While pulling out of the gas station, I noticed a white Challenger with a hood scoop coming up in the direction I was pulling out. I figured I would follow him a bit to see if it wanted to play. We got up to a light, and I noticed the hellcat emblem on the side. I figured it'd be worth a shot to see how my setup does. The light goes green, and I ease it through first. I hear him start getting on it and slam it in second. The Cobb traction control worked it's best to keep traction, and he starts pulling. I shift to third, and start pulling. 6.5k comes, and I'm even, get onto 4th and keep pulling. Top it out again, and he's behind me. I couldn't believe it. We pull up at the next light, and he rolls down his window, and says my car is a lot faster than it looks. I'm still dumbfounded that I won, and just laughed and said thanks. He probably had the black key (do people actually use those??), but a win is a win. It's nice to have finally raced someone with my big turbo.

inb4 cool story bro ?. Wish I had my GoPro, but nothing ever happens when that's in the car.

What mods do you have? I don't see signatures on mobile.. also without a video of this I find it extremely hard to believe lol
EFR 6758 pushing 26psi and an E30 blend. Port injected aux fuel. vDyno puts it north of 400whp.

And ya, sucks there's no video.

After some googling, a black fob charger hellcat puts down around 460whp and weighs 4575lb. I can see how I walked him. lol

A lot of the Hellcat guys were getting walked when I was in Indiana. They don't hook up very well on standard pavement.

That definitely could have been a factor. He seemed to hook up fine when my traction control was working its magic in second though.

Time to get a dashcam! lol
