2011 Dodge Challenger Drag Pkg....V10!

I can't believe (since I work at a Dodge dealership) that I hadn't heard about this. This years drag package Challenger will be powered by a V10. I'd like to try one of those out!

 

I would like to stick one of those in my truck!!!

I wonder how hard it would be to fit it in place of a 5.7?

 

Did you know that the term "Drag Pak" was used by Ford in 1969/70 on 428 Cobra Jet cars, with 3.91:1 & 4.30:1 axle ratios?

Cool car, hardly looks like a production car though.

 

If Mopar is really producing this, it is sweet.

 

Go by yourself an SRT10 truck.

 

Darren, I know that you already know the deal on how different the SRT-10 truck is from a typical hemi truck. For those of you who do not. I have a friend (yes I have a friend) who owns one, it's the regular cab with 6 speed. I was impressed with the way that the truck is set up. It is set up like a road course truck, big sloted rotors all the way around, and a very nice suspension, very different from the normal Hemi trucks. The truck is deffinately more than just a Dodge truck with a V-10 stuck in it. It handles extremely well in curves at speeds that had me a little concerned as we approached them, the first time I went for a ride in it. He put a Magnaflow cat-back on it and a cold air intake, and has run a ,not too shabby, best of 13.24 in the quarter on street tires. All in all, it is a very nice truck. Not to mention, that he keeps it looking showroom clean all the time.

 

Id rather have a Cobra jet drag car This year they get a SC 5.4L .

 

Awesome! But, i have to say i wish it was a BiG HEMI.

 

This is a production drag car...like the Thunderbolts and other lightweight cars in the 60s. A bunch of stuff deleted for weight and a bunch of go fast stuff. Last year the package cars had a Hemi....but a V10 is bad!

Yeah the fr500cj Mustangs are bad too....but I'll never sit in either but it is nice to dream. Guess I'll just have to settle for my old sbf powered 64 Cyclone drag car if I ever get around to getting it back together. Gotta finish this Maverick first.

Here's last years drag pak Challenger

 

I don't see any thing wrong with a sbf powered Cyclone drag car. Cyclone's are the heat
I was wandering if they had gotten the V-10 to stop sounding like a slant 6.

 

Viper trucks will hurt you (warning...there is an expletive)

 

I'd rather have this...



It may not be as fast but still 12.6's are bad and it's street legal

 

The cool thing about Ford's V10 is it's an odd fire vs Dodge's even fire. That's why the Viper sounds like a 6 cylinder.
