Even though the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon was a limited-run model that’s been sold out for a while, there are some hints at what the Demon offered that we’re going to see in other Challenger models for 2019. To start with, the Hellcat has already received a power boost, but one of the most interesting places we see the Demon influence is in the Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320. This car is one that you can take to the drag strip or enjoy on the roads that you drive on every day.
What is the Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320?
This new car made a debut in Denver prior to the Dodge Mile-High NHRA Nationals Powered by Mopar. What this car happens to be is a 2019 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack with the 1320 Package added to the mix. The package costs a little less than $4,000 and since an automatic transmission is needed the cost will be increased by close to $1,600 on top of the base price of the car as well. The added benefits you find at the track are certainly worth the increase in the price that you’ll pay for this car.
More Details
When you start to explore the specifics of the Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320, you’re going to find some incredible qualities. This car uses the 392 Hemi V8 engine that pumps out 485 horsepower and 475 lb.-ft. of torque which is attached to the TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission. The package you add brings in the SRT-tuned adaptive damping suspension with drag mode, a line lock, a transbrake, the torque reserve, and the extreme-duty 41-spline half shafts. These are all qualities that were found in the Demon. This car comes with just a front driver’s seat to save weight, but if you want a passenger seat and the rear seat they will only cost you $1.00 to be included.
Riding the Way You Want
In order to have the drag race you want for this car, you need to have great tires. This car rides on specially developed Nexen SUR4G Drag Spec tires. These tires are street-legal drag radials and allow this car to offer you consistent and amazing quarter mile times. When you take the Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320 to the drag strip you’ll be able to finish a quarter mile race in 11.7 seconds at 115 mph. At this speed, this car is the fastest naturally aspirated, street-legal muscle car on the market.
Time for the Speed of the Challenger
While the Demon is gone, the influence isn’t. You’ll find more of the Demon presence than you might have ever thought possible in the Scat Pack model of the Challenger. Get behind the wheel of the Challenger R/T Scat Pack and ask for the 1320 Package to be added so that you can have a car that’s perfect on the dragstrip and able to give you a drive you love every day.
