Unless you have a very special car you might run mid 11's with a stock Hellcat on a tire that is not a DR or slick. None of them down here are doing it! And most are running upper 11's. Just a fact where we are at here!

The biggest reason the Demon can't reproduce Dodges numbers is track prep. Watch the video I posted about the secret to the Demon where Dodge has their own track prep specialist make the track so sticky for it you can hardly walk on it.
Speedy is right about DA differences between forced induction and NA cars. My track sessions at my home track prove his point perfectly. Earlier in the summer, I made several passes, learning the best way to launch my car with the stock tires. Best run was 11.52 with a 1.8 60' with a 3500 DA. Ran it again a couple weeks ago with exactly half that DA, had the same track prep as I had the exact same 1.8 60' and I only gained .1 and ran an 11.40. Had I been in a NA car, it would've been a much larger drop in time.
