A Challenger Hellcat with Demon features, the Hellcat Redeye is the second-fastest Dodge you can buy today. It s obviously quicker than factory supercharged offerings from Ford and Chevrolet, but is it fast enough for a Roush-prepped Stang? This four-round drag race provides the answer. 1 photo
Let s look at the numbers first. Powered by a supercharged, 6.2-liter V8, the Hellcat Redeye hits the drag strip with 797 horsepower and 707 pound-feet (959 Nm) of torque at its disposal.
Given the lack of Roush badging, this Mustang is not a Jack Roush Edition or a Stage 3 model, so it s unclear how powerful it really is. But we do know that a Roush supercharger can pump up to 775 horsepower and 670 pound-feet (908 Nm) of twist into the Mustang s V8.
