He was laughin cause he was so happy that you didn't continue over 110, because then drag would have killed him.

first trip to Atco with my TBSS ran 13.49 @102 ran a Jeep went 13.3-13.4 @103 with a 1.8 60' where these guys are in the 12's stock is beyond me, cause if Atco aint the fastest track around point me in the direction of one faster... btw a friend tony goes by infernoSRT8 on the SRT forums went 12.7 @107 with CAI, GSM mod, Kooks and cat back also at atco, another one that has spray ran identical times and mph off the spray against me.. just some others for you to compare..

PS the stock runs were done in -1300' DA.. and the Jeeps and TBSS, once tuned, are very close with the TBSS being a toss up from a roll, the Jeep's stock converter and 5 speed are awesome, that's where the edge is..

they have the fastest 1/4 stock out of the other srt models just because of traction and tere great stock 60 ft. but of course the charger, challenger etc will out trap them

God damn it... Thanks TonyGXP... I went back and starting digging... guy lied about mods... He was in TX so I decided to start digging because I know you visit the track more than about anyone I've seen and your not the kind to turn a blind eye with a vehicle steps up to the plate to run. I would have figured Atco would be the record holder for this... it seems it probably still is.


His DA was 1463ft (above) and this is his quote from a thread I found displaying the same timeslip presented to me in the bone stock thread.

This was my first time at the track with the Jeep. It was at little River Academy. Temps were in the high to mid 50's with Zero wind.
First run I was the 2nd person to hit the track, mods are BWoody intake and Predator set at canned 91 CAI tune. Ran a 12.88.
Now I look like the ***...

Maybe someone else has some input on the WS7 thingy.
Thanks for the info.

I'm not sure I've seen a 12 sec stock SRT8 Jeep. Mine has CAI, diablo , and stat and ran the 12.5 @ 105 mph with a 1.7 60ft. I turned ESP off, put it into 1st manually and let it shift its'self down the track. I figure that's pretty good for those mods, and there was another there that day that was in the same et/mph range as mine was, but wouldn't talk about his mods at all...hmmmm..anyways, I may be considering a TC and headers, maybe it'll put it in the low 12's on a good day.

a friend of mine has a srt8 jeep like mine with 4000 miles on it and his mods are a intake,full exhaust,180stat,throttle body,125shot and a tune. He ran a 12.3@107 on motor and a 11.3@116 on the spray. with a 1.71 60ft!
