Plenty of 2011 Challenger lovers hope that this is a sign of things to come & that perhaps 2012 or later Dodge Challengers will have a v10 option for the street. Most agree it would be a positive fire way for Dodge to compete in the latest "pony" automobile wars as the Challenger has such a weight disadvantage.
"With the introduction of our new 2011 Mopar Challenger Drag Pak, Mopar will be the only place to receive a factory-built V-10-powered race-ready drag automobile. Mopar's new Challenger Drag Pak will appeal to sportsman drag racers, collectors, dealers, & Dodge Viper owners."
