Default Hellcat leaving Cars & Coffee goes Horribly Wrong

Happened on Sun. in Loveland, CO leaving a C & C event. Everyone was OK, It was chilly, in the 40's when this happened, cold tires and cold streets, trying to impress and he did not.

Really makes no sense to put all that horsepower into just a RWD car. Should have AWD.

Good roof strength on that truck. Good thing since it loves to roll over.

If you do, make sure you don't park your car anywhere near the exit.

especially knowing what i know now about insurance, depending on how much had to be paid out his rates could significantly increase just from that guy hitting him... which is kinda BS to me but that's how things work
