Just in case....I copied and pasted it below.......


FCA's decision to launch an ultra-powerful Demon comes at a time when most automakers are talking about autonomous cars and electric cars, showing that the automaker remains committed to muscle cars

A failure, the Dodge Dart will die this month


The inside story of the 707-hp Dodge Hellcat engine


The automaker did not release any images or numbers for the Demon but did release a teaser video called "Cage," and a new logo showing the head of a horned demon with fangs, a pointed chin and the word Demon in red, jagged letters.

But Kuniskis said the Demon will be more powerful than the Hellcat models, which are powered by a 6.8-liter, V-8 engine that pumps out 707 horsepower.

"This will be the next iteration," Kuniskis said cryptically. "It will be the SRT Demon. Every single week, a new video will drop leading up to New York, saying here’s whats new. And then New York. We will drop the whole car in New York."

The response to the introduction of the Hellcat in 2015 exceeded the company's expectations, forcing it to double production in 2016. Introducing a Demon version of the Challenger could have a similar impact.

The automaker produces its Dodge Charger, Challenger and Chrysler 300 sedans at its plant in Brampton, Ontario. FCA made a commitment in contract talks with the Canadiain union Unifor last year to invest $325 million to update the paint shop in Brampton but has not said when it will overhaul the platform for those vehicles.

Dodge added a Demon model to its Dodge Dart lineup in 1971. The Demon shared a body with the Plymouth Duster, according to Dodgedemon.net. The Demon featured a different grille and rear taillight assembly. It was was offered as two models, the Demon Two Door Coupe and the Demon 340 Two Door Coupe, both with V8 engines.

The logo was the word Demon in yellow with a devil and a fork in the center over the M, according to the web site.

What do you think, about 1.5" worth of dish in that wheel? and that seam for the flare looks to be different than what was hinted at in the Furious leak...

Hope it's more than what's discussed! Most of us have already made those numbers! At lease needs to have upgraded engine internals and valve train so "we" can take to the next level? I understand it's only practical for FCA to market to a consumer track level authorized by the drag racing sanctioning bodies. Just hope they left a safe .70 more ET for the rest of us.
