Dodge Charger Goes Mini With New Junior Dragster

If you meet the size requirements, you can already grab a brand-new Charger. The Junior Roadster is the newest addition to the Dodge Charger lineup.

Now, you can get your hands on this sleek vehicle exclusively through Direct Connection. This smaller NHRA Funny Car model sports the Fratzog logo on the grille and is built from lightweight composite materials, tipping the scales at under 30 pounds.

Its design is specifically tailored to accommodate mini-dragsters with an 85.5-inch wheelbase. That dimension is quite precise, but there is a rationale behind it. The NHRA Jr. Drag Racing League is a fantastic series that welcomes children between the ages of 5 and 17. It's interesting to note that these vehicles are capable of completing an eighth mile in just 7.90 seconds while reaching a speed of 85 mph.

You have the option to accomplish it using the latest Dodge Charger body. The Jr. Drag Racing League equips every car with a single-cylinder engine. However, racers can make modifications and use racing fuels to enhance their power, depending on the class.

Getting started with a small dragster usually costs around $5,000, but you can snag the new Charger body from Direct Connection for $3,765. This latest model, unveiled at Dodge Roadkill Nights just before the Woodward Dream Cruise, is now up for grabs.
