Sneak Peek at the Dodge Challenger Drag Race Package Car from Mopar
Some go fast, and others go faster.
Those others who want to race their Dodge Challenger SRT8 at the track have been eagerly awaiting the launch of the drag race package car from Mopar.
NHRA racers and racing fans have been waiting to hear more about the car from Mopar since it was announced at the 2007 SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) Show in Las Vegas.
They may not be waiting much longer.
Mopar’s new factory-prepped cars harkens back to the heritage
of the ‘68 HEMI®-powered Dodge Darts and Plymouth
‘Cudas. The ’68 package cars represented a significant
moment in Mopar’s history and the sport of drag racing. They
were also a major milestone in the evolution of the
second-generation HEMI POWERPLANT. Some of drag racing’s
biggest names drove these crowd-favorite ’68 package
cars.
40 years later, Mopar’s drag race package car is ready for
competition and victories off the tree. It’s not for the
faint of heart – or the streets. An announcement of its world
debut is coming shortly from Mopar.

Sneak Peek at the Dodge Challenger Drag Race Package Car from Mopar Some go fast, and others go faster. Mike pick me--- pick me, I want to be one of the "OTHERS"! Not many of us, but I bet there might be 1 or 2 Magnum SRT8 out there, that would love to get in on these "Drag Race Packs". I for one, would hope the SRT division would not forget us? I mean, after all... the Challenger owes us one, no? So here I am........ WAITING!
