The 2013 Sprint Cup Series model of the new Dodge Charger will be officially unveiled on March 11 at Las Vegas Motor
Speedway,
The reveal will take place in the speedway's Neon
Garage at 10:30 a.m. Local prior to the running of the Kobalt Tools 400. Along
with the 2013 Cup car will be a production 2012 Dodge Charger R/T,
giving fans and media an opportunity to see the many features of the
production Charger that have been incorporated into the new race car.
In
October 2009, Dodge introduced the Challenger R/T as the “new car” for the 2010
NASCAR Nationwide Series season.
“The reception for the Dodge Challenger was
simply outstanding,” said Ralph Gilles, president and CEO. “It’s been another remarkable effort by our
SRT Motorsports design and engineering teams and Penske Racing, working together
with NASCAR, to achieve a Dodge Charger that embodies so many of the
characteristics of the production version.
"Our team is confident, that even
with the iconic design features incorporated into the Sprint Cup car, there has
been no compromise in the area of competition.”
