Work is nearing completion.

Here's a video of the power run with added spacer plates. Looking forward to seeing what it results in down the 1/4.

This is one awesome SUV !!

If you are on Facebook there is a 100 - 200 Dragy faebook group with a lot of European and some American cars on it, including Geo's Drag supra ( 2sec 100-200 )

Traction becoming an issue off the line with street tyres on but still managed a new PB for the 0-130 hit. A 0.6 improvement over the previous best.

Waiting for a set of BC forged rims to arrive to which I can throw on these:



Expecting to pick up at least .3 maybe more with those sticky tyres on.

Here's a quick video of the jeep roll racing against a twin turbo Huracan which runs low 9s. Not a bad showing I thought.

Love the blower whine!

Still waiting on the forged 20" wheels to mount the sticky rubber to.

In the meantime, I've been planning stage 2 for the Jeep. Time to get serious and chase some 9 second 1/4 miles.

A change of the upper pulley to a smaller size would see me there comfortably but the amount of boost and stress on the stock block would have me nervous every time I stepped on it so I'm going to strengthen the internals.

Thiket heads with upgraded titanium retainers and new valvetrain springs. Carillo forged rods and Mahle pistons should work nicely, also. The standard pistons are forged from factory but they were not designed to handle 1,300+ hp. I'm looking at a decent billet forged crank to finish it off.

This will allow me to crank the boost upto 25 PSI safely and have a limiter at 7,100RPM.

Wow, love this thread, already seemed pretty serious before you mentioned stage 2!

A Mad Vehicle!
Sat in a converted Hellcat a few months back but decided I didn't really fit, headroom wise and it didn't pass my practical rating!
Now one of these??!!! Oh dear!

Here's a video I got sent by the guy whom I raced. It's a HSV GTS running 600whp. Apologies about the quality.

Getting some decent traction with the MTs. Now the fastest Jeep WK2 in Australia.

Some good fun at roll racing with a bone stock SRT (480BHP) against my 825whp Trackhawk.

These things are properly mental.
Just seen a guy in the US has done a 9.4 1/4, apparently world record.
Really would love one as a daily
