Dodge has recently unveiled the Dart Pro Stock ahead of its debut at the NHRA Gatornationals this weekend.
Set to replace the Avenger Pro Stock, that won 27 NHRA national titles, the Dart Pro Stock was developed on a virtual platform using production-based technology and tools used for street vehicles. The company however declined to give further details but confirmed that the model is powered by a HEMI engine and was created “hand-in-hand” with race teams.
Two cars will be raced this weekend and they will be driven by Allen Johnson and Jeg Coughlin Jr. Johnson’s car will be sponsored by Magneti Marelli and therefore can be seen wearing the badge of “Magneti Marelli Quality Auto Parts Offered by Mopar”.
According to Mopar CEO Pietro Gorlier, the new Dart is a testament of how Mopar uses the motorsports program as a technological proving ground with Chrysler’s own leading-edge technology and production processes. He also said that they have great expectations for its on-track success.
Well we wish all the best to the team and new Dart and hope they live upto the expectations of everyone.
