Default Jeep SRT-8....

Well not mine but my g/f's dad just bought one and is coming in next week and I wanted to know if anybody on here knows about what those run in the 1/4. Cant wait to drive it, but I think the 1/4 mile times for those are in the high 12s to low 13s right. I'm thinking about running him just to see what those things are about cause my highest trap has been 108 but consistently trapping 107 and I know that the race is def. going to be close...

4000 lbs and 425 HP... I wouldn't be suprised if they hit 12.9.

Heck GTO's and SRT Chargers can do that and they weigh about the same.

you are gonna beat him with that trap.. they get great launch and they hold it a little, but if you guys race 0-120 you will WIN!!!!

jeep is AWD, that is what makes them run pretty good on 1/4 mile!

Motor Trend got a 13.3 out of them. Definitely extremely impressive...even more so for a SUV

If you can drive you should have no problem. **** up the launch and the AWD will get to you

they are fast for SUVs...maybe if you were stock he would have a chance, but if you can shift, you should roll him.
