In terms of performance, the Red Juggernaut is a decent car. It has a good acceleration speed. Nitrous boost is above average but not as powerful as seen on some [[SpeedBoost]] exclusive Tier 2 cars. The 300C is prone to oversteer in low-speed corners and oddly featured with heavy steering whilst turning at high speeds. Top speed is 185 mph (298 kmh).

The addition of pursuit skill mods make the 300C more suitable for [[Pursuit Outrun]] and [[Team Escape]] than racing. It can outmatch most averagely performing Tier 2 cars, but might lose to cars with better handling such as the Blue Juggernaut [[Chevrolet El Camino SS]].

The Chrysler 300C SRT-8 is a high performance variation of the Chrysler 300C.

The 300C SRT-8 came onto the automobile market in 2004. The SRT-8 received a small rear spoiler integrated onto its body in 2007. The second generation 300C SRT-8 with a 6.4L HEMI V8 went into production in 2011.

Need for Speed: Carbon

The 300C SRT-8 appears in Need for Speed: Carbon as a tier 1 Muscle car with a price tag of $35,000 that is unlocked from the beginning of the game.

It is an average performing vehicle. Its handling suffers from severe understeer in corners due to its large size and mass. This trait makes it less controllable than the 1967 Chevrolet Camaro SS.

The car is best used in pursuits to take advantage of its durability. Race events without many sharp corners are best suited to the 300C since it has a moderate top speed and quick acceleration with performance upgrades, but still lacks behind to most cars in handling.

In the career mode, the 300C is commonly used by minor crews such as Inferno and can sometimes be seen being driven by 21st Street Crew members. Neville will drive a 300C if the player chooses the Chevrolet Camaro as their starting car class in the career mode.

In the challenge series, the player must drive a modified 300C SRT-8 in a bronze tier speedtrap race.

It can also be found in the game files of the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 releases of Need for Speed: Undercover.

The model is in an incomplete state and only some aftermarket parts can be applied, but if included in the released game, it could have been purchased with a price tag of $35,000.

Need for Speed: World

The 300C SRT-8 was released in Need for Speed: World on August 16, 2012 with a tier 2 rating. Since August 22, 2012, it has a C class rating.

In terms of performance, the Red Juggernaut is a decent car. It has a good acceleration speed. Nitrous boost is above average but not as powerful as seen on some SpeedBoost exclusive B class cars. It is prone to oversteer at low-speed cornering and oddly has heavy steering whilst at high speeds. Top speed is 176 mph (283 km/h).

It might be less effective in multiplayer races due to its handling characteristics, but performs well in pursuit events because of its mass.

The addition of pursuit skill mods make the juggernauts more suitable for Pursuit Outrun and Team Escape than racing, since they are easily outmatched by B class cars with better handling such as the Ford Escort RS Cosworth. They both have an increased top speed of 185 mph (298 km/h).
