This thread is 52 pages long and is one of several threads all discussing both cars in great detail. We've discussed every aspect a few times. Most of us commenting on here have also followed all the other threads and this one from the beginning. We'll get to other stuff again when we get to it. Of course you can go thru and search for info or go thru the other threads or start your own thread or post up something to change the conversation if you want. So I'm not sure what you're getting at...

I am against it when you're trying to say you ran this or that time or when you're lying to mislead people into thinking something false or when a person is trying to make themself or their car look better than what it really is.

That guy has (Or had) two ZL1s. I believe the 2017 one he is claiming beat a Demon in a roll race. I've seen several videos claming to beat Demons in roll races.

He has a YT video where he claimed he was making 630 RWHP with just a tune and a cai. And he raced a Demon and walked it. Then he made a second video claiming that some other guy with a Demon saw his first video and wanted to race him. So in that video he walked the second Demon. We discussed this at length on one of the threads in the ZL1 subforum. I called him on his bullshit. And I got into an argument with him on one of the FB pages. He either lied about how much HP and mods he has or the race was staged.

I find it a bit sketchy that this dude keeps finding people with Demons who are willing to street race him. Yet in all the time that the Hellcat has been around he has never once raced one of them.

fair enough, If a guy omits he has performance boosting mods like headers, race gas then i'm right there with you , but the bitching about things like adjusting stock tire air pressure or changing things that dont make a car any faster in and of themselves like axle shafts and oil pump gears I have to laugh at. the car would run just as fast without those mods.

He did beat a Demon in a roll race on the highway. The Demon had all the seats, no skinnies, an no high-octane tune. The Demon isn't that fast from a roll, especially from high speed rolls. That that ZL1, with a 10-speed, weight advantage and drag radials, is fast. It wasn't staged. From a dig, it'd be a close race with victory going to the Demon.

He did race a hellcat, and I think he won(it was almost a year ago). The Demon that he "found" was actually brought to P.A. because its owner was taking delivery of a ZR1 at Whitmoyer and wanted to drop off the Demon for a paint protection wrap at Inshane Designs. While he was in P.A., he figured that it wouldn't hurt to do a little comparison between the Demon, ZL1, and others. He also runs a YouTube channel called DHR Street Speed. He owns a Trackhawk, Hellcat, Viper ACR, C7 ZR1, ZL1 1LE, GT500, and more.

It's not just the Demon, the Hellcats suffer this issue too. If I had to wager a guess, I'd say it's a combination of transmission/traction issues.

Please, please, please tell me you aren't seriously believing that bit? Quote:
However, when you are modifying enough small parts, that still qualifies as heavily modified. If you replace half shafts, intake, headers, upgraded gears, tune, intake, brakes, etc... you have essentially greatly modified the standard performance of that vehicle. I'd understand if you only did a few minor things, but man, some people have swapped out so many "small" parts that the car isn't even what it was on the assembly line, much less remotely "stock".
