I love Dodge, I just wish they took track performance a little more serious on other cars than Viper. The Hellcat is a 700hp monster, but on the track can barely keep up with a Camaro https://fastestlaps.com/comparisons/2cerp4m72ll9

The Hellcat is not bad for what it is. The Hockenheim lap time is similar to that of the Ferrari 360 Modena's. The CTS-V is somewhat comparable to the F430. I just wish Stellantis got involved in making the Hellcat sedan a 300 instead of a Charger.

The Ferrari 360 is 25 years old; a lot of things evolved since then. The CTS-V is from Cadillac, which took track performance more seriously on this model and even more on the CT5-V Blackwing.
