60-130 Test.. Camaro SS vs. Challenger Scatpack - Here's the proof
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ต.ค. 2024
- I compare the 2018 Chevy Camaro SS to the 2019 Dodge Challenger Scatpack in an insane 60-130mph head to head test. The Challenger has the power advantage; however, the Camaro is lighter and more aerodynamic. Who do you think will come out on top?

I feel like the scatpack pulls hard at lower speed because of its shorter gearing allowing for more torque at the wheels compared to the camaro. Dodge did a good job in that respect hiding the challenger's weight. Once at higher speeds, there's no hiding the weight and aero though.
I fully agree..
Can u change the gearing on the scat to make less torque but more top end?
@@alexander_3923 a cam would make more power on the top end
That’s because the challenger is designed and tuned for 1/4 mile drag racing from a dig. It’s specifically built for drag racing.
The Camaro feels like a fighter jet when you drive it and the looks on the inside make you feel like you’re in a spaceship. So fast
Its a good looking car for sure..
Eh, I disagree. It has shit visibility and a really tight interior and not in a good way.
@@GearheadK20C4 I've driven my friends enough to know that I'd never get used to it over my Lexus ISF.
@@GearheadK20C4 I'm not shitting on the car. They're nice cars, but having to get used to the visibility doesnt suddenly make it a good thing in my book.....
@@GearheadK20C4 ya, that's really up to the individual to decide anyway. It offers alot of other great things that can offset it
I know mopar is your favorite but I’m really glad you give other cars a shot (even v6’s and I4’s!!) and you aren’t close minded. I’m a GM fanboy myself but I’m getting better at just appreciating the cars these companies are making. I think you’re also from the metroplex so shoutout to you!
Thank you RacerX!!! Always coming out with that great content!!! 💯
Much appreciated my friend

Thank you my friend
Power comes in different on all three brands. Dodge has that low end grunt as to where GM seems to have that mid band power curve and Ford on the high end of rpm range.
I have never seen so much FACTS.
So true! Thanks!
Preach bro
this
Camaros the best sports car in the class easily
These 60-130’s always interesting to watch. Great vid🙌🏽
Thank you brother
Dodge makes some great motors and they’re torque is unquestionable, I must say though I put all my faith in the Camaro, it’s always doubted but it surprises
Ofc im just a 14 year old dreaming and actually getting good grades only because I want one of these cars eventually
Don't listen to that guy get the best grades you can and work the hardest you can and you will get whatever it is you want
Yes dedication starts with applying yourself.. working hard.. and staying determined! Don’t ever let someone tell you that you can’t 🤜🔥
@@b.valdez2426 grades aren’t everything 😂 you just got want it badly enough for you to wrk your ass off
Going to have to agree with the first guy. I had terrible grades in highschool. I bought my Mustang at 24 because at age 20 i was tired of working horrible jobs, that's when i started working hard for my dreams.
dont listen to the idiots that say grades dont matter. They say that just because they had shitty grades and never took school seriously. Once you get your career going you'll be driving around in whatever you desire.
That 600lbs is a huge difference and I’m certain the Camaro has a wider tire , the Camaro in white looks really nice and the interior is impressive . Thanks for sharing Racer X . Stay safe . Cheers
For sure Mike.. on a roll the tire variable is taken out of play luckily but yes the weight is a huge factor
Factory weight was around 37-3800 vs 41-4200 last I checked. 400 lbs not 600
They need to trim off some weight on the challenger's. That will help .
Yes it certainly would
@Shaun yeah, a little weight loss is definitely, one of the most important and noticable mods you can ever do to these rides!
I would love to have a lighter challenger but on the same side i like them thick sofa seats, door panels, spacious interior etc etc. Its more comfortable
If you want somthing with less weight get a mustang or camaro
Challenger is the last of their kind
I don't think Dodge cares because people keep buying them.
Still would take my Challenger all day over a Camaro/Mustang, I just feel like the Challenger is the only real muscle car left, the Camaro/Mustangs are just sports cars now. They're both nice cars (more when you get into the higher $$$ trim levels), but compared to how aggressive the Challenger looks at every trim level just makes me smile. But the SS was the only other car I was thinking about picking up, but the Chevy dealer in my town wasn't as friendly as the Dodge dealer, so they got my money instead. :)
Can you explain how you class a car muscle or sport? I feel like the mustang and camaro are too heavy to be called sport.
@@StillElias more track focused, 69 maros and mustang are more of a muscle car compared to todays models
@@Salim_shahidy the widebody challengers are supposed to be more “track” focused does that make them sports cars? they don’t have to be big, heavy and can’t take corners to be muscle cars. it’s about the raw power and performance.
@@jcartier9yearsago403 the widebody is just like a kid that wears a cape to try to be superman but you do have a point
@@StillElias I think the fact that the challengers have retained the classic muscle look might be what he means. The cameras and the mustangs look absolutely NOTHING like the classic muscle cars do. The challenger is the only car left that has retained that classic American Muscle look. Some people, like myself value that a lot because I love old school American Muscle. Like if you offered me a 1967 Shelby GT500 I would absolutely take that over any dodge. But if you offered me anything after like 1990 I would probably throw up in my mouth a little bit. I guess in short what I am trying to say is, these new camaros and mustangs are not camaros and mustangs. They have ZERO resemblance to the legendary cars they once were.
The strength of the Scat Pack isn't roll racing; it is from a dig. Three factors point this out and they are as follows when it comes to the Scat Pack:
1.) It is heavy. 2.) It isn't aerodynamic. 3.) Because of the other 2 factors, the 6.4 liter Hemi is optimized for low end and midrange power.
I've raced quite a few Mustang GTs, Camaro SSs, and Scat Packs and I have observed the following:
1.) Of the 3, the Mustang is the laziest off the line. However, it is the best of the 3 in a roll race and will tend to trap higher in the quarter mile.
2.) The Scat Pack is the quickest off the line and more often quicker to the eighth mile than either the Camaro or the Mustang. On the big end the Mustang and Camaro have a chance to reel the Scat Pack in.
3.) The Camaro is quicker off the line than the Mustang. It isn't quite as quick off the line as the Scat Pack. The Camaro is better than the Scat Pack in a roll race. However, the Mustang will have the edge more often than not in a roll race.
When it comes to the 3 cars, it is a matter of what you prefer. If you like a car that has good low end and midrange power and has excellent throttle response, get the Scat Pack. If you like a car that winds out and produces high top end speeds, get the Mustang. The Camaro produces good low end, midrange, and top end power. However, it doesn't stand out in relation to the Mustang and Scat Pack any of the 3 aspects. The Mustang is the pony car. The Scat Pack is the muscle car. Although the Camaro is a very good car, it doesn't have a distinct identity. That's one reason why the Camaro sales trail both the Mustang and Scat Pack. However, if you're looking at the used car market, the Camaro is worth considering. It depreciates faster than the Scat Pack and Mustang. When it comes to a quarter mile race, more often than not it is a drivers' race. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the 3 cars.
All valid points my friend.. great assessment
My 2011 convertible ss kill scats you did mess 1 thing up though camaros are trailed for track use so in fact they’re great at high torque but shit at low end power UNLESS you go with an aftermarket torque converter to give yourself that RPM kick because they don’t reach good torque until 3k
Forgot to mention the camaros handling abilities. Its unmatched. Hit a corner to hard in a scat pak and u could very well kill yourself. Also that mustang is very light in the a$$. The Camaro is the better balanced and aerodynamic. And 455/455 is an even powerband specifically built to track. I drove all 3 of em. And thats what i noticed.
You forgot to mention that the Camaro smokes the other 2 on a track, stock ss or ss 1le. It is also the most consistent with power compared to the other 2
I gave strong consideration to the Camaro when I bought my Mustang. I couldn't get used to the visibility.
Fun video. There must be a lot of open space on the highways in Texas. Back in the '60s and '70s, GM had some of the best looking cars on the road. But they've lost their way! If the Camaro was as true to its namesake as the Challenger is, then they would have sold way more Camaros than they have.
Yes we have some room to play here in Texas.. depending on where you are. I will say that the camaro is a nice driving car. Both cars certainly have their merits
Great Video. I finally got a legit race time clear cut results. Thanks.
Absolutely 🤜🔥
A nice honest comparison...great work!
Thank you my friend
Please do more videos like this! P.S As an owner of a Charger ScatPack I am a HUGE fan of your content!
Thank you my friend 👍
Underrated content right here! Great video, RacerX!
Good to see you put so much effort for the content.. love your videos 👍🏽
Thank you my friend
I really do like the look of that '18 Camaro interior. I am kinda glad you didn't do the '19-'20 year model. I was wondering about the 8speed vs 8speed. It will be nice when you do get the chance to run the newer Camaro. But at the moment for someone who doesn't have expendable money like that, I am a bit more interested in the '16-'18. Thank you again for doing this so all of us will know. You rock Racer X!!! As always, Keep Smiling!
Gt or 2ss ?
@@xxsilver_gamingxx389 GT has the 10R80 10-speed I thought. I was talking about the 8L90 8-speed found in the '16-18 Camaro and the 8HP70 8-speed found in the 6.4 Challenger/Charger
ForNoRaisin Ohhh, I was talking about which one is better
@@xxsilver_gamingxx389 Both. Honestly all three (Ford, Chevy, Dodge) have points where they edge the others out. Automotive makers have designed these three pony cars in a way where there really isn't one best one to choose. It boils down to which one you prefer. I personally have an liking towards the way the Challenger feels, but that is entirely a opinion of mine and mine alone. All three of them are fantastic cars that are soo close to each other with performance that I can't ever say one is better then the others. I know that doesn't really help to answer your question, but it's a question that just has to be answered by oneself after having taken a trip in all three. I have a buddy of mine who will ONLY drive a mustang and swears that its the best. But then again, I have another buddy who will not give up their 1LE for anything. I am personally wanting a 6.4 Chally. If I can save up enough money, I'd get the Hellcat. But my heart truly wants a Demon but my wallet absolutely won't let it. At the end of the day, you have to decide which one you think is the best one.
ForNoRaisin you actually wrote a whole essay haha, you are actually very very correct it all comes down to what you like best 🤷♂️ and what like everyone says ”there is always someone faster than you” and I agree but I love all three tbh but I've always had challenger's in my heart 😈
.5 sec off ,at 600lbs more,an aerodynamically challenged. Im a proud 392 owner
Still slower
People like to compare mustangs n stuff with these monsters of cars like try putting a 392 into a stang I bet that thing will just spin rather than move dodge has the weight yea but u can’t compare to these engines
@@HiRy420 The 5.0 is also a beast on its own, it'll handle a lot more power adders. Personally, I see the mustang and maro as muscle-like sports car where the challenger lives up to the classic muscle criteria.
@@yesirsky4456 I never said it was faster lol. Camaros are 🗑 still
@@Beernutz71GBD yeah but you were making excuses, Chargers & Challengers are plain and cheap af, that’s why even has them, cause they are way cheaper than camaros
Thank you racer x much appreciate your video as usual..very good
Absolutely
Every time I watch your videos I'm in love with the Dodge Challenger Scat pack! My ultimate dream car! ☺ Thanks & God bless you!
Really nice of the dealership to let you drive the cars all the way to Mexico‼️🤣😆😂😁
Great Video‼️💯🏁🏁🏁
LOL yes I had to bring back sombreros for everyone ..
@@RacerX9 my Scatpack is so much quicker than it was when it was new.. feels like it isanyway. And if you put anything but 93 in it it’s a turd
I'd like to see one of these with the gen 1 2 and 3 coyotes against each other! just to see the improvement
Great video! The only thing I see that's wrong with these rolls is you're not entirely starting at 60, then stepping on it, but maybe the draggy makes you do the passes that way? Because I feel like these times would be a bit different, but then again I never used a draggy but I beat a Camaro by 2 cars with my exhaust only. Weight reduction helps a lot as well.
Yes the idea with these tests is to be at full throttle well before you hit 60mph. I actually tried leaving at 60 in my initial testing of the draggy a while back .. everyone kept asking why my times were so slow. You can still do the test that way but you cant compare to others since typically everyone gets a full head of steam prior to hitting 60.
Another great video! Thanks Racer X!
Thank you Jaye
I just got a dragy yesterday. Can’t wait to start playing with it.
Have u tested the HC with the same method you’re testing these cars?
Great video bro
Yes.. I’m going to make a run at it tonight
@@RacerX9 under 5 seconds!!!
@@RacerX9 so what was your time??
A friend of mine had a 2020 SS 1LE. It was an exceptional performing car. It handled almost as well as another friend's GT350R. It was a blast to shift the gears under full throttle. The Camaro seemed faster than my 392 T/A. I could not get over the claustrophobic feeling the Camaro gave me. Also, the seat was rough on my back arthritis. If you could get the rear of the seat bottom to adjust higher, it would help. My new work vehicle has the same problem. It's a 2020 Malibu and I am going to trade it for an older car in the fleet because it is murder on my back.
The camaro definitely has a different look and feel. You sit way down in the car.. takes some getting used to. The scat is definitely the more comfortable car of the two.. Mopars have those big plush seats
Ive always said. They retroed the Challenger so well. They damn near hit 1970 weight as well.
They are not light lol
@@RacerX9 hey fat kids need love too brother!!! lol
I think they went over 1970 weight
Google machine says 1970 R/T 426 hemi weighs 3800 lbs
@@samholcombe3129 it's pretty close. Especially when you compare it to the others. Granted Camaro and Mustang aren't Muscle Cars they were Pony cars in the 60s. I think the weight actually helps the Challenger/Charger with some amazing road manners. Especially on long road trips.
Good matchup and comparison between two N/A cars! I actually was real close to ordering a 6th gen ZL1....I like the way it drove, and it handles well and is a quick car! It also actually wasn’t hard to see out of like a lot of people complained about, but I think the windows made it “feel” claustrophobic. For me, it was hard to get in and out of, and the back seat and trunk opening sucked. Having owned 7 Camaros over the past 30 years, I really want to like it....but I just can’t quite get there. The 6th gen Camaro is like Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) and the Challenger is like Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson)...one you just want to look at, one you just want to touch...LOL. Both these cars really are closely matched in all around performance. I still own a 2nd and 4th gen Camaro as weekend/summer time toys, so I didn’t need another car that spends more time in the garage than driving it. IMO, the Challenger is more user friendly on a daily basis, and better looking. So it’s a win for the Challenger....
Better looking? 😂🤢
Look at the speed graph. You can clearly see where the scat shifts where as the camaro is smooth as butter. Also on the scats quickest run it was uphill. Both cars are very close. Definitely a drivers race.
it was probably in track mode, it calls for more aggressive shifts so i wouldnt expect it to be as smooth as the camaro
Camaro ss owns scat packs in every performance category lets be real.
Just keep in mind that the camaro loses in all metrics 1/8th mile and less.. to include 60ft .. So it depends on what you like
@@RacerX9 not true, your Mopar bias blinds you. You try to come off as a car guy but when the chally and charger gets out done you try to downplay it and say something that doesn't matter like "the scat is faster before the 1/8" like thats a performance feat to brag about if that was true. Equal drivers at any track any test the camaro ss will come out on top over a scat pack.
6th gen all day.
@@RacerX9 who races for less than 1/8th of a mile. 😂
Great content as always, thanks RacerX!
You bet 🤜🔥
Now I know. I traded in my 2016 challenger scat pack for a 2021 camaro ss lt1. BOTH cars are a blast to drive!
The Camaro is a beast! Its so sad to see the sales of this car drop so low. A true dying breed.
I’m 37 and work as parts manager at a Chevy dealership, I just bought a Challenger 392 wide body, why? While the camaro is a great car, it kills my back commuting to and from work. The challenger is more comfortable and has great performance with the manual.
@@stellingbanjodude 😂🤣😂🤣 nice story ( bullshitt)
For every lover there's a hater and vice versa. All these cars are bad to the bone. All destined collectible. We'll all be dead.
I know thos posted a year ago. However I actually traded a 2018 Camaro SS for my current 2020 Scat Pack Challenger. The Camaro was a manual however. It's really a hard choice. I think I favor the Challenger for a lot of reasons.
Now, not long ago I had the chance to takeba manual Scat Pack for good distance drive. Itbwas a whole different story. Because of that day, I have a widebody Shaker with the Tremec on order. Can't wait.
I have a 2015 Challenger SRT392 basically the Scats brother. And though the Camaro is nice. I’ll stick with my Mopar anytime. Been Mopar all my life owning several 60’s and 70’s Mopar muscle cars.
Nice video! More fun than the typical dig on the street where there are so many variables. I’d be interested in seeing how the Gen3 Coyote 10 speed would do. Drive to LI and you can use mine LOL!
Yes the Mustang really moves on the top end 👍
@@RacerX9 i got a 2018 GT A10 if your interested im in Dallas
I have outrun a 10sd coyote in my Scat. We only went to 100. On the street from 0 to 100 is the magic place to be good at. And driver skill always plays a part. I know the Mustang would have caught and passed me after that. The weight and lack of aerodynamics is too much to overcome in the Scat.
Dodge got to work on that top end some
They can work on top end all day but their weight is whats killing them
I've always like the Charger and Challenger ,strong cars but too heavy..
If it's too slow make it faster.
@@LiuBeiVirtue those engines are maxed out already very very little gains without major internal work, in dodges case they need less weight.
@@piccolo398 little gains are still gains, I do agree though making them less heavy would help but the car can always be made faster with the money to do so.
@@LiuBeiVirtue about all your going to get is maybe a additional 15 hp. Those motors can’t be boosted without all new internals and running NOS on stock internals is pretty dangerous. Out of the big American 3 the hemi is the worst platform to work with if you wanted to do simple stuff like tunes and bolt ons.
@@piccolo398 I mean 15 HP is 15 HP, I'll take it, I don't expect making my car faster to be cheap or easy in any way,~
This type of testing is better and safer than roll racing imo as long as it’s done same day and place, as conditions vary. Too many potential excuses with roll racing. These results seem about right. I owned a scatpack and a gen 6 ss before my Hellcat. The camaro felt faster to me via the butt dyno, especially at higher speeds.
60-130 interests me much more than 0-60 these days. My 16’ auto Hellcat challenger with tune and pulley has done a best of 7.4 60-130 in decent air. Still not fast enough for me though 😬
Wussup RacerX?💪🏼💪🏼 Tell Mrs. X that Dante' said hola!😁
I'd like to see this comparision done with a 1320 Challenger Racer X
Love my 2018 2SS. If i I hadn't bought it tho, the Challenger would have been my choice. Both great cars.
Why lol i wanna kno
Hell of a car for the money. Its a no brainer for me.
Thank u for this great comparison 🔥
Great review Racer X! Even though that Camaro is a bit faster on the high end, my choice would still be the 392. Punchy low end and a old school iron block FTW! Not only that but IMO The Challenger just looks better!
Still love the way the scatpack drives on the street.. tons of fun
@@RacerX9 Let the 392 work it's voodoo!
Great video! Seemed to me it got to 100mph fast but above that is where the Camaro really shined.
Yes I agree
Yeah it will then the scatpack grabs a second wind, well my charger does anyway, it seems to slow a bit 100 to 130 then goodbye.
@@Ecoboosttookadump Is this on a scat?
Can you do a new mustang and we can see the difference between the 3? Thanks keep up the hard work!
I will see what I can do..
Just imagine being a car salesmen and this guy walks in just to say, "Hey I wanted to make a video of some of your cars not trying to buy anything" lol
Or imagine that same guy walking in that told you he wants to use your cars to promote their dealership and its highly likely that more that 50,000 car people will see it in the first month alone.. which will actually reach more target audience than a commercial run on a local network that could cost anywhere from 15-20k .. then imagine he says he's going to do it for free! Hmmmm maybe there is a reason that more than a dozen of the local dealerships keep asking me to come review their cars.. go figure lol
@@RacerX9 badass response 👍🏻
great video. just seen your channel and had to subscribe, + anyone who enjoyed Speed Racer has to be cool ! both beautiful cars, anyone should be happy with either. thanks Racer X
Thank you Brian.. much appreciated
The hemi is designed to be more of a drag strip engine which means you gonna get a quick burst out the gates and the ls engines is vise versa , but nothing sounds better than a hemi full throttle 😩
@Michael Cass the camero does have torque, the ls and Lt engines are well balanced because they are good on the strip and good on highway pulls , mustangs use to be the king of top ends until the 10 speed started getting dropped in the cameros, stock for stock a 10 speed maro is going to give the mustang a run Forsure !!
the thing that's throwing these numbers off is the location you're doing the pulls- you're going over an underpass so the ground isn't flat, and especially on your way down from the incline it's making the cars go way faster than they normally do
I have ran a few scatpacks chargers and challengers. I haven’t lost to one yet. Before people start wanting to TUSSLE…they were all bolt on cars. I have a Rotofab CAI…2016 2SS 6Spd
My average speed around here is like 45 :-) I like a car for comfort and visibility. I always was a Camaro guy but these new ones although they look awesome as hell, they seem very difficult to back up or park one
They do take some getting used to
I have a hard time fitting in those. I'm 6'1 and 230lbs, much more comfortable in a Challenger coupe verses a camaro coupe...lol
I would think a hellcat vs zl1 camaro 60-130 would be cool. I haven't recorded my hellcat because I never think of it but I can legit do 130 before I even hit the highway on the ramp lol.
the intake manifold runner control causes a huge dip in the hp and trq once the runner goes to the short runner mode at higher rpm. If you get a solid dyno tune to help smooth that transition then you dont notice the top end loosing some power.
An SS just pulled up on me, so of course I had to check out this video when I got 🏡. 🤣Still take my boat over an SS. Thx for the video Sir.
Drag racing is boring. the Camaro is an all around better sports car not only can they do straight line but hit the corners too and look a hell of alot better doin it.
Great video, and great information
How about 0-130?
Great video man. Thumb up!
You really can't go wrong with either
Great video RacerX. What size throttle body does the Scat Pack have?
Mrs. X has a 87mm ported TB.. seems to work well
good job racer x keep the content coming
Thank you my friend
Great comparison! Now how about 130 to 180? 🤣 I did notice the Scatty put a bigger smile on your face! 💯💥💯
Great reviews. Hope you get more views and subscribers. Respect both they are very fast and very good looking too. Long live American muscle. All brands....any brand is better than japanese cars. Like the yaris or Prius or smart car or tesla.🤮🤮🤮
Makes me feel great about my stock ATSV was low 10s now is running a 6.81 from 60-130 with tune , downpipes and e85
Your ATS-V would trap 135 in the 1/4 mile with just tune downpipes and e85?... I call bullshit
@@techmaster777 more around 137-138 I’ve posted my runs on the draggy app just got a 6.36 last night 60-130 😁 world record holder for the V
Kinda makes me wonder about the different levels to compare, like maybe a Scatpack is a notch below the SS so it's not fair, but a Hellcat would be a notch above the SS so that wouldnt be fair either.
great video racerX💯
Controlling the RPMs with paddles/ would make a difference with both cars on how fast the times could come out
The best results were came from firmly rolling in at 25mph and having it all the way down at 50.. stabbing it in 2nd was slower.. leaving from a dig was slower.. RPM was not a big factor as long as you were at full throttle by 45mph. Manually shifting the cars also proved to be slower and less consistent
Good Vid! I own a 2020 Ss and I will tell you that on a roll she pulls best by putting the car in paddle shift mode and holding it paddle down and that puts the car in its most optimal gear then stabbing it then immediately throw her back in auto and she pulls like crazy.
Love your vids man
Thank you my friend
I found the same type of results when I had my ‘13 Avenger R/T. I would run it against a Cobalt SS and I would be in front until I hit 5th gear. After that he start to pull on me. Makes me wonder if the Dodge transmissions need better tuning.
Power to weight, gearing, and aero .. those are the factors
Dodge cars are geared for low-end acceleration as they are heavier. Honestly with this in mind, I'm very impressed with how well the 392 did.
Mustang Gt vs. Scatpack next?
lol we already know who'd win that.
@@deucexx733 Lol for sure. I'm more interedted to see if the Mustang can post better times than the Camaro
the challenger as well as most dodges are dangerously fast low end but their aero prevents them from doing too well up top
2021 LT1 here. 10 speed. Approx 3400 pounds. A few mods. I gapp scats with ease, and hellcats..NA
It may be the faster car but is it actually the better car? Can't see out of your pill box and parking it is guess work at best. The thing wont age well either and its a GM product... Same ppl who brought us the Avalanche so i'm sure its a real qaulity piece right?

What would be a solid respectable 60-130 time? I know anything below a 4 second 0-60 is a fast car but don’t know what a sold 60-130 time would be.
Whatever these cars do. The V8 Mustang of your time period is always the benchmark for a “fast” car.

Well whatever, I would still rather push a Dodge than drive a Chevy.
Hey Racer X, you've been to a lot of Dodge stores here in the DFW area, could you come to Dallas Dodge?
Do you know if Dallas Dodge something unique for me to review? If so .. let me know. I would be more than happy to pay a visit
Great video bro
Thanks buddy
Good runs, however I would like to see the difference between the scat and a 1SS camaro. The 2SS is slightly heavier.
I think the difference would be negligible
SMH
Yes, and a blue one, because blue paint is lighter. Don't do a black one because its heavier. LOL
What company in did the engine work on your 1000+ hp Charger and where are they located? Thanks for your help with this!
Peitz performance in Houston.. no worries
The thing is that the variables you say this test takes out are basically what we all expericence in real life - that stop light charge or turn onto an on ramp is often where things matter in the real world. Rarely are you on a highway at 60 and feel the need or desire to push to 130. The lown down grunt is important but a car has to be able to effiectively and consistently put it down.
Just picked up a 2021 Charger Scat Pack in Frostbite. Still have yet to run it against my buddy’s 2016 Camaro 2SS with a 6 speed. That car is pretty ridiculous. It would be close.
SS Life Baby!!
This was some good content should try the mustang next.
Great content Professor "C"
My SS Camaro rag top with traction control off 60 to 130 beats your 10:79 times. I went out and performed the same 3 runs at 2am with my draggy. Temperatures were cold, 42 degrees at that time in the morning. But the road was clear and safe. My average was a 10:54 with less than quarter tank of premium fuel 91 in California. Motor is all stock, except exhaust system. Has X pipe with high flow catalytic converters.
I ran the same 2018 Scat pack 0 to 60 a few days ago Racer X. Your prediction is wrong, we ran 4 times, I hooked up fine, scat pack couldn't. I drove away with traction control on and smoked the scat pack everytime. Just wanted you to know. Don't mess with a 2018 SS Camaro if you don't want to get smoked Racer X' hehehe
Always great content bro
Thank you Robert
I wonder if putting the car in cruise control at 60 then stomping the gas what difference would it make
So I own both. And I have a love hate with both cars. I own the 2019 Dodge Challenger RT though not the scat pack. But yeah I have a few videos of both. I'll keep posting more. The Camaro is a 2SS and is a 2018.
I have an e85 tune on my ss manual with an msd intake and do 60-130 in 9.8 with bad DA
Dodge could extend the current Charger/Challenger platform a few more years by just replacing some of the body panels, and suspension/frame components with aluminum, and start making the engine blocks out of aluminum. They could easily shed 400-500lbs. It would improve mpg, and performance. Yes it would increase the cost per vehicle, but it would be a Hell of a lot cheaper than developing a whole new platform.
Would also make them wayyyy faster
So which one is a better for everyday drive I do t need a racing car
I own a 2018 ss camaro 8peed my friend has a challenger rt I will blow up in a race but I will admit his car feels more fast for some reason even tho it’s slower
I feel you should punch the throttle rather than roll into it. Your foot pressure can vary enough to throw off the times. My 20 Scat pulls nicely from 60 without spinning the tires. I will get a dragy to attempt to duplicate your test. Love the channel.
True. I've never broke loose at 60 in my Scat, and I've made one hell of an effort. Unless of course your tires are shot or its wet.
Believe it or not the best results were rolling in from 25 mph in 2nd.. punching it did not help
@@RacerX9 I'll have to give that method a try.
@@RacerX9 i have found that a hit from 30 and from 60 have the best results for me in roll racing. I will say I am also at altitude in CO and I run 275 drag radials on my factory wheels.
Is this run in the Scat the same car as the run in the Scat in the video with the R/T? Same mechanically? If so, is the only difference heat and time of day? 13.8 I think the Scat did in the older video is a bit different than shown here. Crazy how much difference the weather can make!
Awesome content buddy 👍
Thank you Chad..
