Default RRracing Supercharged RCF vs Hellcat on 1/4mi track

Hellcat was coming on strong at top end but fell short next to the RCF running the RRracing Supercharger

Awesome, nice to see! That said, get both cars on a road course and it wouldn't be close... RCF is a much better handling car.

The rcf motor was not setup for forced induction from the factory so don't expect it to last too long with that sc.. Can't imagine the cost to rebuild or replace the rcf motor...

I do not necessarily think that the motor wont last. The motor comes with titanium valves along with forged connecting rods already. There are multiple twin turbo mustang motors out there pushing between 800-1000whp on stock motors. We are less than 600 to the wheels and pushing max 6psi of boost. I think that a motor refresh around 75-90k with new headgasket along with misc parts like waterpump etc will make this motor last a long time(atleast I hope)

That's wishful thinking of something that has yet to be tested long term but hey it's not your dollar when a rebuild comes around. . lol

That's Ok Cosmo lol. I am no stranger to engine builds. I also run a 1500whp GTR on track/street and wouldn't have Supercharged the RCF if I didn't know what I was getting into

Good question but that's the things no one knows long term as of yet. Also keep in mind the rcf suffers shifting issues bone stock..

Cosmo1, we RC-F owners will cross the bridge when we get there. Just mind your future M2 if it will hold up to your planned upgrades.

AA80E 8-speed transmission used in the RCF built by Aisin has been deemed as a very robust tranny. Obviously not proven long term on the RCF but sure feels solid to me at the torque that we are putting down.
