First link for me is a charger link. No references to the challenger at all. You're seeing something different?

Yeah... a Charger article is all I see under "latest news".. shown in the last image.. the only one with a 6/28 announcement date.

Bruh why not just post the link rather than posting a link and telling us to click another link?

I tried. I copied and pasted the statement directly from that link and now it is gone. WTF? I'm asking the guys on Hellcat.org what's going on.

I wasn't trying to call you a liar or anything, hope I didn't sound that way.

Maybe a publicity person messed up and pasted the wrong article lol.

I tried to post the original link as fast as I could. The link I posted had all the general info on it. To get the CHallenger statement that I copied and pasted you had to do as I directed and click the second link. However FCA pulled all info on it. So all you have is what I posted before in quotation marks. Sorry...wasn't my fault and there is nothing I could do. They must have pulled the second link first which is why I could only share the original link. And then they pulled everything.

I didn't take it that way. I was just trying to move fast as the info was coming out. So I posted the original link because there was a lot of info there. That had the stuff on the Charger. Once you got there you could click on that first link under latest news which had today's date on it to see the Challenger stuff.

Time will tell, but I'm not anticipating the GT500 as much as I am curious as to where they focus the performance of it.

I guess we have to wait and see if the 797-hp Hellcat is actually a replacement for the present Demon or is it the standard Hellcat. The ZL1-1LE is a race option for the ZL1. I don't think Ford has to meet or exceed either the performance of the track 1LE or Demon to be successful, their target is the ZL1 and Hellcat. There can always be an R model or Dragpack version later.

To think that you will be able to produce Demon numbers on the strip and 1LE numbers on the track in the same car for a $65-$75k vehicle may be asking too much. Look at it this way how much work would have to be done to the ZL1-1LE to have it capable of running high 9s at the strip while maintaining its track ability? The ZR1 may struggle to meet both of these targets.

I'm wondering what they did to pick up the extra 10 HP or if they just "found it" when "running the engine for SAE certification" this year.

[FastCarFanBoy]

a 10hp bump for the base HC? It's been out for what 4yrs now?

It will be the Redeye edition Hellcat and only on the Challengers. The standard Challenger Hellcat will have 717 and the Charger will remain as it is.
