Re: Stock SUV smokes muscle cars - 04/23/21
No surprise there. The 4x4 had starting traction while Mr. Muscle was spinning the tires. As soon as the tires caught, Muscle caught up fast. If they'd gone a 1/4, it would have been entirely different.

The Fiat Jeep is a POS. This video is its only claim to fame.

Just showed up in my Utube feed, thought it was cool. There are many other videos showing the Trackhawk eating up all kinds of souped up cars, so you are wrong there.

He's probably referring more to the amount of down time the Jeep will have instead of a few track days.

I'd love to have another Jeep Cherokee, but there is no way I'd roll the dice on that again. Great R&D but very little QC.
Re: Stock SUV smokes muscle cars - 04/23/21
I only want a new Mopar if it has a Cummins in it
Re: Stock SUV smokes muscle cars - 04/23/21
Two things..........I somewhat doubt the "stock" claim, and also question just how hard some of those cars were running. I believe it was a setup from the get go.

Guy here has a AWD Tesla that has been gutted, reprogramed and tubbed that smokes anything that is street legal.
Not much range but pees off all the guys with gasoline power.

Now that is funny! I can see the possibilities though. Aluminum body, instant torque from the electric motors. The only thing you can't overcome is the weight of the batteries and the need for more weight to create more juice for more power.

Every car pulled the Jeep the 4x4 was it's only advantage .
I thought the things were $125K I remember seeing that price when they first came out .
Anything can be made fast with enough money injected .
Saw one of these Trackhawks stomp it to the floorboard down my road - Fast bugger but that's a lot of $ & depreciation $ gone .

It's easy to beat a Tesla in a race. Just meet up at a track 250 miles away and race immediately.
