Same day, same track, same conditions, trans to trans, and similar driver ability, I have never seen a bolton SS keep up with a Hellcat. Not with trap speed. Even a ZL1 won't have the same trap speed as a stock HC. If DA is going to affect the HC's times and speeds then it will affect the SS too. And I'm not seeing it affect them to where a SS is keeping up unless those other cars had less experienced drivers. And again, even then the speed should not be the same as a SS. Or do you think the extra 200+ HP tp the wheels just vanish into thin air? I would need to see the slips.
Now if for some reason you think a bolt on SS can trap the same as a Hellcat then go and roll race one and let me know how that works out for you. It ain't a pissing contest. I simply do not see it as being possible unless the SS driver has much better skill and the HC and ZL1 drivers are less skilled. Which is more than likely the case as you will typically see higher skilled drivers in lower powered cars on average I would think. Now if for some reason you still don't understand or you do think a bolt on SS can match a HC then I think this conversation is over.

Wow, you really are sticking your head in the sand. OP and myself have given data from legitimate dragstrips. OP even had SAME run data for the 2 cars. Remember, he said stock Hellcat, which means street tires not drag tires. ETs for Hellcats on street tires as we know suck, and even their trap speeds are lower than those using drag tires. Street-tire Hellcats here at low altitude typically run 120~122, it's the modded Hellcats on drag tires where you can see 124~125, or sometimes more. My own partial-bolt-on SS went 122 on street tires and 125 on drag tires btw. Consider the fact that the Hellcat weighs HUNDREDS of pounds more than a bolt-on SS, and that street tires hinder even the lower-hp SS let alone the 707 hp Hellcat, and these are a couple of factors in why the OP in a bolt-on SS on street tires beat the Hellcat on street tires in the standing 1/4 mile.
