WTF is that all you could tell us:dontknow: Come on give up the goods:D


considering it rained all day it was a different " experience".......but that jeep is insane, by far the fastest off the line, funnest to drive......disappointed in the 300's, alot of sway....really surprised by the good handling of the magnums....and got to drive the new 08 viper...what a handful that thing is on wet pavement but a huge improvement over the prior years with handling and noticeable power off the line.

if you havent done the experience, do it, its the most fun you will ever have behind the wheel, i will definitely be shelling out the $500 to do it again on dry pavement.

My record is 4, but for one of them I was a crew member. :)

I'm with you guys on the Jeep SRT-8. SMOKIN!!!!
 
I've been twice and will go again if they are still doing it when I get home. Fast One (Steve) and I went to the event in Las Vegas together and both came right home and bought Jeeps.

I've had mine out on the Miller Motor Speedway in Utah. The track officials first told me they were concerned about allowing a heavy, high horsepower vehicle on the track with the other cars. So, one of them rode with me on a few test laps and quickly decided it was not a problem. Many of the other drivers had to come over after the first session and look it over. They were amazed at how well the Jeep performed. One guy in a GT40 said he first thought I was going to just be in the way but was pleasantly surprised at how hard it was to catch me. Out of a field of about 15 cars in that session he and one Vette were the only two to pass me. The brake performance was phenomenal with three 20 minute sessions of extremely hard braking. Look at the attached photo. Notice how much roll there is in the Vette compared to me.

At the driver's meeting at a subsequent trip to the track, the official in charge asked what I was driving. When I told him I was driving a Jeep he started to protest. Before I could say anything, three or four of the other drivers spoke up and told him not to worry. They told him to prepare to be impressed.

BTW, Temecula is my home town. I grew up there when there were about 200 people and 300 dogs in the entire valley. Most of my family are still there.
