The Dodge Demon V-Maxes At Just 164mph, But It Gets There Fast
Hennessey Performance took a standard Dodge Challenger SRT Demon and ran it to its maximum speed of just 164mph, but the way it gets there is... dramatic
The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is, as we all know, monstrously fast off the line. Banned from competition for being too fast, and fast enough even to make one American motoring title call for a blanket ban. We disagreed.
But one thing that’s rarely explored is its top speed. Geared for maximum punch over the quarter-mile, it’s less than you’d think: just 164mph. That’s 5mph slower than a Honda Civic Type R…
Anyhoo, Hennessey Performance decided to test it for themselves. Watch the video to see how incredibly quickly it gets there.

Woah
The title says v-max, which i assume means to max out velocity. However, in the description, it uses the term speed. Velocity and speed are not interchangeable and now i dont understand a single thing
“Just 164”
164 miles per hour is fast enough to get someone pulled over, license taken, arrested, car impounded, or worse….
Or just a Stern talking to…

It’s not banned for being too fast, it was banned because it didn’t meet the safety regulations. A roll cage would fix that issue.

Bcoz boat yo!
It’s all relative. 164mph for an 800bhp+ car isn’t a lot!
164 wow common toy car size
Isn’t the red key the limited one? I might be getting this mixed up with the Hellcat, if I am, please correct me.
164 is plenty for the quarter mile, it’s all about the gearing
