It will for sure be a beast. Svensky might be in a bit of jeapordy of his "hemi-killer" title. :D2

Hah yeah, but I didn't spend 50K.

Another big turn off for the new SRT8 is they retain the same 5pd tranny....Seriously :fume:

Now what does concern hemikiller is the new porsche cayenne turbo. With that 8 speed transmission and 500hp it's clearning the quarter in like 12.2-12.4 :eek:

That cant be right. Should be 11's
I know right! I wish I had more than 4 gears....hahaha

:loser: :lol:

It took them a lot longer, but Jeep SRT8's are finally in the 9's for the 1/4 mile.

There are a bunch of 10 second ones, but it wasn't until recently a couple broke into the 9's. This one is the current fastest as far as anyone knows.

I only know because they come into tbssowners and talk shit. :lol:

LPM had that 9.65 last year. I'm not sure if they moved on or if they are still racing that rig.

That was still AWD which is pretty impressive. Are their any AWD TBSS's in the 9's? I thought they were all 2wd.... :dunno:

lol the front spline would shatter at that power. The AWD system on a tbss is a ghetto rig afterthought. after the front diff there is a spline that is filled with grease instead of fluid and it heats up and breaks.
