Cristy Lee is back in the garage — and she’s not alone. She’s teaming up with Direct Connection and seasoned performance expert Kevin Wesley to make her Challenger SRT® Hellcat the ultimate road course sweeper.
This new original video series gives enthusiasts an inside look as Cristy and Kevin dive deep into the Direct Connection performance catalog. From stage kits to suspension and brake upgrades, the duo explores what it takes to transform a modern muscle car into a purpose-built track day car…and they’re not holding back.
Watch the official trailer below and get your first taste of the chaos to come.
What to Expect in the Series
This isn’t your average bolt-on install. Cristy’s turning wrenches, getting hands-on and asking the right questions along the way — making this series a must-watch for both new builders and seasoned veterans. Kevin Wesley brings the technical heat with proven insights, while Cristy brings curiosity, passion, and that unmistakable drive to go faster.
Together, they’ll walk you through:
- Changing the ¼ mile set-up into a track weapon to run 20-minute road course sessions
- Upgrading the brakes to improve drivability and corner balance
- Tuning the suspension with a spring/shock package to make the car work in the corners
- Speak to future mods to take the engine beyond 800+ Hp and add a Direct Connection wide body kit
- Reveal Wesley Motorsports new “Start Defender” to protect Cristy’s Hellcat SRT from the bad guys.
The Goal?
To create a street legal, road course capable SRT Hellcat that doesn’t just make noise — it makes a statement.

One of the biggest regrets I have is selling my 2018 Challenger Hellcat!! Bought it brand new at 60 years old after finally getting in a financial position to buy one.
After having it for 3 years, a Chevy dealership just down the road from my house offered me about what I paid for it new, so like a DA, I let them buy it……. I’ve asked myself why for the last 3 years.
My thought at the time was , I just drove it on weekends ( only had 7k miles on it after 3 years), and my wife wanted C8 Vette, so…….
I honestly miss that car every day!
To anyone that’s reading this, hold onto your dreams, especially if it a Hellcat!!
