2009 Limited Edition Dodge Challenger Factory Drag Pak Car
It’s 1968 all over again..Mopar brings back a legend…!
The Challenger Drag Pak is the first drag-race, factory prepped package car built in over 40 years by Mopar and builds on the heritage of the limited edition 1968 HEMI powered Dodge Darts and Plymouth Barracudas.
This competitive package car is the most effective way to begin an NHRA Stock or Super Stock program. At a minimum, Drag Pak vehicle kits require rear axle, rear suspension, driveline, driveline safety equipment, wiring, fuel cell, safety cage/ roll bars, fire system, safety harness and other additions to be considered competition ready.
Only 100 of these were made for 2009 – This is #42
The Drag Pak was developed by Mopar Performance and approved by NHRA for stock class drag racing. For exact details on how the vehicle should be configured, please refer to your sanctioning body rulebook.
Package cars are not sold as a running driving vehicle, and are not supplied with a VIN number and are not to be titled or street driven.
Due to the specialized nature of the drag vehicle implied warranties of merchantability, are excluded.
