Does anyone out there have a car cover that fits for one of our DP cars. Or what are you guys using? Any pics would be great.

California Car Cover; owned by the DeFranks.
They will make it custom for you to fit the scoop and spoiler. They will also custom embroider your car # or whatever else you want.
I have one and it is great quality!

I have one for the Suburban and both juniors. Great quality.

Just call california car cover, ask for the cover for the challenger rt/dragpak.

I got the one for the RT since it can be used with door mirrors which you may or may not want on your dragpak, but have on a street car. Fits perfect like all their covers.

I bought a "large" car cover that I saw on TV for my Drag Pak. It had the unique property of rolling up into a hand held reel case. And it was perfect size for my car.

To take the cover out and cover the car, you just grab the end and pull it off of the reel. There are holes in both sides of the cover at the bottom by the doors, so we toss a bungee strap under the car to attach and hold the cover in place.

It has withstood the winds of Las Vegas. So that is good.

When you want the cover off, you remove the bungee under the car, then hook the little nylong rope lead end onto the reel, wind until the whole thing is neatly in reel, then toss the reel into the corner of the trailer and you are good to go.

The bad news is that although it is a decent dust cover, it is not waterproof. And if if left on overnight where you even have heavy dew, the car will get wet. So, I am thinking of buying waterproof spray hoping it won't make the cover too stiff to roll up. In the meantime, if I think there is a chance of rain or heavy dew, I put sheet plastic over the electronics before I put the cover on.

When I first got it last year, Chris laughed at it, as another waste of money. After he used it a couple of times though, he came around. And it is nice not trying to fold or manually roll up a big old cover which you then try to stuff back into a box, that you wonder how it was in there in the first place, and where it wont all fit anymore.
