Nice work.

Jeep? 300? Charger? Challenger? Nice stuff, those motors are grunty

boots · 11-12-2013, 09:32 PM

It was a challenger. Even though I got too much wheel spin in 2nd it didn't matter as we have a bad azz 5.

dude...

i just watched that whole video because i thought it was going to be the said race. thats 5:47 of my life i wont get back.

boots · 11-13-2013, 02:28 AM

Sorry mainly. Lol. I wish I could have it on video. He came out of nowhere passing me up at the red light trying to flex his motor. Had to take him out. Spur of the moment.

nasty sounding M5 you got there sir! Is it RPi?

boots · 11-13-2013, 04:13 AM

I was going ask this too. If it was a Jeep SRT8, and he raced one off the line, the M5 would've gotten raped all night long. Lol!

boots · 11-13-2013, 07:52 AM

That jeep is one of the nicest I've seen. My race was a rolling in 2nd.

///M ARMY · 11-13-2013, 09:44 AM

good run. Like the grunt on the SRT 8

Unless there is something done to the Jeep they would only pull for a couple hundred feet. By the 1/8 mile the M5 would be pulling on the Jeep HARD.

I've raced a Kenne Bell Challenger at the track twice and I pulled on it hard. We were both on DRs and I was running low 11.7s to his mid 12s.

Yeah that's what I meant. The Jeep will pull on the M5 hard until about 1/8 mile, after that the M5 will fly by like the Jeep is rolling in reverse. I've had the unfortunate experience of racing Jeep SRT's at a 1/8 mile drag strip before in my F10 M5 and I had to deal with those Jeep guys thinking that they were faster than an F10 M5. Lol!

Nice Brian, the dig race would have been a closer one!!!

Nice run. Funny, I had the opposite experience. I was cruising alongside a Challenger SRT8 last summer for a mile or so until we both realized we should be taking advantage of the (relatively) empty roads. We jumped on it from a dig and it wasn't close at all. At the next light he obligatorily raised his thumb at me and went on his way.

Yes, I know the advantage from a dig favors AWD. He clarified that he raced a Challenger (RWD) hence my response to the dig comment from you.

Yup, I find that to be the case too. Nice stable, BTW.

boots · 11-14-2013, 07:12 PM

The guy raced enjoyed his defeat. Hopefully I can get a go at a gtr or similar car.

wdimagineer · 11-14-2013, 07:47 PM

The Jeep SRT8 is pretty awesome. Not the M5, but a definite step up from the Tesla. That's why I bought one as my DD.

boots · 11-14-2013, 08:40 PM

I don't care for any Telsa. I see the tesla group at cc. Id take the jeep over that any day.
