,September 15, 2026 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - Dodge and Tony Stewart Racing (TSR) celebrate the return of NHRA National event racing to Michigan for the first time in 66 years with the reveal of new Dodge Charger Super Bee and Purple Haze color-themed race car liveries, leading up to the inaugural Dodge NHRA Great Lakes Nationals presented by Mopar, scheduled for Sept. 18-20 at U.S. 131 Motorsports Park in Martin, Michigan.
,Team owner and racing legend Tony Stewart and TSR drivers Matt Hagan and Leah Pruett unveiled the new race car graphics for Pruett’s TSR Dodge Top Fuel dragster and Hagan’s TSR Dodge Funny Car today at the Chrysler Technology Center campus in Auburn Hills, Michigan.
,"Dodge is bringing NHRA national-event racing back to Michigan for the first time in more than 60 years. With TSR, we're also putting the spotlight on the recently announced SIXPACK-powered Charger Super Bee, the most power-dense muscle car ever, and Charger's new Purple Haze color," said Matt McAlear, Dodge CEO. "There's no better way to cap our summer-long celebration of 60 years of the Dodge Charger than seeing Matt and Leah race for the winner's circle in bold new Dodge colors and graphics."
,In August at the brand’s Roadkill Nights event in Metro Detroit, Dodge reignited a legendary nameplate and injected peak firepower into the SIXPACK-powered Charger era with the reveal of the new 2027 Dodge Charger Super Bee Launch Edition with a SAE-certified 600 horsepower, creating the quickest, fastest and most powerful SIXPACK Charger - and the most powerful Dodge Super Bee - ever. The Charger Super Bee will be featured in the Dodge display on Manufacturers Midway at U.S. 131 Motorsports Park.
,Purple Haze joined the Charger color palette in June, leaning into the Dodge brand's heritage of bold colors. A limited-run exterior shade exclusive to the 2027 Dodge Charger lineup, Purple Haze is a high-gloss clearcoat paint that shifts in bright sunlight yet retreats to a rich, deep purple in the shade. Available at a U.S. MSRP of $795, Purple Haze is currently open for orders for the 2027 Dodge Charger.
,The famed Super Bee logo on the side of each car, along with Purple Haze paint, will give the 12,000-horsepower drag machine monsters of Pruett and Hagan a striking look for racing fans in attendance at U.S. 131 Motorsports Park, as well as viewers on the Fox Sports 1 television broadcast. This weekend's race marks Michigan's first NHRA National event since 1960 at Detroit Dragway, previously located in Brownstown Township, Michigan, which hosted the U.S. Nationals.
,Hagan, the four-time NHRA Funny Car world champion from Virginia and the 2026 NHRA regular season champion, has captured 58 career NHRA wins, all in Funny Car and all in a Dodge, and the veteran racer now is battling for his coveted fifth overall crown with the opening of the six-race "Countdown." Hagan has recorded three victories in 2026 (Pomona, Bristol and Brainerd).
,"This Purple Haze color looks amazing on my TSR Dodge Funny Car," said Hagan. "It will look so badass going down the track at the Martin, Mich., NHRA event. I have won all of my NHRA races in a Dodge, and I always have enjoyed the different liveries that the Dodge folks come up with. I just really want to put the Super Bee logo in the winner's circle this weekend. I think the drag racing fans would love that, too."
,Pruett, a 13-time NHRA Top Fuel national event winner, is ready to run with the new Dodge look in Michigan.
,"It's very exciting to bring the Super Bee and popular Dodge Charger Purple Haze color livery to the inaugural Dodge Great Lakes Nationals," said Pruett, wife of team owner Stewart. "I have already put the Dodge livery in the winner's circle with the New England Nationals victory, and it would be so special to add the Purple Haze colors in our trophy case in the first NHRA National race in Michigan in 66 years."
,“Tour de Michigan:” To Hell and The Track
