  1. Well Your DAD Loves dressing In Drag so He Must be a LOSER? Also the Nissanb GTR was ONLY GOOD as a Drag car...Sucks as on the track or in top speed/highway roll racing.

  2. The Tires are limited to 168mph. While by comparison the Redeye with 797hp, ON it's (Z rated Pirellis) can do 203mph. If want speed, the Older ONLY 707hp Charger can do 204.55mph or a 206mph GTS Viper.
    2
  3. It's Probably due to the weight or how much downforce it has. Spin/stepping out slows you down. As for the drag race that was due to Ford/Tremec or the bad driver.

  4. 392 has much Larger rims ( 20s ) which allows Larger brakes, 15.4 inch w/ 6 pistons up front. The Demon's had to be much smaller due to the rim size ( 18 inch ) So it has only 13.8 Inch front rotors W/ 4 Piston Calipers. The Demon Actually Stops Shortest 97ft 70 - 0 mph of any Challenger ( due to the sticky Drag Radials ), But only 2 - 3 times Before massive Brake Fade.

  5. That 15.7L / 100Km or ( 15 US mpg) Fuel Economy isn't that bad... especially for how you drive it and the HP & Weight. I have seen Far LESS on cars with 200 Less HP. It's ALOT better than what the instrument cluster was showing on the New GT500 (39 less hp) video I saw... which showed 6.7 MPG or 35.1 Liters / 100 KM !!! 2:27 in to this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxac5ajP9PA&t=6s

  6. Talking price 18:35, They are much cheaper... more equal Models than a Redeye to choose from. That's just a poor choice for comparison. FYI, the Blonde must have been dropped on his head as a kid. They have the same size engine... Just Dodge makes more HP/Ltr. I agree it is stupid to compare vastly different cars. AKA, (anything German to similarly priced USA models). A Hellcat is the same price as this ZL1... But for some reason the Canadian Dodge site doesn't show a widebody version being available?

  7. ZL-1 1LE Sucks on the street....But NOt the Dodge... Probably the Best GT Cruiser and Highest Top Speed. Zl-1 1LE is the 1 TRICK Pony. Not to Mention NO Room for Riders compared to the DODGE.
    2
  8. The Base Model isn't Over-priced...and The parts ALONE, in the CF Track pack cost $18,000 Not including labor or taxes(I wanted to know so I looked up the parts). The CF Track Pack is actually a Deal. Zl-1 10spd starts @ $64,590 Gt500 DCT starts @ $72,900 and it has 110hp More. $8k for 100hp is a good deal...especially as the Shelby will hold it's Value.

  9. An AWD M5... The Redeye WILL Shit on IT 60-150+mph Especially that in North America it's Limited to ONLY 162 mph and the Redeye does 203 mph. German/Euro Spec cars don't mean ANYTHINHG on a North American Youtube page.

  10.  @powerwill8748  I think the SC on the ZL-1 is a high twist 2.3 L Eaton Roots SC. Doge uses a 2.7L high twist screw type SC made by IHI ... they've made Alot of the Factory turbos for Japanese Sportscars.

  11. The results were a Given Way before , Either race was run. The Big Dodges are Autobahn /GT car ( Demon Only With the Demon Crate Ecu and a Hellcat Widebody Wheel swap,) They are Only Quick off the Line on a Prepped track, prefferably With M/T ET street Or Hoosier DOT Slicks. Still They are the Fastest way to transport 5 adults in an American Brand, Other than CTS-V Cadillac.
    2
  12. Most likely the GT500 will be Priced between the Z06 w/Z07 pkg. and the ZR1... So its out of the Zl-1 1LEs category. People usually don't shop comparing cars that are $20k or more difference in price. Ford even said the top of the line Mustangs are being made to go after/compete with corvette...Since Ford is too Scared to make a Regular model to do so.
    2
  13.  @Luis_GonzaIez  That's true ...ZL-1 1LE Does have more downforce , which hurts Trap Speed. The stiff Track Suspension Hurts it's ET , Even with the Sticker Tires.
    2
  14.  @Luis_GonzaIez  What really would have helped was if they could have softened the suspension ALOT , to get some weight transfer for a Better Launch.
    2
  15. Not true this is one of the most evenly matched comparisons. Both... Fr.engine/ rwd / automatic sports cars Both on All-Season sports Car tires. No other 2 Sports cars are closer...Except ,Mustang VS. Camaro.
    2
  16. The Question is... WILL ANY Magazine/ Youtube channel EVER test the Base GT500, It's already getting Boring watch EVER test on the Carbon Fiber Packaged GT500. Should have a review of The Base Gt500 vs. the Redeye. Both would be on All season tires (Michelin Sport 2 ton the GT500 vs. Pzero on the Redeye).
    2
  17. The Baddest and biggest pair of balls for the american public. No NON- active aero car can beat this. FACT. If it had Huracan Perfortmonte active aero. it would run 6:50 around the RING.
    2
  18.  @WhiteGoldSynesthesia  And it's an American Brand / model ... So they are the ones to say "How" it should be pronounced... Just like the Pagani "Huayra".
    2
  19. Yes, The Torque comes in lower in the Powerband.
    2
  20. NEED to See a Redeye/Maybe a Demon vs. a 1968 Hurst Hemi Cuda (which was the Quickest car Sold in American until the Veyron) with the same tires on the Hurst Hemi? I still have an OLD Car Craft Magazine of an Original test that said the 1968 Hursat Hemi did 10.30@130mph. If I had a choice(Free of course), I would get the 1968 Hurst Hemi Cuda...Or a 1969 Hemi charger Daytona(fastest car from the 60s/70s).
    2
  21. They All, needed to be the street tire cars. No 1 will test a reg. Gt500 as it would be slower than both, Zl1 Or Redeye. Tires Need To Be The Same Type.
    2
  22. 3.7sec, The All Season Pirelli's hurt performance (No traction) , Most magazines are getting 11.3 in the Quarter Mile, I think SRT mounts DOT drag radials on it to get the 10.80 ET. Not sure if they test on street black top like Motor trend does or at an actual Drag strip...that would make a big difference along with the Weather/temp.
    1
  23. The Redeye doesn't come in a Manual....as No Tremec Trans as the Redeye engine exceeds the Torque limit of the TR6060 form the Viper.

  24. And alot don't like the look of the camaro or the sound of the New Gt500. To Each (her) own. They aren't meant to be alike or people with different tastes would have a choice, like everyone wearing the same outfit "ALL the TIME". But Performance/Ride/ Handling is a different story.
    1
  25. You need more than "Just a tune" on ANY Hatch back EVER made. Any handle held tuner wouldn't make them 3 sec quicker in the 1/4 mile as the Gt500 Stock is low 11's in stock trim. Also it would still just be a hatchback, waaah...shift.... Backfire...Backfire. Even an EVO would take intake/ bigger turbo/exhaust..probably injectors or a standalone computer. Plus it's Bigger Props, mandatory to race stock vs. stock. ANything can be made to go fast... seen 7 sec gen1 Neons go fast even with FWD.
    1
  26. Yeah it is. C6 Zr-1, C8 Z06, Dodge Viper...ALL had more Power and ALOT more Torque. 1968 Hurst hemi and ZL1/L88 Corvettes had more power TOO.
    1
  27. A Tuner Car... True Sheblys Always have been. Last Supersanke was ran slower 1/4 times than the stock 662 GT500, all the power in the world doesn't mean anything if you can't put it to the ground....Hope this one does it better.
    1
  28. Yes , but in North America, it got the same mpg (95hp less) and 32 mph slower in top speed , during C&D Testing.
    1
  29. Also not rear engine and about 1,000lbs heavier and 80k less.

  30. Now that is a Thoughtout / comperable race. Next week they will have a Hyabusa vs. a 3500 Cummins Ram dually,Lmao. 1 Race Standing 1/2 Mile. The other, Towing 20,000 Lbs.

  31. They were in the Usa, only "Wankers" say, zed L1.

  32. FYI, ALL Euro/JDM Sportscars use Automatics... in the Form of a DCT. PDK, Nissan GTR, Ferrari, Bugatti, Lambo transmissions are ALL Automatics... Regardless of what their Fan-Girls say. No Clutch pedal = automatic.
    1
  33.  @TheCdM1981 1st. I was just making a FACTUAL statement. No Need to get pissy...I wasn't calling You a Fan-Girl. FYI, I'm a retired Auto Technician, have driven plenty of manual, traditional automatics and DCT cars. Most importantly, I know what is BS/fake, that is posted online. Another Fact is that 95% of the people that buy/track manual cars...aren't that good at handling the shifting (even if THEY think they are). People Not beiing able to shift quick enough without bouncing off the rev-limiter is a big reason (other than getting to charge alot for it) why brands have switched to automatics...and YES a DCT (IS) an automatic (no clutch pedal). The multi-shift isn't the transmission, it's the transmission CPU programming...Fact. The Biggest issue with the 8 spds /10spds used by Pony cars and the C7 Z06 is Over-heating...with proper cooling that wouldn't be an issue. Chevy Ran the 10 spd Zl1 at the Ring and it worked great... The video of the run is on youtube.

  34.  @TheCdM1981  Almost Ever youtuber that comments on the videos. It's amazing the amount of bad info. spread on the internet/ Youtube comment area. Especially in amateur Youtube video races. Kids on here, Love to believe them as accurate or proof. It's the same with the whole "Hypercar name"... it's just a fancy way of saying Super expensive supercar.... just Hype. I'm still amazed at how many people believe Lambo designed the Viper V10, LOL.
    1
  35. Not the viper... Even the best corvette can't do that.
    1
  36. Yes, You can tell by the fender Flares. Redeye's can be had with out it and save $6,000.
    1
  37. Lambo is GermanGerman owned.... Engineers havehav toto work with they are given. Example, Benz owned/Designed, Chargers / Challengers BEING BUILT, Years After being Bought By FIAT.
    1
  38. Base ZL1 AUTO - $64,590 US Base Redeye would have been $72,295 US....But EVERYONE ONLY tests the Widebody (just like NO One has ever tested a NON-Z07, Z06) Widebody Redeye - $78,295... but you have 147 more HP and 57 lb-ft more. The trims / packages/ accessories are what REALLY ADD ON. I was a BMW Master Tech before I retired and had cars with $30k in options. FYI... NEVER GET A SUNROOF...about $3k<10K to fix, if there is a Problem.

  39. They aren't stopping the Camaro...that happened for a few years in the early 2000's.
    1
  40. 3??? ... What are you Smoking??? It got 15 mpg in testing as the 87hp Less powerful M5 Comp. During Car & Driver Testing.
    1
  41. It's ALL in the tires..and it was the ONLY one on ALL-SEASON tires and Not track tires.
    1
  42. Manual isn't available because Tremec or anybody else for that matter makes a manual that is rated/quarantined for the Redeye and it's Torque output.
    1
  43. You do realize the GTR is competition for a Z06 or (late) Viper. Challengers, Mustangs, Camaros are competition for the 370Z. So When they make one that is as fast as a GTR or an American Brand let me Know. FYI, The GTR (ANY MODEL) would get shit on on a Highway race. Or on a track versus a ZL1 1LE, New GT500. They are 1 Short/pump Chumps in the car world. Especially compared to their competitors like a C7 Z06 or Last Viper. In a Highway roll race they are a DOG...and Have No top Speed in USA SPec Form...which I think they use. Also the Dodge hadles 5 people...show me a GTR that does. It was GOOD <2014 when Nissan started making it slower/Heavier and ALOT more Expensive. It's a 1 trick pony from a standing start to use the AMAZING launch control, but in the real world it's NOTHING in the Sportscar world... and this video isn't even about sportscars.
    1
  44. 2019 ZL-1 1LE Only comes with a Manual and the Redeye Only comes with the Auto... So they had no choice With these 2 models. They Could have used a Reg. ZL1 with the Auto...Better Comparison anyway.
    1
  45. 1LE is a Better track car for the same Price. FORD Fk'd UP and made the Mustang a PIG... Not like a Dodge but it affects EVERYTHING.

  46.  @40calDeathPunch  Lol, Im a retired BMW Master technician / Certified Ford technician. So Other than Randy Pobst... I Know More And Driven More Fast Cars than them. I even Crew'd/Worked on a 6 Sec Top Dragster.

  47.  @40calDeathPunch  Lol, their mechanics ,"couldn't lift MY BALLS OFF THIER CHIN ,"Like I said, Randy is the only race car driver,i respect. I've Driven Hellcats, Mustang Cobra R, Every M3/M5 up to the F01. Drove and Worked on 800Hp All Motor Drag Cars, Rode In An F1 LM McLaren. I Enjoy this Channel , But if You consider them , Experts , Ur A Chump.

  48. What Z28??? Last one went out of production about 4 years ago, And it was ALOT Slower than the ZL-1 1LE on track. Zl-1 1LE Killed the Shelby GT350R, which killed the Z/28's track time. Z/28 does beat the regular Shelby Gt350 on track, but so does the SS 1LE camaro.
    1
  49. 370z is the mustang's JDM Competition, the Zr-1 and the late Viper are/were the GTRs competition.

  50. Widebody drops to 195mph, 33mph over an M5 comp.
