Absolutely! The exhaust note is really nice.

Can't wait for all the comments asking why it's so slow lol. You know...all the people that don't understand elevation lol. Great vid guys.

I've got a 2021 Dodge Challenger scat pack and some days I drive around in track mode you feel like you're 16 again in that mod and yes I am a '70s child

The altitude makes so much difference. I’m only 240ft above sea level and my 2019 sxt pulled a 5.8 0-60 for best time. Those scat packs down here do mid 4 secs all day 0-60. Great video though. I plan on upgrading to a 6.4 from the sxt.

Awesome!!!

Tommy, you get to have so much fun. What a great day of work. Good review.

I live in New England and I’ve never had worse than 4.6 , 0-60, my best is 4.2 but that’s with stock everything, a better tire I can get sub 4s, I guess it’s where you are.

You're right...going with the fat-bodied Challenger is the only way to go. I've never heard of the Jailbreak, but that sounds like something you guys should get! Great vid!

Vented seats are worth it. I love the sound of the car it's not to tame but not ratty like a mustang. Best part of the car is looks, launch control, sound. Worst part of it would be adaptive cruise control (its so bad) I have a subaru and it's way better acc. Also like to add the Harmon kardon is really nice. The charger outsold the latter btw

Love these videos, I bet you guys have so much fun doing this stuff. You guys rock, the editor to, the whole team, awesome job.

Thanks for the video , great editing and so much details on the car .

The engine block itself is still painted hemi orange, it's just hard to see under those plastic coverings.

Im only 10 seconds in, but I can give you the answer. (I daily'd a HC for 5 years). From a dig, start in 2nd. Roll into it, don't slam on it. As soon as you would hit the shift point for the next gear, instead slap the stick back into auto and let the ZF handle the rest.

I'm not a Chrysler man but I have to admit they do make some nice looking cars and trucks & Dodge has always been about power. Even if the interior is "out dated" I think it still looks nice & clean. Some of the newer vehicle interiors with the big screens are just to busy, kinda intimidating. Good job Tommy, when I grow up I want a job like yours. (I'm 54 years old) LOL

Nice review, thanks!!

My narrow body stock 21 Scat will pull 4.7 all day long. Sport mode, traction off.

Great review Tommy! 👍🏻

You should test a Challenger 1320. The factory drag radials and active suspension from the Demon as well as the trans brake really makes it faster. Mine has a best of 3.6 0-60. Although I live near sea level here in Florida.

Its nice to see another data point using the Solo DL. Would like to see it compared to the Dragy. The 0-60 from the infotainment was a half second faster on average.

Refresh unnecessary, Smiles per mile in the 392, the driving experience is excellent. Plenty of streetable power! FYI, put a Dragpak on that scat and it will get you into the high 11s with good DA. Low to Mid 11s at the Dragstrip, all day long.

Thank you for not forgetting those of us who still like good old fun in a V8 car. I know electric, hybrid, and other changes are inevitable but it's draining hearing nothing but electric and hybrid news all day every day in the automotive world. I'm very fortunate that my wife actually wants a Challenger. Since it's sounding like the V8's are ending production soon we're hoping to order one next year for a fun road trip car. Just gotta make a trip to a big city to go test drive a scat pack and a regular R/T to see what she's comfortable with. I'm hoping scat pack but I don't want her getting sideways accidentally when I'm not there since she's never driven something high performance before.

Every time this channel does a 0-60 test it’s alway almost 2 seconds more than motortrend’s test, rollout or not the difference is a lot

keep it in Track mode, hold the traction control button for 5 seconds while stopped to disable ESC, then retry your launches. ESC can jack you up if you get any slip as it will destroy your launch. FWIW. at 1040' above sea level I can regularly get 4.0 (car measured) 0-60 by just foot braking to ~1400 and stomping it right when it gets traction traction. That's on 275 Michelin PS4S tires on a 2021 non-WB Scat Pack

"Mid 15s, pretty good for a naturally aspirated vehicle." I remember running that stock in a 1991 Mustang GT with 225hp. Sure it was a lighter car and much closer to sea level, but still... In any case, just for fun, that Mustang cost about $16K new in 1991.

Wide Body Challenger is one of the best looking cars of all time period. I just had a ‘23 Challenger V6 rental and I checked the cluster times. For 0-60mph it said 3.3 seconds wtf!

All the extras are worth it!

That car looks and sounds great! However, I'd personally buy a Redeye Widebody. :) I don't personally go for orange, but the accents here look great with the granite. I highly approve!

Thumbnail says “Torture Tested” probably because of the conditions since he drove it like my granny 👀🇺🇸😎

Best I can get (so far) in my 22 WB Scat is 13.6. Stock tires. For some reason I get too much spin when using launch control. It seems more controllable to power brake.

Tommy, did you launch at 2500 in track mode?

Good driving

Facing the car, raise the hood and look at the far right side. You will see a FUNCTIONAL intake tube from the right headlight to the airbox. The Scat Pack Widebody T/A uses the Mopar Performance Hood aa well that ducts cold air to an open element air filter with a rubber seal to the hood. There is also a large hole in the bottom of the airbox on Scat Pack T/A models. So: Scat Pack - functional air intake on (facing car) right headlight and under right fender. Hood scoop brings cold air OVER engine. Left headlight has a blocking plate that can be removed. A dirtier engine may be the result. Scat Pack with T/A pkg: * Functional Mopar Peeformance Hood ducted and sealed to open element air cleaner with rubber seal * Facing car, right headlight has intake tube ducted straight to Hellcat airbox * Bottom of airbox has large opening * NO air intake from right fender * Left headlight has intake blocking plate that can be removed but only ducts air OVER engine. I hope this helps. Scat Pack Widebody 392 T/A manual 6 speed with factory 3.90 rear gear is the best package overall IMHO.

The best way to launch is.. get some drag radials 😊. The best I could do in my 19 WB scat was 4.5 (spinning). I could never go full throttle under 35-40 mph, or it would spin. After adding MT ET Street SS’s, I would get consistent 3.6-3.7 0-60 on practically any street without even airing down the tires.

Higher RPM in launch control is not better. About 1600 is ideal. What you have to do to break 4.5 is put the suspension in street. Then put the transmission in track and then as far as the the other options you can pick either sport or track it really doesn’t matter. What the suspension in street does is help the back end squat when you hammer the throttle and let off the brake. If you do all these things and if you’re not in the Alpine altitude or 100+ degrees like here in Tucson you should consistently break 4.5. In the cooler months here I’ve got as low as 4.2 with warm tires. I just bought a set of Mickey Thompson ET Street SS tires in 315 and so I’m hoping on an ideal day I might get below 4. We shall see.

At New Hampshire Dragway I've seen these in the high 12's around 106 mph

Was hoping you woulda played with the "custom" setting where you can pick the trans, suspension, traction, and steering modes yourself.

This exact car with the shaker would be perfect.

I have a 2016 scat shaker with 275 drag radials and my 0 to 60 clocks at 4.5

Optioned out more for luxury than speed forsure. Challenger 1852 is the fasted 392 hemi car.

Been a fan of this car since it was introduced back in 08 with the count down timer. It's an iconic car and In my opinion best design example of the throw back muscle cars. I think a little too expensive given the aging platform the interior needs some updating but over all still holds up the colors avail inside brighten it up . Id like to see a power passenger seat at 60k ! These along with the chargers hold up well durable thus police are using them severe duty and they are fast hard to outt run a srt especially and hell cat. Years from now when attending car show these will be the my dad had one of these back in the day cars always wanted one . I don't think we're gonna be saying this about many electrics if the hold up that long and don't melt down

My dream car!

This is a nice video so thanks for what you do but doing a drag start with all the governors active is just a drive. Do it again in "Sport mode" then in "Track mode" (to compare) and see what a Dodge can really do. That is a low 12s car. ;

Have a good day everyone

Great video , but a little slip on the Hemi Orange comment . The Hemi's Never came with Orange valve covers , They were Krinkle Black * I believe you were referring to the Hemi 🍊 Engine Block and Heads . Just a friendly tip ,😎

I do not consider the Solo DL as accurate. The car's calculations are not wireless--hence more accurate.
