You mean the SRT-8 Jeep Grand Cherokee's? They are pretty quick for their size. I had one pull on my in my LT1, bad launch and street tires. Never raced one with my LS1.

car weighed 3950 without me in it...and still can do some more weight reduction...i dunno where ur getting a 1,000 pounds less??? does ur car weigh 2950 or something???

there is more to racing than hp and weight...r/t, 60', weather, etc...it is the 1/8 mile anyways...i dont really need a lot of top end...just get it and go...

r u in or what??? or r u gonna back down to a jeep???
