Dodge Challenger Super Stock Drag car to be available within weeks! According to oh20, a Challenger 800 pounds lighter than the production version will be available for racing. This will be a special factory package built for NHRA-sanctioned Stock Eliminator drag racing. Features will include a unique serial number sequence, variations of current Hemi and 5.9 liter Magnum engines, automatic or manual transmission, and special lightweight features including:

* Lightweight front fascia support system
* Composite lift-off hood with functional scoop
* Lightweight cooling module with electric fan
* Special modified drop-out front crossmember
* Lightweight drag race-only front brake assembly
* Seats to accommodate six-point harness
* Special Body-in-White modified for drag racing

This is one serious package that does away with such frills as windshield wipers, power windows, HVAC System, sound deadener and rear seats to create one lightweight and intense racing machine. Additional details will be available next week. Stay tuned to Allpar.com ... and please post this URL: http://www.allpar.com/cars/dodge/challenger.html

Looks like it's got a solid door pillar/post too.

When I heard about this last year it was also heavily rumoured that Ford and Chevy will also be releasing "strippers" as competition. I can see a few of those Challengers getting locked away for 30 years as investments....
