What was your 60ft. on that incredible 11.8sec ET run...1.6 sec, 1.7sec.? But, you're only trapping 114mph when running 11.8 sec. ET?

My buddy in his brand new, stock GT-R just ran 11.7 sec. @ 120.3mph (in 86 degree F / high humidity S. FL weather)!!!! Now, that's an indication of both a great launch AND huge HP in the top end.

btw -- I'm assuming your GC SRT-8 is not exactly stock ...what mods do you have to run 11.8 sec. @ 114mph when the other guy (1QWKJEEP) runs 12.58 sec. @ 105mph?
Here are my timeslips, da was like 2200!!

Wait, wait,wait...you have a what...Arrington 440 hemi? Sorry if I don't know what that is, but are you saying you have a different engine (than the oem stock bored out 6.1L Hemi SRT-8 engine) in your Jeep GC SRT-8 or is it majorly modded by "Arrington?" I am not familiar with this; sorry for asking, but...

Are you sure you don't have NOS?

It would appear that other Jeep GC SRT-8's that have run similar to yours are on the bottle. Look at DragTimes.com...

Sorry, but I'm calling

I have a 6.1 litre hemi that has been bored and stroked to 7.2 litres. When you open the hood it looks exactly the same. Do you guys run the NAG1 transmission? Thats what I have, beefed up of course!!

So 1st you say you beat the re-badged SL65? Then post here's video of your friends SRT8 Jeep doing it?

Umm none of what you said makes sense where did I say I ran a re-badged SL 65 and whats all this crap about trap speed is funny. Again its obvious to me you guys have no idea what you are talking about and you get your info from one of many vehicle magazines you subscribe too, I wonder what the DA was for the 11.5 bone stock SL 65 pass bet it was well in the negatives and as far as stuck mud I guess the SL 65 owner in that vid must of got some on his tires on that pass cause he got his *** handed to him down the majority of the track lucky it was not an 1/8 mile track cause he would of gone home and would have told his buddies he got his *** handed to him by at 5000 pound grocery go getter.

So what? What does a heavily modded Bored & Stroked over 1.1 liter in displacement vs otherwise stock tuned SRT8's have to do w/this thread?

Maybe you should be using you teleaid to call someone who has a clue because its apparent you do not. Can you not grasp the fact that a Arrington 440 Hemi with cam and headwork would make the same power as lets say a stock 6.1 hemi on a 200 shot

Well, ok then. As long as you come completely clean, and don't pretend your Jeep GC SRT-8 is a normal, stock SRT-8. Let's face it, junior...a stock Jeep SRT-8 is great from a launch, but is NO speedster down the 1/4mi.; it's a "FLYING BRICK" and can be modded to be quite fast, but as it is in stock form, it's not as fast and not nearly as powerful (as indicated by trap speeds) as a MB C63 AMG or SL65.

Enjoy your majorly modded, non-stock bored and stroked 7.2L Jeep GC SRT-8 (which traps 113-114mph) and I will enjoy my stock MB C63 AMG which traps 114-115mph all day long.

I pulled away from a C5 vette with a worked 383 Stroker 3 times yesterday from a roll at 60. At 120 I really started to pull away. I dont run out of power up top, 0-160 in 25 seconds!!

Dude, for you...all I can say is your JEEP traps at 105mph vs. the MB C63 AMG which traps at 114-115mph. Think about it.

No, b/c your Jeep isn't stock; you're HEAVILY MODDED with a stroked and bored out 7.2L engine. Why don't you brag about walking a stock GT-R while you're at it (not that your truck is quite that fast anyway). Jeez, these guys are killing me.

LOL no magazines Trol, these times have been run by forum members, no super negative DA either, you do realize a Biturbo engine is much less effected by DA than a N/A engine right? Facts are Facts, SL55's run 12.50-12.80 @ 111-113mph you obviously ran a RE-badged SL55

SL65's curb weight 4555lbs SL55's 4250lbs

SL65's commonly run 11.50-11.90 @ 120-124 mph, yes Trap speeds are irritating examples of true HP, your pathetic 105 trap could be beaten by a well driven N/A CLK55 dwn the 1320'...

You know what? Cut all this bull****

All it will come down to is that

What would other people think of these cars


A Jeep

or

A Merc?

when it all comes down all of us could easily got a jeep instead of a Merc

reason being , its hard to get luxury and power all at the same time

If i wanted a car faster than this i would just get some **** car and TT that

cost me less than 30 grand

You're an a$$. Both my brother and a buddy of mine have new, '10 GT-R's...they're phenomenal cars (and as a car enthusiast, I love them! ), and they both paid $5k below MSRP. So, get your head out of your a$$ or your boxy Jeep truck, and listen up...

My buddy just ran his stock GT-R at PBIR last Fri. night...he ran 11.7sec @ 120.3mph! His car is STOCK, yours is not. His car is AWESOME, and yours is a POS. Get over it and move on.

btw -- if you're interested, here is his timeslip...

https://www.dragtimes.com/Nissan-GT-...lip-19051.html

Then, his buddy's (fiske) Cobb-tuned GT-R 11.2 sec. @ 122mph timeslip...

https://www.dragtimes.com/Nissan-GT-...lip-17059.html

I think you really should run against a GT-R and make sure you post up the video, so we can ALL have a good laugh.

You have a very quick but also very enhanced Jeep that is about as similiar to a stock SRT8 as a C63 is to a C350. Thus your Jeep would be on the list but not the SRT8 in general.
Modded to modded there are several C63's with tune and bolt ons running in the 11's at or over 120 trap. Your own time slips show a consistant 22 mph gain on the big half of the track where these C63's are getting 25-26. They are not only going faster than you by 5-6 mph at the end of a 1/4 but the gap is growing as both vehicles enter triple digits.
Again you have a remarkable vehicle but not fast enough to catch the modded C63's that I am referring to.

And you think I don't know about drag racing. Ha ha...lol...now that's funny. Did you even look at the DragTimes.com timeslip comparisons between the Jeep GC SRT-8 and the MB C63 AMG...

http://www.dragtimes.com/Jeep--Chero...ag-Racing.html

http://www.dragtimes.com/Mercedes-Be...ag-Racing.html

Dude, if you think you GC SRT-8 guys are even close to the same ballpark as the MB C63 guys, then you're absolutely .
