I still would like to know/track an apples to apples best time in the wild.

What do I mean?

Really simple....and 0% ambiguous...

a Demon 170 with ZERO mods*...including stock tires and wheels.

[*Ok, the only two mods (maybe?) is making it a 1 seater since that is an OEM factory configuration (assuming your car has more than 1 seat) and slapping on the EXACT brand of CF wheels Dodge used. No other mods though.]

Before the (100% guaranteed/predictable lol) flame starts....NO shade on any other ppls runs...have at it, ALL cool stuff!

Im just sayin id PERSONALLY like to see that config and track how close it gets to 8.91s 151mph...since THAT is what Wilder did (apparently more than once)....
I agree kinda. Not everyone sprung for the carbon so not apples to apples. The fastest 18s didn't have the stock wheel/tire setup

Congrats on the 170 Cole. That's a good looking car.
So far the OEM 170 record is Tom Taylors one seat aluminum wheel car.
It'll be fun to see what a carbon wheel car can do in OEM trim.
Thank you, I placed an order with Dodge Conceirge today for additional CF wheels. They are not available until later this year (so I am told). Going to run it with the CF wheels, 100% stock.

Interested to see how you do with it. Guess you got over the 149mph thing :)

Since you have a 2018 Demon I'm curious on your driving impressions between the two. I find my 170 drives great but my buddy sold his 2018 Demon because he said the suspension was $hit on the street.

How much do the regular front runners weigh? I like those tires instead of the ones I got on my skinnies
If you mean the aluminum "al you min ee um" wheels then wait for it......55.5 POUNDS!!! CF is only 8lbs lighter so don't expect miracles. My cheap ass Dark Star with M&H front runners weigh 38lbs in comparison.

That’s a lot. With tire I’m assuming. My front runner with tires weigh 32 a piece

Not over the speed limiter, however, all my race cars are either broken or not finished so this is nice change (hopefully).

The steering wheel is still wrapped and it has 15 miles on it. I will provide some photos when it is off the trailer and start another thread on racing STOCK (no nonsense). wrapped steering wheel.jpg

You know how that goes though. If you end up the quickest, you must be lying. LOL
I was talking to my dealer and he tried to get a 170, but couldn't. He had me in mind for it.
So I guess I won't be stirring this pot up. LOL
See you in a month or so?

Still. This might be the dumbest s#%t ever. Like a semi with "65 +3" after you drive so many "safe" miles. That level of dumb.

I'm sure it's a tire speed rating thing. Most limiters are set that way. Even still. Dodge can eat a satchel for that one.

As far as for a long period of time that would probably be correct. Car wasn't built for mile long races

Yep, I have it sitting in the garage for the hellcat, it is the unit used in the Drag Pak cars- Flaming River Rack and Pinion conversion
I put one on my 55.

Its pretty slick. And made some room for the headers.
