launch. The car also has a drag mode, which the ECM is tuned to improve the launch as well. It includes a transbrake and launch control too, but most Demon owners get the best results from foot brake launch instead of using the launch control.
That's why I said, when it comes to drag racing, the Demon has all the bells and whistles. They will go low 10's in the 808hp mode, and high 9's in the 840hp mode with a very good prepped track and a very good driver in good DA. In fairness though, the majority run low 10's with an average track and average DA.
