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.
This is where the ZL1 is going to have a considerable margin over the HC unless the track has an ungodly long straight section...
