And ZeeBabar, we all know Dodge is the best, ever, even if it came in last place in this particular race (it was totally unfair to begin with; it was up against cars that weren't front wheel drive). Say what you will, the K car was a game-changer!
I know this is an old thread, but...

The fact that the moron driving the Hellcat was making the rear tires slippery, sitting there roasting the hell out of them right before the launch every time didn't help matters any. Not that it had a chance against REAL sports cars to begin with, but still.

Rear engine with the right amount of power + RWD = Maximum traction on launch
Front engine with the right amount of power + AWD = Maximum traction on launch
Front engine with way too much power + RWD = Getting nowhere fast on launch


Also, whenever you see a commercial from Porsche, BMW or Nissan, etc, etc (pretty much any non-American car manufacture), they're always talking about refinement, performance and handling. Every time you see a commercial about a Camaro, Hellcat or Mustang, they're always boasting about horsepower and a show of tire smoke.
