SpeedKore in the Spotlight Again with Fast and Furious 9 “Hellacious” Charger

For the old heads as far as iconic movie cars go, maybe it's the Highland Green Mustang from 'Bullitt' or the Kowalski piloted white Challenger from Vanishing point, but for the younger generation of muscle car enthusiasts, it's Dom's Charger from the Fast and the Furious franchise.  After taking just one look at the Charger from F9, it's hard to put into words how to describe it, but Speedkore's nickname for it may be the perfect fit; "Hellacious."  The car looks evil fast, and it has all the goodies to make it go evil fast as well. Under the hood sits a massive mid-mounted 6.2-liter supercharged Hellcat V8 engine just behind its front seats, pumping out a whopping 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque via a six-speed manual Graziano transaxle taken off of a Lamborghini Gallardo. To place the engine there, SpeedKore had to build a custom frame for the speedster, which is complemented with a brand new carbon fiber body for reduced weight, a bespoke suspension system, as well as six-piston calipers from Brembo up front and four-piston ones at the rear.
