2023 Dodge Challenger

Way back in 1970 when the Dodge Challenger came out a new class in drag racing made its debut, Pro Stock! The new Pro Stock class featured cars you could buy off the showroom floor, heavily modify the chassis, get the baddest engines known to mankind thrown in it, and go drag racing hoping to get in the elusive 10-second 1/4 mile club. Boy, the Good OL' Days could have never imagined this! Dodge's Demon 170 is the ultimate F.U. to the bureaucrats in Washington making the rules. Rules are meant to be broken and this one year only, 1025 horsepower, once-in-a-lifetime Demon 170 broke them all! If you knew someone (your banker!) you could order one of the 3301 quarter-mile beasts! Well, we know a guy, a guy who likes all the options. Out of those built, fewer than 8% were painted Go Mango orange, and out of those only 25% had Carbon Fiber wheels and only 23% of those had a sunroof and basically every other option available! So while we all dream of drag racing like the good ol' days a little A/C, a nice stereo, and all the creature comforts are nice too. The creature comforts can be turned and the launch, and I mean launch control can be engaged all on the way to an 8.9-second quarter mile! We've never tried as it's only been pulled into the garage from the trailer but I've had my ass in the passenger seat of one and it's simply terrifying. The 70s were good for muscle cars but 2023 will always be remembered as the pinnacle.
