A Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock has just been featured in a brilliant video.
In a post circulated online, the Dodge appears in a drag race.
But that’s not the fascinating part of the video.
The best part is that the man who dragged the Dodge… is blind.

Dodge Challenger: king of the drag strip
By now, you probably know that the Dodge Challenger is one of the best drag cars money can buy.
In fact, Dodge tends to specialise in producing cars that dominate the quarter mile drag race.
The Challenger, especially, is a master at putting the power down on the asphalt.
And one YouTuber has shown himself doing just that – but this is no ordinary drag race video.
Blind YouTuber breaks barriers
Sheldon Wilson is, like all of us, a car fanatic.
Known as @moparmuscle14 on Instagram, he also happens to be blind.
However, and to his immense credit, Sheldon doesn’t allow his disability to stop him.
Last year, Sheldon caused a stir online by drag racing his friend’s RAM 1500 TRX.
He set a brilliant track time of 12.728 seconds, clocking a top speed of 107.28MPH.
This time, though, Sheldon wanted to push the drag race envelope even further.
Sheldon channels power of Challenger SRT
Sheldon showed up at Alaska Raceway Park with one clear goal.
To run an 11 second quarter-mile in his 2022 Super Stock.
The guys that run the YouTube channel 1320video invited Sheldon to the track to test his Super Stock.
Just to clarify what a Super Stock actually is: it’s a unique blend of the Dodge powerhouse autos – half Redeye and half Demon.
It also comes with a monstrous 6.2-liter HEMI V8 engine that produces 807HP.
Sheldon’s Super Stock also comes equipped with all sorts of cool toys to help his car dominate the drag race.
His Dodge comes with an LMI air intake, as well as a mid-muffler delete.
It also has front skinny tires and stock DOT-legal drag radials at the rear.
Eventually, Sheldon gets inches away from his goal, clocking 11.517 seconds with a top speed of 123.18MPH.
Here at Supercar Blondie, we applaud Sheldon for his spirit, as well as for challenging the stereotypes that surround him.
