they finally released the numbers, the Demon has 808 horsepower and 717 lb-ft of torque on 91 octane gas or 840 hp and 770 lb-ft of torque on 100-plus high-octane race fuel


Zero to 60 mph in 2.1 seconds,
Zero to 100 mph in 5.1 seconds.
Quarter mile in 9.65 seconds and 140 mph, which means most race tracks won't let it run without a rollcage.

It is not just a gutted-out drag racing special. Features can be optioned back in, such as the front passenger seat for $1, the rear seats for another $1, or 19 speakers to the base stereo system.

Once customers order, they will be in the queue and get a personalized leather-bound manual to record track runs.

At 4,250 pounds and with body flares and stronger parts, it is a wider and heavier version of the Challenger.

It has smaller brakes and hollow anti-roll bars, no carpeting and only the driver’s seat, and a basic two-speaker stereo.

The car comes with a coupon to order a personalized, serialized Demon Crate with the buyer’s name, VIN, and serial number. The crate contains narrow front runner aluminum drag wheels for the track, performance parts, tools, jacks—everything you need once you reach the track in a foam case that fits into the trunk and holds everything in place. Parts include a powertrain control module to switch to high-octane gas, a switch module with a big, round button to push to switch gas and remap the engine, an air filter, tools, and a tire pressure gauge.

It’s 50-state emissions compliant, meets all regulations, and has a three-year/36,000-mile vehicle warranty and five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. Buyers also get a full day at the Bondurant Racing School.
