Mark Pawuk to debut all-new Dodge Charger Drag Pak in Gainesville
This weekend at the 56th annual AMALIE Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals, Pawuk will strap into the all-new, Hemi-powered 2026 Dodge Charger Hustle Stuff Drag Pak by Direct Connection as the latest chapter of his storied career launches on the Gainesville Raceway stage.
The debut marks the first time NHRA fans will see a race-prepared version of the next-generation Dodge Charger on track. Revealed last fall at the Dodge NHRA Nevada Nationals, the 2026 Drag Pak pairs the iconic Hustle Stuff heritage with Dodge’s newest performance platform, driven by a competition-ready 354-ci SRT race Hemi V-8.
Only 50 serialized Charger Drag Paks will be produced—each engineered and NHRA-approved for Factory Stock Showdown competition as the most advanced Drag Pak program to date. For Pawuk, the moment is a full-circle milestone.
“I started racing in the 1970s with Dodge and Plymouth, and I’ll finish my career with Dodge,” Pawuk said. “Debuting the new Charger Hustle Stuff Drag Pak during NHRA’s 75th anniversary is special. We see tremendous potential. It’ll take time to develop—but I want to win one of those 75th-season Wallys, and I believe this car can do it.”
Pawuk’s return follows a dominant two-year run in the Empaco Equipment Dodge Challenger Mopar Drag Pak, where he claimed back-to-back championships in 2024–2025 with victories at Bristol and Norwalk, plus multiple semifinal finishes. After several successful test sessions in Florida, the veteran from Richfield, Ohio, now sets his sights on a historic three-peat—this time in an entirely new platform.
Qualifying in the Flexjet Factory Stock Showdown category is scheduled for Friday at 12:45 p.m. ET, with eliminations scheduled at 10:30 a.m. ET on Saturday. Tune in to NHRA.tv to watch this historic race milestone live!
