Nice pass
HECK JEAH!!
Great mph
amazing launch......doesnt look like there was even a hint of traction loss
and its also amazing to see what a 10.8 car looks like compared to a 13 second car.....wasnt the 1970 426 hemi a mid 13 second car?
sounded like a 1st gear launch too........all the magazines said they needed to launch in 2nd to get good times i thought...
i posted this one on the GT500 forum for the guys who keep saying 10.8 was rigged by Dodge
They love it when i talk about my HC(no they dont)

17" wheels?
I little wrinkle action on those slicks. I would hope a guy could do a little better with those wheels and tires.
Well the guy can drive slicks or not nice pass!!
Nice!

Those rear tires look several inches shorter than the fronts! I thought that much difference would cause ABS issues, but apparently not, good to know!
FYI, the pundits used second gear on street tires, which is pretty much a necessity.
Also, the right slicks (taller and fatter) would get him probably a little bit better time? IDK.
Those MPH definitely indicate a 740+ FWHP mill though.

The car ran nice and clean, but honestly the whole time I watched the video I was thinking "Damn that's a nice track"
Not sure about the 426 Hemi specifically but I know in the early '70s just breaking into the 13s at all meant you were driving a VERY fast car.
You need to do a 2nd gear launch on street tires because traction is such an issue. With drag radials I guess you can use 1st.
That bad boy is mine. When I made this run in Joliet, IL at the Route 66 Raceway I didn't realize that I was being filmed. That was my second run. They kicked me off the track. Just joined the site today.
I know!Welcome! It took you long enough! J/K
I have learned slot since I got my Hellcat in January. I can't wait to share what I have learned with you guys. And learn a lot myself.
