2018 Dodge Demon

[Cat401]

It's not really banned...but you need a licence and a roll bar for 9.99 and faster...Dodge should have put a bar in it knowing it was going to be this fast. Can you imagine the speeds the aftermarket guys are going to get out of this thing? Different rear gears, wrinklewalls, open exhaust, different tune....be knocking on low 9's

The letter from NHRA says its banned because their rules state that OEM cars 2008 or newer must have a max speed of 135 mph and a min time of 9.99....this car did 140 mph and 9.65 so the NHRA says they are welcomed back when this car is brought into compliance of the rules and regulations of section 4 of the NHRA rulebook.

Unless the rules have changed, it would need a cage, not just a bar. 10-11.50 was a bar, 8.50.-9.99 was a cage

This is why they offered a warranty on the car valid for the track. They knew it couldn't be used on the strip without an aftermarket cage that voids the warranty.

i bet they will sell it with a key that will let the car run 135 and 9.99 all day long!

Fawk does that mustang sound mean. Sure reminds me of the Roush Drift cars at Sema.
