King of supercharged performance upgrades John Hennessey was wondering the same thing everyone else was when Chevrolet released the 650-horespower Camaro ZL1: Could it beat the 707-horsepower Dodge Challenger Hellcat in a drag race?

Can the Camaro’s lighter weight bridge the performance gap to beat the Hellcat’s greater horsepower? We may have to wait for a rematch to know for sure which is faster, because Hennessey raced a manual transmission against an automatic, so the comparison was not perfect. 

We can’t wait for round two.
