Fastest Naturally Aspirated, Street-legal Muscle car

Throwing you back in your seat is Dodge's 392 HEMI V8, delivering 485 hp and 475 lb.-ft. of torque.  The R/T Scat Pack 1320 uses a TorqueFlite 8HP70 eight-speed automatic transmission to move it down the track. The R/T Scat Pack has a 0-60 run time of 3.8 seconds and a quarter-mile time of 11.70 seconds at 115 mph.  For comparison, the base model with the 3.6-liter V6 does 0-60 around 6 seconds and the most powerful Hellcat Redeye at 717 hp and 656 lb-ft of torque does 0-60 a few tenths of a second quicker than the Scat Pack model.  The Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320 is approved to be modified to race in hotly contested NHRA Stock Eliminator and Super Stock competition.
