Usually when a muscle car does a burnout, people view the whole shenanigan as a display of power, but when this happens in a Dodge Challenger Hellcat, we can't call it that, simply because the 707-pony Mopar machine sometimes roasts its rear tires without even intending to do it.
Well, the shenanigan that takes place in the footage below isn't one of those times. Oh no. This Hellcat burnout was clearly intended to showcase the assets of the blown 6.2-liter Hemi and the whole thing was done without the slab of America even breaking a sweat.

Not only are we watching a Dodge Challenger Hellcat doing its morning exercise, but this is a Plum Crazy machine we're talking about. As many of you know, the look-at-me hue proved so popular after Dodge revived it for the 2015 model year that the automaker has decided to expand the offer.

In fact, Dodge has done even more for the 2016 Challenger Hellcat (note that the vehicle shown in the clip belongs to the 2015 model year). You can now add a pair of stripes to your muscle behemoth, with these coming in a carbon fiber finish.

With a price of $995, the stripes promise to be a popular option. For one thing, such an exterior choice will probably boost (no supercharger pun intended) your Hellcat's collectible aura over time.

To give you an idea of how the power of the Hellcat can be put to use outside the world of pavement, we'll mention the clip at the bottom of the page comes from aftermarket developer Advance One Wheels.

Does the video showcase the company's rolling goodies? Not really, but we're sure it works just fine as a marketing instrument for the wheel specialist. We're inviting you to hit the "play" button below and be the judge of that.
