well...

Hellcat:

weight - 4,560 lbs
tires - 275/20 P-zeros in the back
1/4 mile - 11.2 @ 125 mph (10.8 on drags @ 126 mph)


Z06:

weight - 3,533 (manual)
tires - 335/25 sport cups in the back
1/4 mile - 11.3 @ 126 mph


Even with the huge 1,027 lbs weight advantage the Z06 has, the hellcat can take the Z06 at the strip. Of course, it's a totally different story when it's time to turn.
