Dirt Dodge offers NMCA perks to Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320 owners By Mike Galimi D odge and NMCA are proud to announce that every new Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320 owner will receive a complimentary one-year associate membership to the NMCA for the 2019 racing season. Dodge is ramping up production to deliver the 11-second capable Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320 in the first quar- ter of 2019 and they are making it easy to have fun at the drag races thanks to a partnership with NMCA Muscle Car Nationals. “Our relationship with Dodge // Mopar kicked off last year with the popular HEMI Shootout and the Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320 mem- bership program adds to that success,” explained Steve Wolcott, founder and CEO of ProMedia Events and Publishing, the parent company of the NMCA Muscle Car Nationals. “Together, Dodge and NMCA have helped bring late-model muscle car enthusiasts into the NMCA for safe and fun competition on the drag strip, and in the process have introduced the sport of drag racing to an even greater audience. We are excited to expand that program to new Dodge Challenger 1320 owners.” The Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320 is an im- pressive modern muscle car that has a 485 horse- power, 392 HEMI under the hood. The car comes standard with drag radials and it has run a best of 11.72 at 115 mph—classifying the Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320 as the quickest naturally aspirated street-legal muscle car available. The NMCA associate membership will be activated through the SRT Concierge service. All 1320 owners will receive complimentary en- tries to all six NMCA national events in the Dodge // Mopar HEMI Shootout. There will be special parking for HEMI Shootout participants and NMCA drag racing instructors will be on-hand to help rookie racers. The NMCA membership also includes a one-year subscription to Fastest Street Car Magazine, NMCA membership card, and decal package.
