After Burning A Ferrari, WhistlinDiesel Creates A 707 HP Dodge Challenger Hellcat Boat

Ever since Dodge launched the potent Challenger SRT Hellcat, the muscle car has been extremely popular to modify, tune, and upgrade. YouTuber WhistlinDiesel owns a Challenger Hellcat but rather than turn it into a drag-racing monster like so many other owners, he has done something much more outlandish. He has turned it into a boat…of sorts. This latest stunt comes after he burned his Ferrari F8 Tirbuto the ground in a field.
Obviously, the Challenger was never designed to be anywhere near a large body of water so the YouTuber and his team had to construct a special base that it could sit on. They then constructed a set of massive rudders that mount up to where the wheels would normally be.

The Dodge doesn’t just work as a boat but it seems to function quite well. With that being said, the brakes that would have once worked on the road obviously aren’t functional on the water, meaning the quickest way to bring it to a stop is to put it in reverse and start spinning the rudders backward. Additionally, the 707 hp 6.2-liter supercharged V8 does not receive the same amount of cooling as it would if it were driven on the road, meaning it could easily overheat.
In the second half of the video, the YouTuber decides that the rudders aren’t providing quite enough thrust. As such, he bolts on a series of wooden planks to the rudders but as soon as he hits the throttle, the pieces of wood snap off and fly up into the air.
The stunt doesn’t stop on the water as WhistlinDiesel then heads to a racetrack where he drives the Challenger while the massive steel rudders/wheels are still fitted to the rear axle. He manages to perform plenty of donuts and wears down the steel wheels, sending pieces of metal soaring through the sky.
