The p58D ran 11.6’s, but Dodge confirmed 10.9’s were attainable with the Hellcat in good air. This is quite possibly the worst driver I’ve ever seen at the drag strip.

That “race” looks like it was designed and run by Elon Musk himself. I know there are a lot of Musk/Tesla fanbois on this (and many sites), but so far, to me, Musk is just an effective carnival barker who separates investors from their money. The only thing he has ever produced is vaporware.

Gay. The Tesla will always be gay. But this test is especially so. Lets have equal drivers next time. A Camry could have bested that guy in the Challenger.

Also, after the race, both of them should race from Vegas to Barstow. That should be easy enough, right?

Looks like the hellcat jumped the gun (got red lighted), and then spun his tires too much.

Still, you can’t beat the instantaneous torque of an electric motor.

Here’s a Hellcat not driven by a tool. 10.48 1/4 mile.

This might be a more equitable pair of runs. A 2013 Tesla S P85 (not the newest, quicker D series) vs.a 2014 Stingray Z51:
