VEGAS REDEYE
Tire smoke rolls off the Mickey Thompson ET Street R radials on Brian Felter’s supercharged ‘19
Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye at the West Coast Hot Rod Association’s “The Battle,” where
he ultimately claimed a runner-up finish in the Millennial Muscle vs. Carros Deportivos (Sport
Compacts) class. Aside from a few minor upgrades, the car is mostly as stock as it was when the
Utah-based driver took delivery of it from his local Dodge dealership over the winter. Felter’s best
eighth-mile pass so far is a 6.30 at 109.67 mph. He believes the car will dip well into the 9-second
range in the quarter mile, though the track limits performances to 10.00 for cars without a roll cage.
