    I would never get a Scat Pack if I could get a Hellcat.

    But, with the extra dosh available if I got a Scat Pack, it's twin turbos and a variety of things for the Scat Pack.

    SRT tom, I enjoyed the reading. I ask why wasn't the 1320 option mentioned... I doubt a 2021 challenger scat pack would be a match for a 1320. The 1320 was around a 9K option 'after' the R/T scat pack challenger option... From an old motor head point of view - the 1320 hauls ass.... bobbymac

    The writer was just making a point that a Scat Pack is the more practical performance car. It was not trying to convince buyers to buy the more powerful and faster Hellcat.

    Here is a quote from the article: "When comparing efficiency-to-power, the Scat Pack Challenger does seem like the more reasonable choice to make."

    A 1320 is specifically made for the drag strip. According to Dodge, an 11.7-second quarter-mile run at 115 mph is possible.
