Grand Cherokee SRT8 S/C wanted to play

a guy in a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 Supercharged wanted to have fun.. he hit and i let him go then i hit it going behind him, i let him stay ahead when i come close to him i let the off the acc. pedal then hit it again. i felt that it would be beat him. i really wanted to have a real race to see how he can keep up, but he probably he didn't know that i was only playing with him i think he thought he really beat a Z06 and he refused to race again.
if we had a real race what do you guys expect the outcome to be? anyone raced one of these supercharged SRT8's ?

Re: Grand Cherokee SRT8 S/C wanted to play

Race him up a washed out, muddy logging road in the springtime. One that still has snow on it, then report back.

Moral of the story: Fight your best fight, not his.

Obviously this guy didn't know that.

They should be pretty fast, but not enough for a Z. I think it would be one of the fastest SUVs, considering it has a blower.

It would have to have LOTS of horsepower to match a Z on the highway. A huge 4800-5000lb aerodynamic brick just doesn't cut through the air very well.

From a dig, you better watch out though. AWD + lots of torque = insane launch.
