300C Racecar

12 August 2009 No Comment

One of the cars I wouldn’t expect to be racing against BMW M5s, Benzes, Audis and Jaguars is this Chrysler 300C.

This American sedan is no joke. It was race prepped by Zakspeed to run in the SuperStars racing series in Europe for privateers with their complete support. This widebody 300C runs a 6.1 V8 SRT8 engine (same as the one found on the current Challengers). And as most 300C I’ve seen these days are all “Dubbed-out” with 26″ wheels, this track only ride aint gonna have none of that. A set of 18″ BBS race wheels is the right choice.

Zakspeed developed this car back in 2007. This is how it looked like back then.

And here are some shots of the car in action from last year racing against all these european cars.


This car is still available from Zakspeed currently. Here’s one with a slightly different livery.
