@@joesmith-rm7px launch control shuts off if you wait too long before launching. that would be my only criticism. if you're using launch control and you still get a smoke show, you're doing it wrong. follow instructions. when done correctly, the launch control utilizes traction control and stability control, regardless of which drive mode you're in. just grabs and goes. trying holding both gas and brake for a few seconds before releasing the brake.

Great vid as usual. But you should make an out of context racerx shirt that just says. “Sorry bout’ the sun.”

[@stevealoia]

So I don’t understand . Everyone hates the 5.7 . Your comparing a5.7 to a 392. The a 392 to a hell cat . Hellcat to the demand. Now I know a few people who’s 5.7 makes 392 owners cry . Sorry I own a Challenger RT plus I love my 5.7 . With it 6 speed .

[@leonardrice2830]

Bravo 👏! Great points! I was out recently in my 2016 challenger hellcat with 305 Indy 500s outback on wider replica rims. In Eco mode with day-to-day traffic the car actually takes off very well because the tires are not getting overpowered.🤔

[@Budweiser-jh9uj]

My 2010 Chrysler 300s 5.7 the first gen body style with a 93 octane tune and transmission tune does 5.1 0 to 60. I'm running 255/45/20 in rear. And it still spins like the scat pack.

[@cracker135]

Great comparison! This was a great vid!!!

[@nathansummerville3972]

In my 20 Sinamon Charger Scat best was 4.3 on the stock 245 Goodyears. I've since changed to 275 Michelin AS4's but have not tried to beat the previous time. Once it warms up I might.

Also. What was the DA? Temp and humidity on the runs. Couldnt have been terrible if you got a 5.2 in an RT.

The Scatpack has some beefy qualities and over superior in overall performance and aesthetics but for the $ and gratuity the RT is great.

My 19 narrow body scat (dynamic package with 275s) got best 4.3-4.4 when OEM tires were new; then slowed to best of ~4.6. With 275 Nitto NT555R in back, on street best is 3.7-3.8 & average ~4.3. Any other (drag radial) tires you recommend?

What rpm do you launch at?

[@SloBimmers]

@@aloharacing I experiment a lot but usually around 1500 max 2k.

[@anthonyloiacono952]

My best is not using launch control & instead hold brake, modulate rpm in 1.2-1.5k range & release brake. I’ve also tried manually shifting with a very quick shift from 1st to 2nd (given all that torque). Certainly a drivers car that takes time to master.

[@717WES]

I had a challenger scat pack with nothing but stalk wheels 245s and I would easily run 4.0 and my best ever was a 3.9 ran 11.27 quarter miles and would barley loose to hellcats and before anyone asks it only had a k and 𝘕 cold air intake and a full straight pipe resonator/cat/mid deleted ran extremely rich. I would run it in custom controls and put everything to track except traction I would change that to street(seemed to decrease time)Maybe could have been a factory jewel as well on top of it all but it was a joy to drive and hell of a lot of fun to destroy 5.0s daily. Now I drive a 5.7L Chrysler 300c but soon will get another scat only this time wide body hope it is as fast as my last one…. Lol prolly not.

[@gregshanor669]

Ok got a question here. ( I live in the North East & get snow in the winter etc ) As U are talking about this with these tires modifications Ur suggesting. Would changing all the tires to either 275-305 setup. Would that help with the traction control so Ur not losing control of your Challenger-Charger especially in different weather climates? Esp since U normally just mention to only change the back wheels to 305-310 ( with a spacer so Ur tires don't wear out on a certain spot so U have to change them more often) setups depending on car U have to reduce this spin & tail drifting out of control etc

[@chanceysanchez3461]

The 8 speed transmission is a factor too. The old 5 speed wouldn't have been close even on the street.

[@robsorgdrager8477]

That's not true. The five speed in the 16 and up AWD hemi pursuit works just fine to eat just about anything you'll come across on the street.

[@chanceysanchez3461]

True. But, I've owned 3 5 speeds & 1 8 speed. There is a big difference. But, like you said the pursuit vehicles are insanely fast. AWD is a major difference maker as well. My nephew in-law is a cop. He drove the pursuit ones & my 2007 Super Bee, & my 2013 Charger SRT8 392. He said its extremely close. Lol
