The Challenger Hellcat is a pleasure to drive in my opinion. It doesn't pretend to be anything but a straight line beast and all around cruiser. With that being said it does have respectable handling specs for a 4500lb vehicle. I think it's right at 1g on the skidpad. What more can you ask of this car with that much physics working against it? Also, shouldn't the ZL1 beat a 350R? They're aroung the same weight and the ZL1 has a 120hp advantage and over 200 lb ft torque advantage.
Yep. Tim has stated many times that the HC is a straight line killer. Tim also mentioned that if you need a corner carver then the Viper has a few options for you.
