Anyone Know How to Determine if the Hellcat Made a Speed Record?

[2ndAmend]

I have been doing searches on what was the best top speed of a HC in stock configuration with Factory Authorized DC Stage 2, but have not found very much.

I am wondering how my recent 204.980 rates compared to others in unmodified config (other than DCS2).

Anyone have any ideas on how to find who has gone faster?

I expect people have, I just have not found any on line. Advice appreciated.

Thanks!

I have heard from the owner of the 211mph 2018 Demon, "Hellcamac2015" in the "other" forum. He says he only changed the front and rear tires, and used the Demon Race PCU to achieve 211. It was on a slightly longer runway. I requested his speed at 1mi and 1.5mi and waiting for the reply.

My .02

While I like/respect the question, it really is a can of worms.

There, at one point, were even arguments between sanctioning bodies about the legitimacy of timing methods between each other.

My further .02 is that about the only comparable speeds are at the same event, on the same year, even date.

Even ignoring different timing methods (trap average based on WHICH light positions - there are at least THREE variations), distance determination methods, starting tree allowances, etc etc etc

Weather (hewuge differences in DA, even morning to mid-afternoon), tail/head wind, which make also a hewuge difference in trap

If you want to compare full MPH numbers, or even comparing 205 vs 210, thats reasonable in my mind, but comparing 205.01 vs 205.99...
