Mopar Dodge Challenger V10 Drag Pak
Mopar Introduces 2011 Challenger Drag Pak for Sportsman Racers - This One Has a V-10 and is Race-ready
"With the introduction of our new 2011 Mopar Challenger Drag Pak, Mopar will be the only place to get a factory-built V-10-powered race-ready drag car," said Pietro Gorlier, President and CEO of Mopar, Chrysler Group's service, parts and customer-care brand. "Mopar's new Challenger Drag Pak is a race rocket that will appeal to racers, collectors, dealers, and Dodge Viper owners."
Based on the 2011 Dodge Challenger and finished in a Stock Eliminator and Super Stock configuration, the 2011 Mopar Challenger V-10 Drag Pak is the first and only 500-plus cubic-inch V-10 drag-race package car. The car features competition wheels and tires, a Mopar solid rear axle with performance gear ratio, a 2-speed drag race transmission with integrated roll control, a complete competition fuel system with fuel cell, and a complete interior with gauge package.
The Mopar Challenger V-10 Drag Pak features a Bright White paint scheme with color options. The Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) is $85,512 and production begins early next year.
Mopar offers three options with this vehicle. First, the Competition Package includes an eight-point roll cage, six-point safety harness and a mesh window net (MSRP: $7,950, part number P5155820). Second, a Mopar logo body wrap (MSRP: $950, part number P5155892) and a range of body colors (MSRP: $6,800, part number P5155893). With the Competition Package, the car is ready to go down the drag strip.
Orders must be submitted using the Mopar Challenger V-10 Drag Pak Application, which is available now at www.Mopar.com, the Mopar Direct Connection Tech Line at 888-528-HEMI (4364), or a local Dodge dealer. Customers should work with their local Dodge dealer to submit their application.

You have no idea how much it costs to transform a OEM road car to a complete and COMPETITIVE drag car dont you?
Do a bit of search here....then re-think and evaluate how WRONG you are. That drag pack could be considered a deal among some serious drag racers....
Now lets see GM have the ***** to do something like this.

$85k is a pretty damn good price for a brand new competitive drag racer. Stock eliminator/Super Stock are very competitive series, so to have a car prepared from the factory is pretty cool. I know Ford also has a Mustang like this (Cobra Jet), does Chevy have a similar Camaro?

The Drag Pak is intended for supervised off-road competitive events only and is not legal for street use.
straight off the spec sheet.
im not disagreeing its not a fast car, just wow 85 grand for a non street legal car =/

You are trying to compare this type of car against a street legal, sport or exotic car. There is no comparison whatsoever.

I like your thinking. As soon as I saw it I thought..."what would it take to make it street legal??" Its a badass ride for sure. There were some rumors of a V10 Challenger for regular street use, a SRT10 beast for a DD...one can only dream, right?
