Also remember that a 2000 model base Corvette had a top speed in excess of 170. Sure the limited production Demon was the quickest 1/4 mile production car but it handles like a dump truck on anything other than a dead straight line. I guess if your idea of a fun driving car is raising hell on a dead straight stretch of road but then pinching a hole in the seat with your ass in fear on curvy roads, the Demon would be a great car to have. lol

Just curious, have you actually driven a Demon? Obviously it is no sports car but my guess is it will go around a corner just fine.
Really no point in a car that goes 300 mph even for current forms of races, since there is no place to go that fast. Even at the fastest races, like Indy and F1 there is no place for a 300mph car.
Certainly never something that can be safely used on the public roads, obviously.
So its a bragging rights kind of thing..but hardly anything new. People have been going 300 mph in cars for 40 years.
And there’s the Dodge Demon the fastest American made production car.
Zero to 60 mph: 2.3-2.6 sec
Power: 808 or 840 hp @ 6300 rpm
Top speed: 168 mph
Displacement: 376 cu in, 6166 cc
It might be the quickest, but not the fastest. Guess they sacrificed top end for low end acceleration. Corvettes are faster, various street legal production Mustangs are faster, Dodge Hellcats are faster, etc and so forth.

The Dodge Hell cat tops out at 199 mph for the two door and just over 200 mph for the four door.
I have a feeling the new GT 500 will be able to hit 200 has well.

With a 0-60 mph time of just 2.3 seconds, the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is the fastest production car in the world, but there is a catch. You must select the single seat model and fuel your ride with 100-octane racing fuel to achieve the full 840 horsepower and 770 pound-feet of torque.
Besides being the fastest car in the world, the SRT Demon is the only production model that pops wheelies, thanks to a tremendous amount of downforce sent to the rear wheels in launch control mode, lifting the front tires by a few inches before careening down the racetrack at a neck-snap-back pace.
Just 3,300 copies of the 2018 SRT Demon are being built (3,000 for the US; 300 for Canada). If this model’s scarcity and $86,090 net price are a bit restrictive for you, there is always the 707-horsepower SRT Hellcat — costing just $66,590 with a 0-60 mph time of 3.5 seconds.
