Overview of the Scat Pack Challenger with Kenny Wayne Shepherd

Transcript

00:00 Hey everybody, I'm Kenny Wayne Shepard from Mopar Muscle Magazine and the Hot Rod Network.

00:27 You recognize this car?

00:29 If you said Scat Pack Challenger, then you're already in the loop.

00:33 That means I don't have to tell you about its class leading 485 horsepower and 475 foot

00:38 pounds of torque.

00:40 That also means that you know a performance value when you see it.

00:44 But to the average person, this might look like an ordinary Challenger.

00:48 But the reality is, this car is anything but ordinary.

00:53 With the Hellcat getting all the attention in the Chrysler family, the amazing 392 Scat

00:58 Pack Challenger and Chargers have been flying under the radar as the best performance value

01:03 in the Dodge family.

01:05 If you look at the overall performance of the 6.4 liter Scat Pack versus the cost of

01:10 entry, it's easy to see why the little bumblebee has been so popular with both traditional

01:14 Mopar lovers and Conquest buyers.

01:18 The performance of this 392 Scat Pack is phenomenal.

01:21 We got quarter mile ETs dipping well into the 12s with stock tires.

01:25 And a starting price of under $40,000, that's pretty astounding.

01:30 Even better, the Apache 392 responds very well to simple mods like exhaust, tuning,

01:36 cold air kits, superchargers, and cam swaps.

01:40 These cars are just a tire swap and a few bolt-ons away from the 11s.

01:46 A little more massaging to the engine, and you're in Hellcat territory.

01:50 Only you've got a lot more cash in your pocket when you're done.

01:54 So here's where we pose the question, how fast is your Scat Pack?

01:59 We want to know, and so does the rest of the Mopar world.

02:02 We're searching for the fastest street legal 392 Scat Pack challengers and Chargers in

02:07 the land.

02:08 And we're inviting them to take part in the first ever Scat Pack challenge at Mopar's

02:12 at the Strip in Las Vegas.

02:15 Specifically, we'll be running them in a heads up trophy eliminator on March the 18th through

02:20 the 20th, 2016.

02:22 So here's the deal, all you have to do is show up at Mopar's at the Strip with your

02:27 2015 or '16 392 Scat Pack.

02:30 Any mods you do are okay, as long as the car is licensed, registered, insured, and street

02:35 legal.

02:36 Any tires are okay, and all racing will be heads up with no handicap.

02:40 The winner will get a nice trophy and bragging rights as being the fastest Scat Pack in the

02:44 country.

02:46 The winner will also be featured on the cover of Mopar Muscle Magazine and doing a full

02:50 feature inside.

02:53 So you don't think your car is modified enough to win?

02:56 We'll be shooting every participant's car and interviewing them for Mopar Muscle's Scat

03:00 Pack Roundup Edition.

03:02 We want you to tell us all the tips and tricks that you have learned, no matter how inexpensive

03:06 or simple you might think they are, because it's not always about being the fastest.

03:11 Sometimes the interesting story is about how few mods you've done, your driving technique,

03:16 or your ingenuity.

03:18 Never before in history has so much power been available to the masses.

03:23 And for that reason, we're also holding the Hellcat Challenge for all licensed, registered,

03:28 street legal Hellcat machinery.

03:30 Hey, we'll see you in Las Vegas.

03:32 Thanks for watching.
