Not at all.

The thing is that with all the development and tech (unlike older cars) to be fast in every category and in all contests is lacking polish. As an example, my 550hp 3500lb Camaro runs the same mph as the Z06 despite having 3 or 4 handicaps that the Vette does not have, along with 100hp less.

The hellcat is a 1 trick pony using overwhelming power as a blunt force instrument, which is what it was meant to do anyway.

Guess they should have just made a Hellcat type car and called it a day.
