With the Hellcat having been introduced back in 2015, the aftermarket side of the industry has had plenty of time to work on the thing, which means the results of such gym trips can be vicious nowadays. Of course, this poses a threat to Dodge Demon owners.
In fact, we're here to provide a sample of such a battle, one that fortunately took place at the drag strip, with the drivers deciding to keep things on the safe side and benefit from the prepped surface of the track.

The Demon that brought us here comes in factory stock and with the thing sipping race juice, it delivers 840 ponies at the crank.

As for the modded Challenger Hellcat, the Dodge still uses the stock supercharger. Nevertheless, it features a 422ci stroker kit, a custom cam setup, a built eight-speed automatic and a custom rear end, with beadlock wheels.

"What kind of power does the tuner car make?" we hear you asking. Well, according to the owner, the machine delivers around 900 horses at the wheels, which means its crank output sits at well above 1,000 hp.

Note that we're looking at the kind of quarter-mile battle that will keep you at the edge of your seat, from start to finish.

All this modded Challenger talk means we need to remind you that the Demon also gets its fair share of custom work. In fact, the wildest build we've seen to date skips the supercharger in favor of a twin-turbo build, which takes things to 1,400 hp and into the 8s arena.

P.S.: If you wish to skip straight to the racing action mentioned above, you should know this can be found at the 9:23 point of the video. Note that while the two did race on two occasions, the first battle saw the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon red-lighting, which means the battle wasn't relevant.
