Like I said before, 122 was like the Hellcats have been running here on street tires, remember that I certainly did not say I had raced a stock Hellcat on this pass.
As far as the bolt-on SS only matching the stock Hellcat in 1/4 mile trap speed if something went wrong with the Hellcat, that would mean ALL of the Hellcats on street tires, and I've seen PLENTY of them on the dragstrip, have something wrong. You are either guessing wrong on the high side for stock Hellcat trap speed, guessing wrong on the low side for bolt on SS trap speed in the 1/4 mile, or some combination of that. There are guys with bolt on SS that have done 127 or more trap speed, they really are faster on the dragstrip than you want to admit.

I'm talking about a slip for the night OP was there. That is what I asked if you had. A slip from that night with those Hellcats running.
And I still don't see a stock HC trapping the same as a bolt on SS on the same track same day. The only thing I can say is that it is a combination of the stock tires, horrible DA, and inexperienced drivers. Depending on the miles on those tires they could probably be pretty much useless. And most HC owners that I know of who plan to track their car will swap out the tires as a first mod. Because running a high 12 at 113 in a $70K car with over 600 RWHP stock is depressing. Shit, my 5th Gen FBO SS with M6 trans was running 12.8-13 flat at 112-113 consistently.
