Legendary Racer’s Choice: Chrysler 300 SRT and Tommy Kendall

Tommy Kendall hustles the Chrysler 300 SRT around the track.

Tommy Kendall knows how to hustle a car around a race track. That’s why he’s one of the drivers of the SRT Viper GTS-R in the American Le Mans Series.

But sometimes Tommy needs room for a passenger or two, or three. But he still likes to go fast. No problem when he’s driving the Chrysler 300 SRT.
The 2014 Chrysler 300 SRT continues with the 6.4-liter, 470-hp HEMI V-8 driving the rear wheels through a five-speed automatic transmission.
It’s a road rocket offering the ultimate combination of world-class luxury, power and handling that makes the daily drive anything but boring, as Tommy shows in this video:

Do you know your blood type? Mine is 100 octane (not your standard blood bank classification). At any given moment, I’m thinking about cars – driving one, fixing one, buying one or (in my dreams) restoring one. So I love to tell stories that involve horsepower, brake and wheel diameters

Do you know your blood type? Mine is 100 octane (not your standard blood bank classification). At any given moment, I’m thinking about cars – driving one, fixing one, buying one or (in my dreams) restoring one. So I love to tell stories that involve horsepower, brake and wheel diameters and 0-to-60 times – and the people who make it happen. Because behind every awesome vehicle are amazing people with vision and the desire to make it a reality. I cover Mopar, Dodge, SRT and motorsports for Stellantis Digital Media. I learned to drive on a 1973 Jeep CJ-5 with the rare Super Jeep option package and three-speed manual transmission. I still belong to the dwindling club of people who prefer to shift their own gears, and think the best way to drive is with the top down!
