DODGE HORSEPOWER CHALLENGE: WEEK 3 QUESTION ANNOUNCED

Remember Fast & Furious 7?

Dodge Horsepower Challenge

The answer to the second Dodge Horsepower Challenge question is in, and we’ve provided the official video with the mighty Bill Goldberg explaining it. If you’re not participating, too bad. You could win a Dodge Challenger Hellcat Redeye.

The format for the Dodge Horsepower Challenge seems simple: five questions are given out over the course of five weeks, with the grand prize being five special-edition TorRed Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye models. The key to being eligible to win a Challenger lies in answering at least one of the weekly multiple choice challenge questions correctly.

Here’s the Week 3 (Nov. 19) Dodge Horsepower Challenge question, with the video just below:

If we recreated the scene from “Fast & Furious 7” and dropped a Challenger Hellcat Redeye Widebody from a C-130 aircraft at 5,280 ft, how much horsepower would it take to drive past it before it hits the ground if you’re 1 mile away?

Indeed, Dodge isn’t giving up the keys to these Challenger Hellcat Redeye muscle cars easily. However, consumers can visit the official Dodge Twitter and Instagram channels to discover possible clues in the form of hidden hashtags in imagery to help narrow down the multiple choice options, which are given once daily Tuesday through Saturday. After this week, there will be just two questions left.

Muscle Cars & Trucks was founded by Manoli Katakis - an automotive media veteran that has been covering the latest car news since 2009. His journalism has uncovered dozens of major product changes, updates, plans, and cancellations long before automakers were ready to make things official.

Some highlights over the years of his reporting include the uncovering of the Zora trademark before anybody else reported on the coming of a mid-engine Corvette, as well as the dead-accurate reporting of the coming of the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2, two years before it hit the market, and even before the debut of the concept vehicle. This type of reporting has immediately continued here, with reports of the original seventh-generation Camaro plans being shelved, as well as what's in store for the Chevrolet Silverado.

Some of his work can be found on massive automotive media outlets, such as Motor1. He also has been a guest on the 910AM Radio Station with Detroit News auto critic Henry Payne, as well as the enthusiast-oriented Camaro Show podcast.

Over the years, Manoli has interviewed various automotive industry titans, leaders, and people that make things happen otherwise. These include figureheads such as GM CEO Mary Barra, GM President Mark Reuss, automotive aftermarket icon Ken Lingenfelter, Dodge firebrand Tim Kuniskis, along with various chief engineers of vehicles such as the Ford F-150 & Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro & Corvette, and many more.

At MC&T, Manoli is taking his journalism expertise, deeply planted sources, driving abilities, and automotive industry knowledge to new levels, covering more vehicles and brands than ever before. This is the place where you will continue to read groundbreaking stories about American performance vehicles, pickup trucks, and sport utility vehicles. Here is where you’ll also read insights and quotes from various automotive subject matter experts on the latest relevant products, as well as some of the latest official news from their manufacturers.

Fun facts: he also once beat Corvette Racing driver Tommy Milner in an autocross with a Chevrolet Bolt EV. The biggest vehicle he’s ever driven is a John Deere mining truck. Besides a go-kart, the smallest vehicle he’s driven has been a Hyundai i10. He’s also spent time in the cockpit of various American performance vehicle icons, including the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Dodge Challenger Demon, and Ford Mustang GT350R. He has reviewed dozens of trucks, SUVs, and performance vehicles over the years.

One of his favorite new vehicles on the market today happens to be the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Bison. He is also a card carrying member of the Sports Car Club of America, and regularly participates in Detroit Region autocross events.
