Dodge continues to fly the flag for American performance by offering a street-legal drag car – the Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320.

It’s teamed exclusively with a quick shifting Torque Flite eight-speed automatic that features a transbrake, Line Lock and Torque Reserve features, along with an SRT-developed Active Damping Suspension tuned for drag racing and ultra stout 41-spline rear axles. Specially developed Nexen SUR4G Drag Spec 275/40R20 street legal drag tyres are also part of the package.
