2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon

Here it isn’t even Thursday—which, lately, has been Demon day—but we have yet another slow drip of information about the upcoming Dodge Challenger SRT Demon. Well, at least, about the box that comes with the drag-racing coupe. It’s a Demon-branded tool kit from Snap-on Business Solutions for getting the car drag-strip-ready.

We first learned the Demon would come with its own box of goodies toward the beginning of the teaser campaign, but what we could see was dark, and there was no information about what was included. Now we know the tools are for a “street-to-track transformation.” The crate includes a hydraulic floor jack, a cordless impact wrench and charger, a torque wrench, a tire-pressure gauge, a fender cover, and a tool bag. Dodge says it will include 12 more parts, including Direct Connection performance parts, matching Demon wheels, and a Demon Track Pack System.

The crate further shows that the Demon will be one of the most specialized vehicles to come from a mainstream manufacturer in recent memory. We already know it will be more powerful than the Hellcat, will have beefier driveshaft components, it’ll be at least 200 pounds lighter, and it will put power down with 315/40 Nitto NT05R drag radials, among many other things. The car and its included gear will be unveiled in full on April 11, on the eve of the New York auto show. Until then, get ready for more soul-sucking teasers.
