Return of the American Supercar

Hurst 500 HP Dodge SRT8 for NASCAR Fans

Is there such a thing as a street legal NASCAR that you can drive? This might come close.

For muscle car fans and lovers of high horsepowered NASCAR race cars, there is no strong brand image than the Hurst prepared super car. This year a Dodge Challenger SRT8 will be the car of choice for the Hurst treatment. 

Hurst will take the hemi-powered car and trick it out with all the Hurst aftermarket accessories for a show in November and then make it available for purchase through dealers. Hurst isn’t talking, but reliable sources say the 500 plus horsepower car is a done deal (hence why NASCAR fans would love this beast).

The cars will sell for $10K to $20K above MSRP of $37,995.
