Another C7 Z06 loss - stock 2015 Challenger Hellcat versus stock 2015 Corvette C7 Z06 from a roll
Prepare yourselves for a fanboy #$% storm. If you thought the reaction to the Gen V Viper versus C7 Z06 video was strong we can only imagine what is in store for this one. The Z06 and Hellcat you see in the video both participated in a private drag day and the C7 Z06 finally broke into the 10's.
The Hellcat elapsed time did not impress and it clearly struggled to hook up. So what happens when you run from a roll and remove the traction issue from the equation? What you see here which is the Hellcat pulling away and showing off its massive power.
The Hellcat makes more power than the C7 Z06 with 642 wheel horsepower compared to the LT4 587 wheel horsepower. Interestingly, the LT4 makes more torque with 617 lb-ft at the wheels compared to 573 lb-ft at the wheels for the Hellcat.
The Z06 is a manual so that certainly is a factor as the Hellcat appears to be an automatic. The 8L90 C7 Z06 should make this an even race and maybe even edge the Hellcat out.
A very interesting development though considering the roughly 1000 pounds lighter C7 Z06 can not pull away from the Challenger on the highway. Yes, we know the roadcourse is a different story.
