After a lengthy absence, Dodge returned to NASCAR competition in 1995 with the NASCAR SuperTruck Series by Craftsman (later the Craftsman Truck Series). In 2001 the Intrepid became Dodge's entry into NASCAR's top series, then called the Winston Cup.
In 2005, the Intrepid was replaced by the Charger. When the Car of Tomorrow was raced for a partial 2007 Nextel Cup season, the new car was the Avenger. It returned, however, to the Charger the following year.
