Mopar is bringing in their new iconic Dodge Challenger muscle car to National Hot Road Assocation drag-racing competition. Mopar built the first two Challenger Drag Race Package Cars for development and testing for its new Challenger Package Car program. To accentuate the weight savings, they have also featured an added composite, polycarbonate and lightweight components and systems.
Mopar will build a minimum of 100 Challenger Drag Race Package Cars to meet the NHRA requirements. Basing on the production of the Dodge Challenger SRT8, Mopar’s modern factory-prepped Challenger Drag Race Package Car will begin as a special Body-in-White from Chrysler’s Brampton, Ontario, Canada, assembly plant.
To accentuate weight savings, the Package Car program includes: composite lift-off hood with functional scoop, Viper-style front seats, polycarbonate door windows, lightweight cooling module with electric fan, manual rack and pinion steering, special cable-operated deck lid release, special lightweight front brake assembly and special cable-operated throttle linkage and pedal assembly.
