Top 10 Team Mopar Moments of '00s: #8 'Big Daddy' and 'Miss Mighty Mopar' Debut Mopar Drag Pak at Mopar Mile-High Nationals

"Big Daddy" Don Garlits and Judy "Miss Mighty Mopar" Lilly were behind the wheels as Mopar revealed two prototype Dodge Challenger Drag Pak by Mopar vehicles at the 2008 Mopar Mile-High NHRA Nationals. Lilly brought the crowd to its feet with a smoky burnout before she and "Big Daddy" launched the new package cars on their maiden runs down the strip.

Garlits would make his comeback to NHRA competition the following year in his very own Drag Pak, leading a parade of Mopar Drag Pak vehicles in their NHRA National event competition debut at the 2009 Mac Tools U.S. Nationals. The Dodge Challenger Drag Pak by Mopar is the "first" drag-race-only factory package car to be built since the 1968 HEMI Dart and 'Cuda vehicles.
