I posted this in the handling forum, but didn't want you all to miss it. New Challengers win the T/A 2 Championship at Daytona & this video shows how awesome the Hemi is. Sounds like Petty's 64 & laps the field like it, too. I love how the Vette's can't hang with Cameron, so make sure you watch the entire video so you can see how he devastates the field. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMzsgD94HFcAlso, here's his race video at Lime Rock where he takes the lead from Andretti on lap 21. This is a real cliff hanger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sX0vNIJHnU

For sure its dialed in, he had them covered everywhere, pull them on the straights (HEMI power) and braking later into the corners (chassis/driving), so good to see this At the 6:04 mark he starts driving around the other cars like pylons

Too bad Chrysler has zero loyalty to operations like that and will likely pull all support a year from now.
Recently they axed the rally cross darts, off road Rams, NASCAR, Lemans Vipers - am I forgetting any?

Fiat seems to have an ax to grind with any success in Motorsports that doesn't have Ferrari on it.
Mopar to the bone!!!

They left NASCAR because no competitive teams were available. Penske leveraged his other sponsor positions to get a better deal/tie in with Ford.
As for the other racing venues, there just isn't enough exposure to warrant the money spent.
They are still going strong in NHRA.
