Default 2018 SRT Jeep vs LS1 Z28

So last night coming home from the pad in Mexico, I ran into a 2018 grand Cherokee SRT. sounded not stock. How not stock, not sure. I’ve got a 98 Z28 T56, all stock except SLP lid (paper filter) and flo pro muffler. Stock weight, plus me (300+) and my buddy (210). Slowed down for a 50 roll, in 2nd gear. I jumped him and put a good car length on him, once I hit 3rd he started pulling on me. By the time I hit 4th he was passing me up then let off. Is it me or should an LS1 fbody be walking SRT jeeps all day? Granted I had been driving over an hour averaging 80 mph and the road was slightly damp so it did break traction on each shift. But still? Is this normal in y’all opinion? The only codes I have are po153 for slow 02, inefficient bank 1 cat, and the air and egr codes because it’s deleted. Stock tune as well

I think those are low 13 second vehicles. I would think it should be a close race. Did they have a passenger that you could tell? If they weren't stock might have added some power in bolt ones like long tubes,tune,cai,ported TB, but the 392 platform is pretty difficult to add a lot more power n/a.

He didn’t have any passengers. The most I could tell was at the least a catback or some sort of exhaust. I would still think I would pull away from him up top with the weight difference but it was the opposite! Definitely bugging me a little..

I could be wrong about my post above, but those 392s run strong and you having a passenger could have meant the difference between him pulling away towards the end.

They have 475hp and curb weight is over 5,000 lbs. Seems about right.

The jeep is a low 13 second car stock with trap speeds around 104-106. Considering your extra weight, and the o2 sensor issues, I think you did very well.

This race is odd, the srt8 jeep I roll raced seemed extremely slow, from the rolls we did, but hauled *** from a dig. This one realed you in up top?

Good run LS1_Kev98. I know those SRT Jeeps can roll out up top but I think they do much better from a dig. You did pretty good considering you had a passenger.

Thanks guys, since that night I’ve added a Magnaflow catback, new upstream Denso 02’s, and fresh diff oil. Might have to catch that SRT again and give him one more go with a light load!
