It ran the 9.65 on the skinnies. 9.90 on the "street" tires and 91oct (according to OP).

One trick pony has one trick, and it does it brilliantly. I'd ride this mother ****er into battle.

Some insurance company has a partnership with Dodge for insuring the Demon.

Also, I doubt Chevy or Ford will need a response. Ford has the GT and GT350 (both of which will curbstomp the Demon outside of a drag race) and Chevy of course has the C7Z and ZL1 (again, both of which would curbstomp the Demon outside of a drag race).

The Demon will curb stomp both in cruising duties.

It will also crush all competition in being a magnet for 15-25 year old boys.

That depends on your tolerance level for cruising duties. Anyways, none of those cars are chosen for their cruising duties.

They'll probably be right though. If they have one in the new fast and furious movie it'll be unending.

no they didn't... Hennessey just modified a Camaro and there are a few participating dealers that sell it. If Chevy wanted to make a 1000hp Camaro, they don't need Hennessey to do it for them.

I suspect that the exorcist ZL1 is a waste of money. Also its not a true rival to the Demon.

I think some people underestimate the OEM's and don't understand their limitations.

I think it makes me more impressed with the Tesla though.

Because I could have the same (roughly) 0-60 time in the Tesla while eating Polly-O string cheese off a fat hooker's ***

I personally like it, not that I would buy it, but I like it.
