You will have fun with this car, but you're better off going to road courses then Atco/Englishtown/insert drag strip with it, that's where it really belongs. I haven't PDI'd one since last year,but they really sorted them out well, just make sure not to make it a garage queen, get some rubbery bits all over it, and don't leave the brake ducts on all the time.
This was the exact reason I went with the adrenaline red interior since it breaks up the standard black/gray standard setup. The leather in the Hellcat felt more plush but this feels more durable which is good. One feature I like is the separate passenger temp and seat controls (heat/vent) since my wife won't need to mess with the center stack. I already have plans to get this car to a few road courses but it will see the drag strip and a half mile/mile event this year if time allows. It will be washed, waxed and garage kept but I assure you the warranty will be challenged.
