How to Drag Race the 840-hp Dodge Demon [Video]

0-60 in 2.8 Seconds? That’s Demon – ic!

TFL’s Roman Mica walks us through the steps necessary to turn the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT DemonĀ into a drag-racing monster. From setting up the engine, to the transmission, to the suspension, Dodge has made it as easy as pressing a few buttons on the car’s touchscreen.

So how fast does he launch this muscle car with its $1 optional Demon Crate set-up that bumps the car’s 6.2-liter V8’s horsepower to 840? Dodge claims a quarter-mile time of 9.65 seconds in perfect conditions. See how close Roman gets by watching the video.

If you’re lucky enough to have put in your order for one of the 3,300 carsĀ that Dodge is going to build and sell for $86,000, you can try it out for yourself.
