I will say that the Hellcat seems to have a better chance above 100 MPH even if the ZL1 got the hit. Z06s pretty much win every time over both, even with a hit dis-advantage. C6 ZR1's properly driven out-do all of them on the highway above 100. The ZL1 needed to either be lighter or have a power bump if it was to be a highway roller. It's a great triple-threat car.

The Demon is not in the class of the Z06/ZL1, in fact, it doesn't have a class. There's no "Dig only, dedicated drag car, needs a crate to run within half a second of claimed times, and is banned from drag strips" class that I'm aware of. Dodge forces us to compare the Demon to cars it's claimed to beat...That's the cars in the 9.7-10.5 range. So far, it's not living up to claims, not even close to 9.6, let alone consistent 9s.

Video appears in a 7 day youtube search. Hellcat widebody vs ZL1
