Who cares about dyno numbers, real world performance numbers are what really matter. The ZL1 ran a 12.2 which isn't that surprising and seems in line with other reports. But the 10.80 NHRA certified Challenger Hellcat only ran an 11.70? That's what I'm surprised about. In the eight speed AUTOMATIC no less.

Also, more importantly (to me, but not most people) the Challenger fell short on the figure eight which gives an indication of its handling ability. I'm curious as to what laps times will be for the Hellcat, as no doubt the huge horse power advantage will mask some of its short comings in the handling department.
