What year is your car. I’ve got 2 more years before i buy mine and im trying to figure out if i want scatpack over hellcat. My son has a 2016 R/T 5.7 and it’s fun as hell as it is thanks for anything you can say about what you have
Robbie Frentz Mine is a 18 I will eventually get a hellcat but the scat is plenty fast. (All on streets tires 285s) 4 sec flat 0-60 8.9 0-100 1/4 mile 12.2 at 117. 1/8 at 7.9 and did well over 170 with ease. The used market you can get the best bang for buck got mine with 7.5k miles for 34k.
Johnny Kilroy Sweet thanks. I love the shaker hood. I am leaning towards the scatpack. I figure if it isn’t enough I could always procharge it. Also wondering what gear ratio is for a manual trans
Robbie Frentz Be careful pro charging the stock block the high piston rings don’t take to well to boost. And I’m not sure on the gear ratio my car is an auto
Hope you & your wife have a awesome weekend! Mmmmmmm I beg to differ! Jusssss something about that Hellcat supercharger whine! & I’ve driven both! Guesssss what I’m driving this weekend just to try out! The HERTZ KENDRICK MOTORSPORTS CAMARO SS! Also check out JMC RIDES new Charger Hellcat! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Got a 2019 widebody scatpack brand-new 6speed brother sounds like a beast from the factory especially in track mode. Much louder than the auto I'm feeling you bro 💯
You did a great job describing the Scat pack driving experience. I came from a Procharged 6.2 and I just like the more linear feeling 6.4 as a daily driver.
I'm looking at a first generation 08 Challenge with a Pro Charged 6.1. It only has 58,000 miles. They are wanting $19,000.00. It looks cherry inside and out, and a clean Carfax. Should I have concerns?
I really enjoyed every bit of this video! I have vision loss so sadly I don’t drive any more yet I am just almost as happy when I was driving and it’s all thanks to wonderful people such as yourself! Thanks for this video, I appreciate your wisdom and your sense of humor!
Claude Ratliff .. I don’t believe you will lose any torque on a Hellcat or Scatpack by deleting the cats. You will need a tune since the cat sensors need to be tuned out 👍
Honestly, I have to agree with an your points. It's the reason I went with a T/A 392 over the Hellcat. Both are beautiful and fun. But I don't track the car so the street is more important to me. And I love it
I was saying the same thing he should stand directly in front of a little scatpack let me punch it and see if it's still little when he's 50 feet in the air lol😂😂😂
Just upgraded from a SXT to the 2019 CHARGER SCAT PACK STARS & STRIPES EDITION I must say its the best decision I have ever made. I love driving this car I feel its the perfect balance for a car of this type.
I own a 2017 Mustang GT with a custom Whipple at 700 whp and my wife owns a 2019 Scat Pack Charger with the 275 wide tires from the factory and I’ll agree with you that on the street the mustang rarely sees the pedal to the metal as it feels overwhelming whereas the Scat Pack is just right to focus on the fun rather than keeping the rear tires where they belong. They both have their place and time for sure. Great video.
Thanks for the videos you do, I really loved your 0 ~ 60 tire comparisons and the fact that you own both the Hellcat and the Scat Pack, you flat tell it like it is, with zero partiality! Thank You for that!
I have a 2019 widebody scat pack best 0 to 60 4.2 best quarter mile time 12.2 on the stock 305 tires this thing is a beast on the street love your videos keep them coming
I’m sure the extra 200 HP would be great but most of the time I’m boxed in traffic or constantly run into slow vehicles and can’t stretch my legs...I’m happy w my 392...especially with my Corsa Extreme 😮😮 But I still look at buying a 🐈 one day.
Jason Holloway Night and day. Actually quieter than stock when cruising. Zero drone. Anything over 1/2 throttle and look out...WOT is ridiculous in a good way. Pops and crackles on decel especially in manual mode. Tunnels are a blast 😝 Fit and finish are excellent. Installed myself. It’s expensive yes...but worth every penny IMO
@@392Cherokee So quieter cold start I assume (my neighbors have complained) and daily driving in Eco/Sport is quieter, till you accelerate. I do like how it normally pops when letting off the accelerator. So the Pops are louder. I live in Germany, which has quite a few tunnels. I cant resist when I drive through them!!
I'm not sure if more fun is the right way to describe it but the 392 is without a doubt the better daily driver. I've put 49,800 miles on mine since buying it brand new in February 2018 and she's been a bliss both in terms of giggles delivered and economical standpoint. The hellcat is better suited for weekends or the occasional road trip because it gets expensive going through a full tank every 150 miles (let's be honest, nobody gets behind a Hemi and drives for the mileages", a set of tires starts wearing out every 15,000 miles, those expensive six piston Brembos start needing new rotors and pads. We are looking at picking up a Redeye for my dad but I will hold onto my 392 for as long as I can, she's just perfect.
I’ve only just gotten through the 500 mile break-in on my ‘21 Scat Pack so I haven’t punished it too much yet, but dang I’ve had the same grin on my face every minute I’ve driven it. Awesome sound, and fun to drive.
You forgot to mention.....there's an eco 500HP mode on the hellcat with a cute little green leaf that is displayed that I use most of the time that calms it down and therefore needs less driver power management. It pretty much makes it a scat. Bottom line...the hellcat demands a lot of skill to make the power useable...and a really good driver has no issue maximizing the 707 on the street with better than stock tires of course. I hear what you are saying though...its nice to have a car that you can mash that wont kill you....takes the thinking and stress out of it. It's just something that comes with having unaided high hp and rwd. I had an an E60 M5 and rarely felt out of control....its quite the opposite in the HC....and that makes me smile. Different strokes for different folks. Pun intended.
Who uses the black key on a hellcat? All I know is on my 2016 Hellcat red key when I choose 500HP a green leaf appears and next to it it says ECO...which is kind of comical. I also have a red key valet mode which I've never used but I think its 300HP Thats hillarious too. Either way my point was about the 500HP option.
LOVE my SRT 392! Fully loaded like a Hellcat but with a motor more friendly to daily driving. But even with 275 Nitto 420V's, I can still get sideways no problem. Especially in the rain! I have to drive it in eco mode when it rains so it starts in second gear. That being said I'm thinking about going FBO, new cam, and a tune.
Great video, super informative. You know a lot and presented it well. I'm currently shopping for a widebody, really want the Hellcat but I think the Scat Pack makes more sense for a daily driver.
Yup! I agree. Supercharged muscle cars in general are awesome. But if you aren’t tracking or drag racing them they seem like overkill for the street. As a mustang guy I think the 5.0 with a 10 speed is the percent power plant for what I want. I’d only spring for a GT500 if I was making so much money that it was an easy easy buy (and even then would keep my humble GT PP1).
I saw Texas plates and then the neighborhood I was like, “I know where that is!” Then I remembered that most areas in and around the DFW metroplex all look like that. Badass rides.
Nice points brother mang! While the 392 cars may not be the "end all/be all" in terms of all out horsepower like the Hellcats/Redeyes/Demons...but there is something to be said for the usability/accessability of the power of the 392. It makes enough power and immediate torque to be fun, entertaining and surprisingly quick, all while not trying to kill you. Plus the 392 sounds pretty damn good in its own right.👍👊
I been a Chevy man all my life walk in dodge dealer 12/23/19 just to look & ended up test driving a 2013R/T black top package with only 13500 miles on it & now I owen it & LOVE IT. It's the only reason I look forward to going to work. But I live in the midwest snow & ice all over now😭 cant wait for the summer months
Manual Hellcat is my dream and I’m getting one soon. I’ll be deleting the mid mufflers and changing the cold air intake probably a day after owning it can’t wait 🤩
He needs to pin this comment lol. 392, punched it, able to continue his conversation half way through. With the hellcat, punched it, hold on for dear life, concludes with a laugh/smiles. I'll take the hellcat too lol
I have a modded 5.7 RT charger along with my hellcat charger, and I gotta admit that it's almost a relief driving the RT every now and then. It's just a little more relaxing knowing you can punch it without taking out the neighbor's hedgerow. BUT, it's a short lived feeling - Doesn't take long for me to crave the insane and addictive power of the cat.
I have a modded RT charger to. What mods do you got? I got a tune, cai, kooks long tubes with full exhaust and a stage two comp cam. I have 426 to the wheel. I can run with the 392's now...lol.
“ fantastic little motor.. “ 🤣 Great video tho brotha. I’m a R/T owner, love my car. I am going to be getting a scatpack soon tho. I have a friend with a 2019 Daytona 392 charger and that thing is a blast to drive.
Thanks for great videos....we were able to pick up a 2019 scat with the shaker....sold the 5.7 challenger which was a 2018 with a stick.. the 6.4 is automatic as writing this we had the car 24 hours we are in the north and weather is not to good in February.. .thanks again your videos are the best....
Paul Terzi ...😂... anybody? My 2018 Mustang GT premium Roush supercharged 750HP 😈would annihilate your pathetic scat pack... hell...a base model 5.0 would teach you a lesson😂
It's about the amount of power you can get to the ground. The 392 has just the right amount of grunt to get the power down. The HC has too much for the road, you'll find you're spinning your rubber when you really want to go. After a while it can get a bit tiresome, maybe that's why the 392 tickles your fancy.
I think you're onto something. When you want to rip it you don't want to hold back. You want to go all the way, and it's annoying when your choice is hold back or spin n die Playing nice with the pedal is not savage
@@boostedhemi7118 was the scatpack not enough? And what wat ur mpg with the scat compared to the hellcat not that I'm worried but I surely don't want less then 12mpg
Just picked up a TorRed widebody 392 scatpack challenger...still breaking it in, but wow, fun fun so far..have been VERY gentle with it..but took it on a road trip to Newport Beach, and all those Ferrari boys nodding respect was nice...great driving csr..
Usable Power is the EXACT reason my I ride a 600 super sport bike instead of a liter bike. But it DEFINATELY doesn't hurt to have the extra power. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE both the Scatpack & Hellcat
Thanks for this comparison. I live in Ft Worth & just want to find a way to test drive both before I decide, it’s not easy! I love my 392 Challenger but I keep watching your gear head videos & want a move up before Dodge goes European on us!
I have the exact same scat you have. I've had a few people ask if it was yours lol. It's my daily and I don't mind taking the long way to and from work... every day....
I have a 6 speed scat pack widebody. It's a boat, but it's a super fun boat to rip through the gears in. Not the quickest car I've ever had.....but arguably one of the most fun cars. Great video! I watched a bunch of your content before picking mine up. You weren't the deciding factor, but you placated me until I could take delivery. Your content is very good.
As an owner of both (well I sold my scat) but you're right for another reason as well. I find it "frustrating" to drive my hellcat. I live in Minnesota, so you can cut over half of the year out of driving it, to pile onto that people drive so damn slow even in the left lane it's just frustrating to even drive it. Even merging onto the highway I can't get into it, my fastest 0 - 60 is in the 5s for christ sake. You maybe have spaces in traffic (that you have to create) just to get on it for about 3 seconds before some ass merges in front of you going super slow. So I find driving the car frustrating most of the time tbh. At least in the scat I could floor it here and there and hear the engine.
I purchased my 2019 skat off the show room floor in March & has been absolutely in love with her every since!lol An absolute PLEASURABLE THRILL to drive! I gotta say though now I want the charger He’ll Cat to compliment my 1st love.lol Thanks for the info.
Love my 2019 scat pack Challenger !!! And after watching your 0-60 video. I keep watching my times. And to my surprise with the stock Goodyear’s I hit a 4.7 and I love to brag to all my Hellcat friends. Lol . Thanks for the great videos and this is Don not Grace lol. She is scared of the power . Hahaha
I just recently purchased a 2022 Scat Pack wide body with the SRT 6.4l 392, I’ve yet to discover what this car can do for me😂, I’m still trying to get familiar with its power, any tips and pointers you can provide for me would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
The hellcat is an aggressive shifter you can really enjoy all the lower gears. Not really a daily driver car. Scat pack is little more fun and if you want more power you can always add the hellcat supercharger or twin turbo.
Great points man. Love your videos. I own a 2019 Charger Scatpack and I love it. Don’t quite a bit of mods to it and plan on doing cooks LT headers and cam in the near future
Traded '16 SXT for '20 Scat widebody. The SXT was nice to drive, the Scat is fun to dive. I couldn't imagine driving Scat or HC without the wider 305 tires or drag tires. Even with the wider 305 tires on our WB, the Scat will spin them at 30mph. Probably couldn't drive a HC without drag tires haha.
You can build the HELL (Pun) out of a 5.7! The door's wide open for performance mods. The 6.2 and 6.4 are already designed and built for their perspective performance and are very expensive to modify.
I have a 2015 Challenger Scat Pack with the Shaker and 6 speed. I have 45k miles on it and have just had a blast with the car since I bought it new. It really is an amazing value and perfectly set up for the street. While I haven't driven a Hellcat or even ridden in one, I've heard other people say the same thing. Out in the real world, the Hellcat makes so much power that you can only do small pulls here and there before you're going crazy over the speed limit and smoking tires. The Scat Pack's power is right in the sweet spot. It makes more than enough to smoke the tires but you can still use it and do some pulls without going totally insane. Especially if you plan on daily driving the car, I think it's the best option.
I bought a scat pack for now and love every minute of it. Gets a lot of attention being Plum Crazy. In the next few years I’ll get a widebody Redeye in Plum Crazy with Sepia interior. So excited
Had to get my Scatpack as a Challenger, because I wanted a manual, but when I finally get a Hellcat, it got to be a Charger. Plus when I get my Hellcat, I'm keeping my Challenger Scatpack too. Love your car bro
One day when im like 50 and have alot of time to go to the track a cat would make sense, but sometimes we forget that 485 hp is alot of power and its a very fun car🤣
Man I'm so happy I'm getting the shake down. My frist American Muscle car since my 89 mustang back in 2001. Razer I think you would love the Honda S200 very snappy as well but yeah not as fast of course. Challenger had no handling compared to my s2k. 👍
The dealership I went to had a Redeye for sale and I still ordered a custom SPWB because it's ridiculous to have 797 hp in daily traffic. Hell, where I live, every major highway/freeway has had major construction or bridge romodelling going for 3+ years, non stop. That 797 looking real good in dead stop traffic at 11:17 on a Wednesday . I also don't have a track or strip anywhere near where I live so when would I get to let the legs run legally? The SP is the superior daily driver in Dodge's "car" fleet. Much more so with the 305's on the wide body.
Love my scat pack. Actually own the same car you have with the shaker but in graphite. But I would much rather love to have a hellcat widebody challenger
All that money...here I am starving raising a family of 4 off of 800 a week. Yet I did everything society told me to do. High school, college, got a job. Makes you wonder how so few win and so many loose. I got a 06 hemi rt. But I got lucky bc it only cost 1100.
I actually disagree with you. I had a 2015 Scatpack Challenger and now have a 2019 Red-eye widebody and it's way more fun just tooling around. The acceleration on the red-eye is instant and the supercharger sound is intoxicating. Scat was fun but red-eye takes the cake. Just my .02. Great channel man!!!
Thank you for that I'm 66 yrs old but you have experience You can't put young people behind the wheel Your right less Hp Walk before you run Accident fixing to happen Thank you Sir 😊
Hey folks experience is everything behind the wheel if you are in that spot and most of THEM NEVER NEVER GET close Had to stop and wait for THEM where they now witch way I went That is practice Thank you God Bless and be safe
Uggg I am really wrestling with myself over these two cars. Either a fully loaded Scat Pack or a mildly equipped Hellcat. I have a Mildly equipped R/T now so going to the Hellcat wouldn't be much sacrifice besides adding gobbs of power behind the skinny pedal.
Having both a scat pack and a hellcat, I kind of get what you mean! after going from a scat pack wide body to a hellcat widebody, and managing to get a scat pack slim body as a daily as a side grade. I realize that I just enjoy ripping it in the scat pack. It makes sense if you've ever felt how fun it is to drive fast in a slow car. Not that the scat pack is a slow car, but it is a slower car that's fun to drive fast in.
I find myself taking the extra long way home just to drive and hear my challenger more!!
Haha.. I’m right there with ya 👍
I do that exact same thing 😂
Lol, I look for excuses to go out and drive my SRT 392 all the time
No excuses needed 🤜🔥🔥
Lol too funny I do the same!
Has 6.4liter engine and says, “This little engine.” Haha 😂 Lol
Compared to a 440, yeah it makes sense
They got a big ass one called the elephant hemi 1000 horse power
Gerson Posadas I wish I had it.
No, a “fantastic little motor” 🤣
Count how many times he says "little"
40 rolls in second gear will damn near break your neck if you dont anticipate the kick when you punk it I love my 392

How’s the gas? Thinking about getting the Scat Charger 17
I think a lot depends on your driving style. You can still get pretty darn good gas mileage if you stay out of the pedal 👍
RacerX, watching your channel on power adders, if I delete my cats will I loose low end toque? And would I need a tune ?

While the 392 cars may not be the "end all/be all" in terms of all out horsepower like the Hellcats/Redeyes/Demons...but there is something to be said for the usability/accessability of the power of the 392. It makes enough power and immediate torque to be fun, entertaining and surprisingly quick, all while not trying to kill you. Plus the 392 sounds pretty damn good in its own right.👍👊
Quick Brick .. fully agreed brother .. you have a sick machine 👍
Yes sir! I have a 18' 392 SRT challenger. Changed to Barton shifter and a bunch of other mods.
@@lmjames33 why do you like barton shifters, and what other mods
@@gummybear41283 They are a very well made product made in USA 🇺🇸
@@lmjames33 what other mods did you do? and why did you pick the 392 SRT Challenger? I'm trying to decide what to get
My wife and I both have scat packs. Her’s is a auto charger, and mine is a manual challenger. We love them both! So fun!
I been a Chevy man all my life walk in dodge dealer 12/23/19 just to look & ended up test driving a 2013R/T black top package with only 13500 miles on it & now I owen it & LOVE IT. It's the only reason I look forward to going to work. But I live in the midwest snow & ice all over now😭 cant wait for the summer months
Excellent points I have a 2016 Scat Pack shaker , and agree with you 100% . I love your Channel and great content is always fun to watch . Cheers
Thank you Mike.. much appreciated 👍
Manual Hellcat is my dream and I’m getting one soon. I’ll be deleting the mid mufflers and changing the cold air intake probably a day after owning it can’t wait 🤩
I hope you get it my friend
❤ Me Two
6:37 vs 3:35 tells me everything I need to know... I'll take the hellcat
He needs to pin this comment lol. 392, punched it, able to continue his conversation half way through. With the hellcat, punched it, hold on for dear life, concludes with a laugh/smiles. I'll take the hellcat too lol
🤣🤣😂 man I’m thinking wth is he really talking about? Dodge must have paid him to make this video bc scat packs piling up
Word! he damn near went cross eyed and lost all his bearings for a split second
Lmao🤣🤣😂
yeah but his is modded tf out
That hellcat garage start is awesome !!! My neighbors talk about my RT hah
I have a modded 5.7 RT charger along with my hellcat charger, and I gotta admit that it's almost a relief driving the RT every now and then. It's just a little more relaxing knowing you can punch it without taking out the neighbor's hedgerow. BUT, it's a short lived feeling - Doesn't take long for me to crave the insane and addictive power of the cat.
I have a modded RT charger to. What mods do you got?
I got a tune, cai, kooks long tubes with full exhaust and a stage two comp cam. I have 426 to the wheel. I can run with the 392's now...lol.
“ fantastic little motor.. “ 🤣
Great video tho brotha. I’m a R/T owner, love my car. I am going to be getting a scatpack soon tho. I have a friend with a 2019 Daytona 392 charger and that thing is a blast to drive.
The 392 is an awesome motor.. tons of fun to drive 👍
Thanks for great videos....we were able to pick up a 2019 scat with the shaker....sold the 5.7 challenger which was a 2018 with a stick.. the 6.4 is automatic as writing this we had the car 24 hours we are in the north and weather is not to good in February.. .thanks again your videos are the best....
Thank you Steve 👍
My 2019 Scat Pack wide body Challenger is a blast to drive and can take on any cars on the streets!!!
I believe it.. just get the right tire set up and get your tire pressure right 👍
Paul Terzi no it can’t
anonymous 2019 is when Dodge make the widebody factory. I believe it’s around a $6,000 option.
Paul Terzi ...😂... anybody? My 2018 Mustang GT premium Roush supercharged 750HP 😈would annihilate your pathetic scat pack... hell...a base model 5.0 would teach you a lesson😂
Except for a Hellcat 😂😂😂
It's about the amount of power you can get to the ground. The 392 has just the right amount of grunt to get the power down. The HC has too much for the road, you'll find you're spinning your rubber when you really want to go. After a while it can get a bit tiresome, maybe that's why the 392 tickles your fancy.
I think you're onto something. When you want to rip it you don't want to hold back. You want to go all the way, and it's annoying when your choice is hold back or spin n die
Playing nice with the pedal is not savage
Great video man.....love the sound of the scat pack when u step on it
Thank you Ivan Drago .. lol.. yes for a stock car I think it sounds great
Thanks to you Racer X I got my grandmother to watch your videos now she wants to trade in her Cadillac for a Scat Pack
I love this comment
I agree . I smile whenever I drive my scat pack! Instant power is crazy with a 75 shot added. Makes it wild!
Yes it sure does
Do you have a hellcat now?
Jets Set . Yes
@@boostedhemi7118 was the scatpack not enough? And what wat ur mpg with the scat compared to the hellcat not that I'm worried but I surely don't want less then 12mpg
@@boostedhemi7118 I get 17mpg in the Rt but I race at every red light
Just picked up a TorRed widebody 392 scatpack challenger...still breaking it in, but wow, fun fun so far..have been VERY gentle with it..but took it on a road trip to Newport Beach, and all those Ferrari boys nodding respect was nice...great driving csr..
3:34 Your face told me everything I needed to know lmao
Haha that’s my holy crap face 😂
Just came across your channel. Love the content. I just purchased a 23 widebody scat pack charger.
You just made the Scat pack R/T my dream car! Thank you very much! Love it!
I have a T/A 392 and I don’t regret it for a second, it’s amazing to drive it pumps me up every time I punch it!
Absolutely my friend
This video was sooo good, you really described the 2 cars really well, my dream car is a Charger Hellcat:)
Usable Power is the EXACT reason my I ride a 600 super sport bike instead of a liter bike. But it DEFINATELY doesn't hurt to have the extra power. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE both the Scatpack & Hellcat
I really love my 2021 Challenger R/T Scat Pack Widebody A8. A lot of smiles per mile.
Thanks for this comparison. I live in Ft Worth & just want to find a way to test drive both before I decide, it’s not easy! I love my 392 Challenger but I keep watching your gear head videos & want a move up before Dodge goes European on us!
I think you will love both.. You will just have to decide which driving experience you like better
I have the exact same scat you have. I've had a few people ask if it was yours lol. It's my daily and I don't mind taking the long way to and from work... every day....
I have a 6 speed scat pack widebody. It's a boat, but it's a super fun boat to rip through the gears in. Not the quickest car I've ever had.....but arguably one of the most fun cars. Great video! I watched a bunch of your content before picking mine up. You weren't the deciding factor, but you placated me until I could take delivery. Your content is very good.
forrysc .. thank you brother I appreciate the kind words and the support on the channel 👍
Yes sir
I absolutely love my 2018 392 RT SCATPACK!!!
As an owner of both (well I sold my scat) but you're right for another reason as well. I find it "frustrating" to drive my hellcat. I live in Minnesota, so you can cut over half of the year out of driving it, to pile onto that people drive so damn slow even in the left lane it's just frustrating to even drive it. Even merging onto the highway I can't get into it, my fastest 0 - 60 is in the 5s for christ sake. You maybe have spaces in traffic (that you have to create) just to get on it for about 3 seconds before some ass merges in front of you going super slow. So I find driving the car frustrating most of the time tbh. At least in the scat I could floor it here and there and hear the engine.
So scat is a good first car if you can afford it
I purchased my 2019 skat off the show room floor in March & has been absolutely in love with her every since!lol An absolute PLEASURABLE THRILL to drive! I gotta say though now I want the charger He’ll Cat to compliment my 1st love.lol Thanks for the info.
Absolutely Ethan 👍
Love my 2019 scat pack Challenger !!! And after watching your 0-60 video. I keep watching my times. And to my surprise with the stock Goodyear’s I hit a 4.7 and I love to brag to all my Hellcat friends. Lol . Thanks for the great videos and this is Don not Grace lol. She is scared of the power . Hahaha
Grace Hadix .. nice work Don.. it’s fun to try to better your own time 👍
I just recently purchased a 2022 Scat Pack wide body with the SRT 6.4l 392, I’ve yet to discover what this car can do for me😂, I’m still trying to get familiar with its power, any tips and pointers you can provide for me would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
The hellcat is an aggressive shifter you can really enjoy all the lower gears. Not really a daily driver car. Scat pack is little more fun and if you want more power you can always add the hellcat supercharger or twin turbo.
Yea if you wanna blow out your motor. The supercharger is made for a hellcat you can’t cut corners that’s too much for a 392 in the scat
Finally someone gave ford the proper Recognition for the 2013 shelby that set the bar for the hellcat
The 2013 Shelby set the bar
@@RacerX9 I can't lie out of the hellcat line up I think the jeep trackhawk is the best buy. No other suv like it
Calvin Williams there are others, just not American.
juke nismo.
g65 amg and tons more European suvs
I just got a 19 widebody scat & I cant believe they make a car 300 more hp. Scary
Seems crazy doesn’t it
Great points man. Love your videos. I own a 2019 Charger Scatpack and I love it. Don’t quite a bit of mods to it and plan on doing cooks LT headers and cam in the near future
CaRnAgE_4_Justin .. thanks man. Sounds like your charger is going to be a beast .. love it
This is a very good comparison of both vehicles good job👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I own a 2016 Scat slightly modified 6 speed and it is a absolute blast to drive puts a smile on my face every time i fire it up!
I still love a well sorted manual car 🤜🔥🔥
Traded '16 SXT for '20 Scat widebody. The SXT was nice to drive, the Scat is fun to dive. I couldn't imagine driving Scat or HC without the wider 305 tires or drag tires. Even with the wider 305 tires on our WB, the Scat will spin them at 30mph. Probably couldn't drive a HC without drag tires haha.
It’s not as crazy as you think it’s easy to get used to
I got a 2021 challenger in April and I love it and it’s a wide body
You can build the HELL (Pun) out of a 5.7! The door's wide open for performance mods. The 6.2 and 6.4 are already designed and built for their perspective performance and are very expensive to modify.
I have a 2015 Challenger Scat Pack with the Shaker and 6 speed. I have 45k miles on it and have just had a blast with the car since I bought it new. It really is an amazing value and perfectly set up for the street. While I haven't driven a Hellcat or even ridden in one, I've heard other people say the same thing. Out in the real world, the Hellcat makes so much power that you can only do small pulls here and there before you're going crazy over the speed limit and smoking tires. The Scat Pack's power is right in the sweet spot. It makes more than enough to smoke the tires but you can still use it and do some pulls without going totally insane. Especially if you plan on daily driving the car, I think it's the best option.
I just got a challenger wide body scat pack!!.. I love the body makes it look like the 😈.. I love it and I like how you talked about it..
Thanks RacerX! My 2019 Challenger Scatpack sure is a lot of fun to drive; I really enjoy driving it. But I do not like riding in it.!
Yes the scats are a lot of fun to drive 👍
Again another great video! One of the Best car channels on RUclips keep the really good & informative content coming I'm definitely fan!👍🏾👍🏾
Hellraiser 707 .. thank you my friend.. much appreciated
I bought a scat pack for now and love every minute of it. Gets a lot of attention being Plum Crazy. In the next few years I’ll get a widebody Redeye in Plum Crazy with Sepia interior. So excited
I hope you get that plum crazy cat 🐈
Thanks man. In the meantime I’ll enjoy my scat pack and pretend that it’s supercharged
Got the 300c coming and pretty excited to have that as a daily. Coming from a glc 43 merc so I hope it’s going to be a good bit more exciting.
Glorious exhaust sound.
Just love my 2015 Scat Pack 6 speed that 392 just sings
Reasons I prefer the Challenger
3. Has Only 2 doors, Less Passengers
2. Classic Muscle Car Styling
1. Doesn't LOOK LIKE A COP
By the way the 2019 skat pack charger top end is 189 that's not slow at all. Thanks for the saying big UPS on the skat.
Definitely not slow 👍
Had to get my Scatpack as a Challenger, because I wanted a manual, but when I finally get a Hellcat, it got to be a Charger. Plus when I get my Hellcat, I'm keeping my Challenger Scatpack too. Love your car bro
You gained a new subscriber great content
If you have to start over knowing that you have the hellcat and scatpack. If you had to reset between both cars. Which one will you get.
One day when im like 50 and have alot of time to go to the track a cat would make sense, but sometimes we forget that 485 hp is alot of power and its a very fun car🤣
Man I'm so happy I'm getting the shake down. My frist American Muscle car since my 89 mustang back in 2001. Razer I think you would love the Honda S200 very snappy as well but yeah not as fast of course. Challenger had no handling compared to my s2k. 👍
Great info dude! Thanks for sharing, and I agree. So fun to drive!!!!
1320Jay absolutely my friend
The dealership I went to had a Redeye for sale and I still ordered a custom SPWB because it's ridiculous to have 797 hp in daily traffic. Hell, where I live, every major highway/freeway has had major construction or bridge romodelling going for 3+ years, non stop. That 797 looking real good in dead stop traffic at 11:17 on a Wednesday . I also don't have a track or strip anywhere near where I live so when would I get to let the legs run legally?
The SP is the superior daily driver in Dodge's "car" fleet. Much more so with the 305's on the wide body.
Love my scat pack. Actually own the same car you have with the shaker but in graphite. But I would much rather love to have a hellcat widebody challenger
Those widebody hellcats are sick cars too 👍
Gonna upgrade to a scatpack when I’m done with my Honda Accord coupe really want one
All that money...here I am starving raising a family of 4 off of 800 a week. Yet I did everything society told me to do. High school, college, got a job. Makes you wonder how so few win and so many loose. I got a 06 hemi rt. But I got lucky bc it only cost 1100.
Straight subbed with that remote start clip....
Id daily either one..
But a Cammed 392 would be great.
I actually disagree with you. I had a 2015 Scatpack Challenger and now have a 2019 Red-eye widebody and it's way more fun just tooling around. The acceleration on the red-eye is instant and the supercharger sound is intoxicating. Scat was fun but red-eye takes the cake. Just my .02. Great channel man!!!
REDZ32TT .. can’t go wrong with the Redeye either 👍
redeye doesn't come in manual, how can it be more fun??!!
Thank you for that I'm 66 yrs old but you have experience You can't put young people behind the wheel Your right less Hp Walk before you run Accident fixing to happen Thank you Sir 😊
Hey folks experience is everything behind the wheel if you are in that spot and most of THEM NEVER NEVER GET close Had to stop and wait for THEM where they now witch way I went That is practice Thank you God Bless and be safe
first video of yours im watching, you just earned a new sub. i enjoyed this
Really enjoyed your video
I hope dodge continues to produce all the trim levels to accommodate the needs for all drivers
Uggg I am really wrestling with myself over these two cars. Either a fully loaded Scat Pack or a mildly equipped Hellcat. I have a Mildly equipped R/T now so going to the Hellcat wouldn't be much sacrifice besides adding gobbs of power behind the skinny pedal.
Your garage is goals
Having both a scat pack and a hellcat, I kind of get what you mean! after going from a scat pack wide body to a hellcat widebody, and managing to get a scat pack slim body as a daily as a side grade. I realize that I just enjoy ripping it in the scat pack. It makes sense if you've ever felt how fun it is to drive fast in a slow car. Not that the scat pack is a slow car, but it is a slower car that's fun to drive fast in.
