Right out of the gate, Cars.com Managing Editor Joe Bruzek ran 11.10 before swinging around, lining up again, and blam — 10.88 seconds at 126 mph. Dodge assured us and we proved it: The 2019 Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody is indeed a 10-second car.

Redeye 797hp Demon 840 plus a few other things like tires and suspension for a few differences.


that 840 number was on 100 octane. The 797 was on 93.

The red eye is essentially a full interior demon with a widebody kit, bigger wheels/tires and a whole bunch of suspension/brake upgrades. It's by far the best Chally available imho but damn near 100k for a new one. There's a lot of other options for that kind of money.....

I was answering why a Demon goes 9's with the HP difference vs the redyes. You can get a well optioned redeye way less than a 100k more like 85 even better if your a good negotiator or willing to shop around..

Yeah, for $100K, I'd rather have one of several other choices. Still, impressive numbers for a stock car.

For comparison, my Cobra with relatively minor mods hit 119 in the quarter. A simple blower swap would have put me at the 129 or better for less than half the money.

Like what? What is a better sub $100k car off the showroom floor?

For comparison my Vette trapped 124 N/A but it wasn’t a brand new, stock car with a bumper to bumper warranty... If I had the money I happily buy a Redeye.

Redeye does not come with DR's....

It doesn't have the ability to run race gas and take advantage of it either, doesn't have the demon suspension, drag modes, etc. Not very far off from the Demons on 93 octane though.

The ones on race fuel this time of year have hit 9.7's. They are getting close to the "record" set by the one with thousands of runs on it.
