Good effort. You can tell this car has a LOT of power and it's a REAL struggle to stay within the available grip of the tires; it looks SO easy to overdrive, but the driver's doing a really respectable job of keeping it in a fast groove. I only got to do the Nurburgring once, in a 120 HP Suzuki Ignis on R-compounds...it was like the opposite of this. All grip and no power! _PS Bravo to FCA for really giving this car the cooling and brakes to handle track work, it's impressive._

[@mattspontiacta]

Very good driver in the Hellcat. American muscle representing 👍

[@aaronclarke7424]

Imagine if he was driving that AMG

[@SimonStrother]

All I see is an undoubtedly modified newer MY dodge thing failing to catch a Porsche with an equally skilled driver. I doubt those amgs and other Porsches that he "destroyed" were nearly as maxed out as that charger was.

I think it’s safe to say this is the fastest hellcat Nurburgring time.. cuz no one in their right mind is going to drive a hellcat like this. 😅

[@bavarianmoparworks8668]

Ha-ha! True..... very true... but I HAVE seen a few 392's & another couple of Hellcats on the Ring. Just not a whole lot of videos of them posted, sadly. Of course, it also helps when you have someone like Driver Jon at your disposal behind the wheel, lol! Thanx for watching!

[@mrmatthewpaul]

I wonder how much mercedes-benz engineering went into that car. I will say it is the slowest feeling video I have seen. So many others you see the undulations on the road in other videos, this one not so much. The guy knows the track. The really amazing part is he passed a car that was able to pass him like he was parked. I don't know how he was able to do it. Maybe it was his lucky day, I don't know but well done.

This guy needs to be a test driver for all cars ! He seems like he has an understanding of how to drive anything !!!

[@bavarianmoparworks8668]

Driver Jon is an experienced semi-pro driver & race instructor who has a ton of experience out here. He shows a bunch of us in our car club how to be better drivers & how to prepare for the Ring. THIS lap was only Driver Jon's second time behind the wheel of the Hellcat...& had his teenage son in the front seat (& me in the back). So he was still not really pushing the car, still trying to figure out what chassis setup he liked. His 3rd lap (Mustang GT lap) was much more aggressive & faster - too bad my tires were pretty much shot by then, lol! He actually turned a faster lap time in a 500hp Subaru w/4 passengers in the car, lol! if you want to see more of him, check the other 2 laps on my channel OR check out my buddy Dan Brown's channel "Track Focused" & watch him lap the field in Dan's Focus RS. Thanx for watching!

Great driver !! I’d be scared out of my mind if I lost control going that fast !! Hats off dude !!!

[@nickya181]

The guy driving is quite impressive!! However!.... the context of the cars are key! To say he is “taking out” a GT R and Porsche is a bit overzealous. I mean clearly you can see the dodge driver pushing the car full tilt. The guy in the GT R looks like he is just out for a spirited joyride on a Sunday. I’d actually love to see the dodge driver in a GT R or Porsche driving like he is now. That would be one quick lap!

[@grandfinish2364]

Nicholas Atchue: I agree with you. Even with that guys driving chops that black Porsche pulled away hard and maintained that lead until the end. Not a lot of people commenting on the Porsche that smoked that Charger. Don’t get me wrong, the charger driver was hauling ass and on full tilt. However, can’t discredit the Porsche that he couldn’t catch up to even though they hit 200mph in that thing a couple times. Nice video.

[@TickleFingers]

That GTR wasnt even trying...... At all! And that Porsche destroyed that thing. The deal with this car is that it can hang for a while, but it's just not going to last in endurance. That GTR and Porshe will run circles around that thing when the tires are pure grease and the brakes are non-existent.

[@KevinHolmesbrrr]

Exactly. I don't think it counts as a race unless everyone knows you're racing.

[@yuliya56100]

Nicholas Atchue A Hellcat in my estimation can likely do a 7:30 and gtr with a pro driver has done 7:08 to put it into perspective... Hellcats are not built for cornering... They are built for drag racing, but that was awesome driving!!

[@seanwalters1977]

Speaking of context, a 4 door family sedan made for 1/4 miles can still hold its own against cars that are at least double the price and engineered for tracks. Boring argument.

[@rodneydunnigan9291]

I'm only commenting so much because here in Detroit, They think Dodges are good only for Drag Racing and Straight Line Speed and Jon just shattered that myth wide open, Michigan does not have road courses for the public, just Manufacturers Proving Grounds Road Courses..... I think any car can drift with a experienced driver and Jon is a experienced driver, Here in the states they think Chargers and Challengers can't turn, These cars are heavy and I'm 95% sure Chrysler builds them like that for a reason. Massive HORSEPOWER !!! I watch the Vid every other day and I try to educate drivers with these cars, that some of them actually need to take Road Course Classes to really enjoy these MOPARS....... Keep up the Good Work Jon, Smiles from ear to ear !!! My Infamous Quote !!! (Dodge left NASCAR, So Dodge Brought NASCAR to the Street) Literally !!!! No more comments, I'm just gonna enjoy the vids !!!!

[@Texarmageddon]

To be fair, Mustangs for a large part of the time also received the same flack... and during that time they could still take a corner.... The issue came with racing cars in it's class with similar power. Myth is still out there... They just proved it's not completely worthless much like the mustangs of old.

[@steveort2105]

Huh? No public road courses? Waterford Hills? M1 Concourse?

[@ripsrt6822]

Texarmageddon, about 20 years ago my buddy had a 92 5.0 notch back, 373 gears and a short shifter. Car was an animal beating cars left and right on the street. Never once did he "kill a crowd" he knew how to drive. More modern mustangs had a traction control system paired with a solid rear axle that was terrible. Really aren't cars meant for kids that can't drive lol

[@Texarmageddon]

SRT_LYF well I was mainly talking about track racing... mustangs then you can mainly mask most of its handling issues with wider tires and better suspension, but eventually the LRA and chassis would show its weaknesses against cars with similar power and better suspension components .... Case in point... put a wide body hellcat against a CTSV ..
