Both the Dodge Challenger Hellcat and the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 were introduced for the 2015 model year. And while they're obviously not direct competitors, enthusiasts haven't stopped racing them ever since. That's the case with the adventure we have here, which sees the 'Vette and the Mopar machine go for a quick brawl.

In the Dodge corner, we have a Hellcat Widebody with the six-speed manual. Sure, the clutch doesn't bring the ideal setup for racing, but it didn't stop the driver from taking on that Z06.
And yes, this is a stock example of the muscle car, which means its supercharged 6.2-liter V8 churns out 717 hp (727 PS) and 656 lb-ft (889 Nm) of twist.
