The Charger Daytona's two-valve continuously variable dampers allow vehicle Drive Modes to provide exceptional comfort during travel time between track locations and excellent body control and handling during track competition. The Charger Daytona's rear mechanical limited slip differential enables optimal grip and handling, while the rear spoiler provides real-world track benefits by delivering high-speed stability. The One Lap Charger Daytona Scat Pack is also equipped with Track Package, giving the Dodge One Lap team a host of performance features to unleash on the track, including: Drive Modes: The Charger Daytona Scat Pack also includes Track, Drag and Custom drive modes; Track mode optimizes vehicle performance characteristics on smooth, dry track surfaces, while Drag Mode, intended for use on an enclosed drag strip, provides optimal drag strip launch and straight-line acceleration. Custom Mode allows drivers to individually dial in steering feel, pedal response and more Launch Control: Provides optimal straight-line acceleration from a stationary start, with five selectable levels of launch intensity Race Prep: The new Charger debuts Dodge-exclusive race prep methods for both drag racing and track racing. With energy demand shorter in drag racing, the race prep system supports optimum energy output through a warmer battery.

Track-racing needs require a longer energy demand, which heats the battery, prompting the race prep system to achieve a colder start temperature, allowing more time for the battery to heat up and allowing for more track time. Race prep pages include information on the battery level, thermal level and the time remaining for the battery to achieve race readiness Drift/Donut Mode: Drift/Donut mode provides optimal vehicle setup to support drifting and donuts and allows the driver to put the vehicle in a rear-biased propulsion mode with electronic stability control (ESC) full off and then vary the amount of traction control to support drifting and donuts Drive Experience Recorder: Drivers can capture and analyze a day at the track via the dashcam in the all-new Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack with the Drive Experience Recorder (DxR). The event-based recorder, with user options for drag race and circuit race recording, offers synchronized logging of audio, video and vehicle data Dodge enthusiasts can follow Carr and Yoder as they travel throughout the country in the Charger Daytona via online race coverage at DodgeGarage.com, starting May 3.
