Looking back that phone call was hilarious....drop the exhaust, rip out the seats, de-panel the car, OH YEAH LETS PUTS SOME SKINNIES ON!

Trying to get a DP as I am typing, doubt it will get here in time.

I found this on some site. If this is true this probably wont be a close race.

SRT performance: 0-60 mph in under five seconds, 0-100-0 in low 19-second range, 60-0 mph in approximately 125 feet
Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 formula

Hey guys, reporting in on the evening's festivities. I find out that she doesn't know how to properly shift a manumatic on the gate shifter so she had somebody else do it. I had Chef Cub's tune loaded on my car and it kicked ***. Our original location was unavailable at the time so we improvised on a different street. We went from about a 30 punch (me in first, her IDK) and she was about a carlength ahead of me before the honks. I the first two honked off and tried to get closer to her and couldn't so I honked the third one and she pulled out but I stopped her pull and started to walk her hard, like 3+ cars hard.

I shut it down after being ahead for some time and she came up to the next stoplight all pissed and refused to talk, storming off. So whatever, from a roll SRT8 Jeeps aren't that great and YES I KNOW THE SRT8 NEEDS THE DRIVER MOD. But hey when you get called out to run, people better have their **** in line when they run, and in this case, they didn't. Chalk one up for the LS4.

Precisely, the passenger was shifting the car with the bump shift lever on the tranny tunnel for her....It was odd but whatever I'll take the win.

Ill let Cub tell you guys about that turbo subi....complete with the drift buddy LOL.

But anyway I'll take the win. I talked to my buddy today who set up the race for us and he said she was complaining that I got the hit (BS, she was in front of me on the third honk) and that her little posse thought my car was bone stock; then they complained when they heard it that it was too fast and not stock.

Now I got this kid with a M5 08 Mustang on my list because he thinks he can kill me because I have an A4....too bad he can't drive to save his life. And his car is heavy and slow...this time I'm dropping cash down.
