They'd make 1000s LESS than their estimated 8500, wouldn't they? In fact, as built, they wouldn't run at all.

So for some SRT "engineer" to make that statement, and for YOU to swallow AND repeat it, is, well, pretty sad, sadly.

Insult? No. FACT.

"Gee, if the car didn't have a transmission-driveshaft-differential-two wheels/tires, the sum bitch'd make 700+ RWHP, by golly!! 'Course she's hard to confirm without them-there dad-gum rear tars!"

Now go back to your SRT "engineer" an tell 'im what you learned here. He oughta be IMPRESSED!
