Dodge Hellcats And A Viper Battle Trash

Spare yourselves 40 minutes for this one, if you want to see three of the most surreal cars on market being thrashed like there is no tomorrow.

MotorTrend’s Roadkill is now sponsored by Dodge and in order to celebrate the event, the popular YouTube show got a pair of Hellcats and a Viper and beat the living daylights out of them. Seriously, the level of abuse contained in the video will leave you giggling if you share the same lack of mechanical empathy with these guys.

Burnouts, drag-racing, express lessons on how-to-drift and some insane hooning on a dirt track designed for motorcycles are all in there. 

If you want to see how a Viper tackles a dirt track or for how long can a Hellcat spin its tyres until they blow up, head to the video below.

Dodge Challenger SRT-8

As its name states, the highlight of Orlando-based Ultimate Auto's version of the Challenger SRT-8 is its wide aero package featuring composite body panels that make space forginormous 24-inch alloy wheels in a custom matte charcoal finish from Savini, which on the rear axle, are wrapped in equally massive Pirelli 405/25-24 tires.

Aside from the wider, vented fenders with matching side skirts, the Challenger also sports newly designed front and rear bumpers, a boot lid spoiler, a hood featuring a clear plexiglass window, new headlamps and front grille, a two-tone paint job and hidden electric door handles that pop open.

Ultimate Auto says that amongst other performance upgrades, the widebody Challenger gains a supercharger system and a Magnaflow sports exhaust system for its 6.4-liter Hemi V8, without announcing output numbers.  A high-res image gallery follows below.
