Smoked by Jeep Sr10 or whatever its called

335I talian Stallion NJ · 08-12-2007, 11:51 AM

Hey... I got smoked by a jeep sr10? at a light yesterday, maybe I was underestimating it and didn't push hard enough.... oh well.... just thought I would share my sad situation

Zeeman · 08-12-2007, 11:59 AM

if it was a Jeep, it was the SRT8. you shouldn't be too suprised based on the specs:

6.1-litre V8, OHV, 16 valves
Horsepower 420 @ 6200 rpm
Torque 420 lb-ft @ 4800 rpm

Even though it weighs about a 1000 lbs more than the 335, it's packing a lot of power.

Zeroday · 08-12-2007, 12:00 PM

nice death, those are some fast trucks and with AWD and auto trans they launch perfectly every time.

Zeroday · 08-12-2007, 12:02 PM

btw, 335i?

NaTuReB0Y · 08-12-2007, 12:05 PM

SRT10.........that's the Viper.

ahahahaha!

Lee Rambler · 08-12-2007, 12:09 PM

if you are stock, I can believe it. they run mid to low 13's stock and launch like crazy with the all wheel drive. from a dig, even with a piggyback you'll likely get pulled. I raced one on the highway and pulled a car or two, but from a dig to 60 or 70 I'm not so sure...

stressdoc · 08-12-2007, 12:26 PM

If it bruises your ego, then get Procede V2 and practice your launches. I prefer the stealth launch, make it look like you're not really trying.

What's a stealth launch?

Jaws · 08-12-2007, 12:34 PM

^no smoke, noise, dramatics. Hook up and go.

kapoo · 08-12-2007, 12:38 PM

usually From 0-60 Miles, Jeep SRT8 Is King... Since Its AWD

the monsterous engine under the hood helps a little too.

ejazbmw · 08-12-2007, 01:03 PM

no surprise on that one.......

lkevinl · 08-12-2007, 01:28 PM

Haha... yall must admit it sounds funny to say you got smoked by a Jeep...

Javier · 08-12-2007, 02:12 PM

Just so you know, the Hennessy tuned SRT8 is the fastest SUV on the planet.

look it up

dpeterson · 08-12-2007, 02:16 PM

at the end of the day it's a freakin jeep... jeese... if you are bummed he's riding in a jeep go get one... it's a hunk of american crap. be prowd, you have 10x's the car of that dork.

even better... let him take a turn... then see who's laughing.

E90RWC · 08-12-2007, 02:31 PM

^ Have you ever driven one?

That shit can handle well at very high speeds. It's a fuckin' monster, but you are definately right with the quality. The interior looked like pure ass.

sflgator · 08-12-2007, 04:50 PM

A PROcede 335i pulls on a Jeep GC SRT-8, unless he's got some mods. I've run with 3 SRT-8s...a Chrysler 300C SRT-8, a Dodge Charger SRT-8, and the Jeep GC SRT-8...beat them all by at least 1.5 CLs. The Charger SRT-8 was the most challenging and I beat him 2x from a dig to ~ 110mph; he got a better launch then me, but I caught up and we were even until I hit 3rd gear, when I pulled 1.5 CLs ahead.

I swear you mention procede in every one of your posts

If you're talking about 0-60, I think in this case, due to how consistently well the jeep launches, you may be off base on this assumption though. If you're just doing a 0-60 run the launch can be everything. A rwd e92, especially a manual, is going to have to have a really good driver behind the wheel to be able to beat an srt8 jeep 0-60.

WOW, took 16 posts for you to start with the Procede stuff...

Zeroday · 08-12-2007, 08:08 PM

One of many reasons to have the 6AT!

And, yes, my car IS faster than these stock SRT-8s; proven several times with 3 different SRT-8s...been there, done that.

yes all dodges (sans viper) are DODGES... it's apples and oranges.. if it did the quarter in 1 second i wouldnt be caught dead in it. not a flame, but come on, i never thought i'd live to see people comparing a dodge product to bmw.
