<\/a>\u201cMopar and Dodge have a winning heritage at the drag strip, and our brands are working even closer together in 2018 to continue that tradition with a lineup that includes Leah Pritchett, Matt Hagan and the entire Don Schumacher Racing organization,\u201d said Pietro Gorlier, Head of Parts and Service (Mopar), FCA. \u201cFrom the professional classes to the Sportsman ranks to the enthusiast experience, we are committed to connecting with NHRA racers and fans who are passionate about horsepower both at the track and on the street.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cHagan, who also captured four wins and the fifth spot in the 2017 standings, will celebrate a decade behind the wheel of a Mopar-powered DSR Dodge Funny Car in 2018. The brands will serve in a primary sponsorship role for 14 races during the 2018 season as Hagan seeks his third career NHRA Funny Car title.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhere does the time go?\u201d said Hagan. \u201cTen years, that\u2019s a chunk out of your life. I was very fortunate to get hooked up with Don Schumacher. He surrounds himself with the best, and Mopar and Dodge are key sponsors. It has been good for me to be able to carry that banner. It\u2019s a huge honor.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe didn\u2019t get it done last year, on the Funny Car or Top Fuel side, and that\u2019s just not characteristic of DSR. I know we\u2019re going to come back here in 2018 super strong I expect big things this year. We\u2019re going to try really hard to buckle down and come out strong. The biggest thing is, you can have a couple of good races, but we need to be more consistent.\u201d<\/p>\n
