The display combines each brand’s rig to form one of the largest displays on NHRA Manufacturers Midway with fan-friendly exhibits and show vehicles all under one footprint. Exclusive to the display, starting at the NHRA Gatornationals, there will be an elevated viewing area atop the Dodge rig that will give VIP fans an aerial view of the midway and track.

On the lower level, fan can experience Dodge Challenger SRT^® Demon simulators, enter to win prizes, learn more about Mopar Parts and Accessories, and meet their favorite NHRA stars in autograph sessions.

In the online arena, Dodge Garage, a new one-stop digital content hub for drag racing and muscle car enthusiasts, is hosting a three-part video series, “Chasing the Title”. The series offers fans a unique, behind-the-scenes glimpse at the DSR team in action and features interviews with Pritchett, her DSR team and NHRA legend and team owner Don Schumacher.
