Hell Cat Real World Road Test
Cons:
Tires are Sticky so the constant click of every pebble on the road surface can be distracting Driving without traction control on is stupid. Anything less than a granny tap on the throttle will light the tires even at 100 MPH. At 60 you drift into the other lane... Pro's Silly fast, no -- not silly make that insane... ZL-1 has been referred to as Dr. Jeckel and Mr Hyde.. Hell cat is always Mr Hyde just in varying degrees of nasty. Brakes are massive and drag the heavy car to a stop quickly. 165 MPH feels more like 100 in this car.

Re: Hell Cat Real World Road Test
8 speed automatic with paddle shifter. Tell the touch screen you want race and then put it in manual mode and things get interesting.

Re: Hell Cat Real World Road Test

This one lasted an hour. That's what happens when you have a high performance car and a low performance driver. Traction control makes a Mario Andretti out of damn near anyone. Ask these people to feather it and they think you're making a reference to birds or something. Watch the insurance companies go nuts again just like back in the later 60s. Just sayin' -- TAZ
