What is a muscle car and how do you know the vehicle involved was one?
Muscle car is a term used to describe cars of the late 60’s/early 70’s, that were performance oriented. Unlike sports cars, which were for spirited road course driving, muscle cars were primarily built for drag racing duty.
The car in question is a modern-day Dodge Challenger, a tribute car to the legendary 1970 Challenger. Check out the movie “Vanishing Point”, which immortalized the Challenger.
