@@yessuhyessuh2100 Not sure if you knew this, but when you’re out and about and are stopped at a stop light and are about to race someone you’re not going to be on a drag strip. Dumbass.💀💀
Yeah they are nice my father n law is a retired Sgt. Major and he has one. He had an all red one, then he got a two toned red and black one. And now he has a white, orange, and black one.. He’s also the President of the Corvette Club Chapter in Killeen, Tx
That's true. One day I was just cruising in my Audi S5 and in oncoming traffic a c8 Corvette decided to hit it real quick and flew past me. The sound and the looks work quite different.
@@305dadecountyy has anyone ever seen a stock redeye hit this tip speed on camera? Alot of car manufacturers give their vehicles "top speed" they can never actually reach. Aerodynamics are huge when trying to reach 200 mph and the chargers have the aerodynamics of a boat.
@@DoWorkNP spinning ain’t winning lol c8 all day in the 1/4. The redeye would definitely reel it in up top. Chevy just found a way to plant all that power to the ground on launch, something that Dodge could really only do well with the trackhawk or on prepped surfaces.
"C8 engine in the rear gives it more grip. Also it's 800lbs lighter." Are we just going to ignore the fact that the C8 is ~300hp/ ~250tq less than the hellcat? Just goes to show all the power in the world means nothing if you can't get the damn thing to hook.
@@305dadecountyy my money is on the c8 from a dog but that challenger will eat it on a roll. Both cars are good at what they do. If I wanted a drag car, red-eye. If I want a track toy, c8
@@j.ballsdeep420 because people aren't very bright. If a Vette beats a Chally, it's not really impressive... a Vette seats half the people, can't carry as much, and isn't as comfortable... so it isn't as good at being an actual car, just a sports car. The Viper and the Vette should be compared, and the Challenger and the Camaro should be compared. Anything else is just for fun, doesn't mean anything.
Truth is neither of them knew what they were doing. You can tell from the sound of both engines, the jerking of the front ends and then the hesitation after starting.
Later that day the Hellcat was spotted doing donuts in the middle of an intersection with his homie hanging out the widow while a bunch of idiots cheered him on with laser pointers & cell phones in their hands.
The c8 corvette had a supercharger its a 2.3l twin-screw TripleCooled supercharger if it didnt have that the hellcat would have left the vette I like both cars im an american vehicle freak but I'm just saying the c8 corvette is infact superchargered
That's what I'm saying I could hook up my friend jetti and put 213 on the dash with it smoking both them cars. It not about money, it not about who you are, or what car you drive it's that way you have the whole motor operating in that machine.
@Dodge official I don’t lol. I drive a 400AWHP Full bolt on / tune Audi s3. 3.5 0-60 times, and low 11 second passes on a street tire. I gap trackhawks, hellcats, scatpacks like it’s breakfast.
@Dodge official s3. 2.0T 4 banger. Mopar killer. The best part is their expressions after I tell them it’s on a stock turbo 😂. The problem here is guy is I weigh 3400 pounds and you weigh a thousand more! Which is the equivalent of about 100HP alone. Pair that with the fact that I’m AWD, and shift faster then you can blink, with a full launch control system. Zero tire spin. Basically you have to pray to god you get traction and hope you make your shifts. Because the stars will have to align for you to beat me. But I’m right here in Port Saint Lucie Florida if you really wanna lose the title to your car!
Base c8: 495bhp , 3647 lbs , Power to weight = 0.14hp/lb Red eye: 797bhp, 4443lbs, Power to weight = 0.18hp/lb The mid engine engineering and aero on c8 changes the game can’t wait for the z06🙂
Also depends take into account gear ratio, trans ,and launch control Everyone hypes up dodge cause of the engine and power output but tbh that’s the only thing they got going for them from factory
@@carlcalvin1479 I have owned 2 C8's and I totally agree, that is if the Hellcat ever hooks up lol. A roll race the Hellcat walks the C8. I love the C8, it's a great car!
No it's not, the driver of the Redeye is probably a little bit scary did You the initial takeoff the Redeye was first, he Just hit the break again 👇🏽More...
@@user-cc2bv4bh7e cuz that’s a demon… and it’s built for drag. a c8 will absolutely run a redeye anyday though… and will run a demon on track. Demons were built for drag
You can see when the cat starts slipping that’s when the vette started pulling away cat needs bigger tires in the back that was to much slipping still good pulls tho
Double? C8 Z06 has 670 stock; redeye has 790 something stock. Plus like Rick said power to weight ratio plays a HUGE part in it. Typically more motor; more weight. So even if it’s not a Z06, the redeye weighs approx 1000lbs more which plays an enormous role. Still; I was honestly expecting it to be much closer than it was 🤷♂️
@Jane McCarthy literally not arguing he lost the launch but that's what happens when you put a car that can't put power down properly on normal roads from a dig
Had the Redeye win , we wouldn't be talking about power control off the line. If that is a Hellcat Redeye it does in fact have launch control . Let that sink in.
@@ReedyMod1 have you seen the launch control on one of those on normal roads? It sucks. A jailbreak will get a 4 second 0-60 on normal pavement. Chevy has ridiculously good launch control for normal roads and strips. Plus the entire video was about an off the line race, let that sink in
@@asvpchuchu7473 the c8 only has like 490 hp the hellcat has 797 hp and the c8 top speed is 194mph and the hellcat top speed is 203 mph so the hellcat definitely is on top lol
@@chasecharbonneau133 look at the number difference for what you just said lmao. C8 ain't no damn drag car it's a track performance one. Of course a hellcat gonna wipe it with a roll rather than a dig.
For those who don’t understand certain things men just have to do: •Race at a light if eyes meet •try to get all the groceries in 1 trip •say “that ain’t going anywhere” after tightening down cargo •nod at each other when hot woman walks pass •trust our instincts over gps •Tell wife “don’t worry I won’t forget” (forgets anyway) •wrestle/prank son •keep a random object forever because never know when you’ll need it •own either socks, underwear, a shirt, pants, or shoes too comfortable to replace •shake legs to loosen the boys
@@user-NofaceNocase a redeye can beat a C8 tho the driver clearly ain’t give it full gas, a ZL1 beat a C8 on the track on a drag so ain’t no reason why a Redeye can’t beat a C8
You mean the engineers that produced the fastest production car of all time? Those guys? Or the ones that produced an engine/car combo so fast that it was unbeatable and was banned from NASCAR? Those guys? Or the ones who produced the fastest car available in 1968? MOPAR engineers are unmatched, always have been.
@@TheCOWBOYRANCHER Hennessy slapped twin turbos on one . Said that it hadn’t been fine tuned yet . Break in I’m guessing?? She put 650 on the ground . I’m sure after he tweaks it it will be putting down 700+
@@omarflores6470 vette owners pay cash, hellcat owners put down $25k payments and take out a 75k loan at 14% for the rest. 1 year later the hellcat is repoed and the purchaser cant even get a pack of gum on credit. Hellcats are just as bad for the black community as crack
@@BobSmith-cb5xr hell no corvette owners don’t pay cash kid lemme tell you straight the only ones who pay cash are the old people trust me my uncle works at a dealership and seen more than 30 hellcat bought all cash from old people
@@omarflores6470 Its always a brother, a friend, a dad, a cousin's third wifes sisters uncle. Just say you're full of shit. "Old people" dont bother with Chrysler products, they know better.
You're a fuckin moron. First off the piece of shit C8 go-cart is only faster from zero to sixty because it's lighter. Dodge has the Hellcat jailbreak with 900+/HP and they may come out with a new Charger called the ghoul with a hellephant crate engine that produces 950 torque and 1k horsepower. Dodge eats chevy and ford alive along with those shit foreign cars. Learn something about cars before you make yourself look like a dipshit.
I am a Mustang driver and I have had a couple of guys try to bait me into a race. The first one was at a stop light against a challenger... That I was turning at. The second one was against a newer gen Mustang but I let him go because I knew he was going to get stopped at the next light over a hill. I timed my speed over the hill so that by the time the light turned green I literally blew by him like he was standing still, because he actually was.
I'm glad you know. Everybody else Is dumb af and don't know shit. I research all types of shit like roll races and the 60 to 130 the vett is getting whooped! I like highways races. Those 0 to 60s are weak in my opinion unless. Most randoms race during rolls
@jasonchance4943 ok they slowed down on the video and the c8 was still ahead? Maybe I'm confused but the winner is the one in front? Not saying the c8 wouldn't have been beet if they kept going but they slowed down and dodge was behind.
Exactly you wasn't there you seen one portion of a clip Im not even a dodge fan but the c8 lost bra it is what it is but your right c8 won in the clip 👍
Update, Vette secured as of 28 December 2023, found one in black with adrenaline red it’s sick, still pricy though for 2023 convertible around 88 to 92k OTD pricing
Spinning ain't winning. Doesn't matter honestly. Those pussy cats are WAY overrated. I think its funny. I have yet to see one race a NEW vet....you know....mid engine. Its apples to oranges. Moms grocery getter that gets 8-12mpg is funny to watch. Build something bad ass with your own 2 hands. Everyone forgot what racing is all about honestly. Cash will buy you anything...if you are a racer then show some #s. Take that shit to the track and find out. Prob scarred to see a tesla or a Subaru pass that pussy cat. 😂
It's not power to weight. The redeye has a better power to weight ratio. It's being mid engined that gives the corvette much better traction. For modern performance cars traction is the bottleneck.
Thats the one thing I dont get about the car community. Hellcats are heavy as hell, not even AWD and have terrible transmissions. Yet they seem obsessed with the hellcat. The car only has its engine going for it which it cant even transfer into power effectively on the road since its RWD and heavy. Id take lots of other cars over the hellcat.
@@b0ld651 the transmission is horrible? That’s one of the best transmissions for the money and can take serious torque thrown through it without even touching it. And traction in any car will be a problem on all season tires with 800hp.
@@yessuhyessuh2100 I mean a heavier car generally has more traction. Not saying you’re wrong but the main problem with hellcats is their power to weight ratio. A lot of power but it’s trying to move too much weight. The c8 is a much lighter car therefore it’ll be a lot faster off the start.
@@kxngadams424 the power to weight ratio is greater on the hellcat lol you obviously don't know how torque works if you don't have tires big enough to hold the power they will spin all day and also the gearing on hellcats is dogshit the c8 is quicker because the engine is on the rear axel so it doesn't spin its simple gravity increases friction and the surface area the vette defiantly has more weight in the rear therefor it launches better because more traction its not rocket science
@@yessuhyessuh2100 I get it. It’s more so the weight displacement. I know it’s not rocket science but it’s definitely not common knowledge to know weight displacement in different cars. Don’t try and make me seem like I’m stupid. I never said you were wrong I just gave my opinion.
@@kxngadams424 I mean I just say it's not rocket science to shit I have a good understanding of I guess it came off as an insult but that's just kinda the way I type my bad brodie lol
Not with all that spinning. Maybe they'd hit 0-60 in 4 if they warmed up drag radials, well at least the Dodge would need to do that. The C8 has the motor over the rear wheel and half the power, so probably spun half as much. @@sasso09
I own a Alfa Romeo Quad and my dad just bought the C8 stingray. The C8 was an absolute work of art when I drove it. So much that a c6 Z06 is my next vehicle.
@@B1gDevin you most be a kid . You know nothing about racing and these cars raced about a block and the vette was barly one car ahead. Look at the video. The hellcat was ahead of the vette rear bumper. And hellcat are made for upper speed not lower. Once the hellcat got to 80 mph or so then the vette would have been a distant memory as the hellcat upper power kicked on and vette power slowed down. Hellcats should not even be street racing anyway. They shouldn’t be racing unless they already already going a good speed about 50mph
Yeah, you've pretty accurately described all racing. Who's setup is best designed to deliver maximum usable power. Captain Obvious here doing God's work.
I’ve ridden in a friend of mine’s C8 twice and it is quite the car. Rides like a Cadillac and has all the power you need. It’s just a wonderful car. I am very impressed.
@@jeffreyjewell75 that's what hellcats are meant for though. Scatpacks are made more for turns while hellcats and demons are more for drag or just more straight speed overall.
This is supposed to happen. A z51 c8 does a 2.6-2.8 0-60 from a dig. The redeye would pass it on the top end. Looks like the hellcat had a decent tire setup, so traction isn't an issue here
@@eddiemartinez1418 nah thats invalid bcuz the charger and challengers are not competitors with the corvette so they dont have to make them lighter, each car competes in its on segment. So your right if you line em up no excuses if you lose, we know the vette is lighter, but with that said its not competition for the vette its a beast in its on right and im not a fan of niether , just race and no excuses
Vette is a true sport car, red eye is a muscle car, different classes. I will say though as a C6 Z06 owner I get a lot of respect from my Fords and Mopar heavyweights, i also give them respect, Vettes don’t have to prove anything. They will always be admired and appreciated.
