Best in Vehicle Video - Ever!!
I belong to another forum (or two) and this guy just finished his hot-rod build and tuning of his SRT-8 Jeep - @1100HP to the flywheel in race tune - on pump gas. It is a bored/stroked stock-block modern hemi = 440ci - with cam, head work, long tube headers w/cut-outs... and.... I almost forgot............whipple style supercharger.
I think the first segment is priceless!!! - but almost as good is his 1/4 time and trap speed Enjoy!! select the first clip at the top of the page: 1100 hp jeep srt8 - YouTube

Very impressive!.
The first part of the video is cool. On similar note- A buddy in my hometown works at Ford and has been building up a Lightning that he bought new(1994?)over the years. Last year he showed me the dyno sheet........ 1200+ HP!!!!! We all thought he was just a braggart. His NEW nickname is "Fast Freddy with the Ford".

Pretty speedy. I'm surprised the tranny can handle it. 5100# running low 10s at 130 is a lot of force for the drive train to handle with what looks like gobs of traction.
Seeing him street racing at night was a bit scary considering it seems like he's got 2 little girls. It would really suck if he lost control and got in an accident. I've done stupid stuff that I shouldn't have, I know, but with close to 1000hp, bad things happen a lot more quickly.
