Yeah, they're quick here's a video of one doing a little run. Got from a Jeep Forum. I think the guy has a Magnaflow Exhaust and Drop-In Filter. Anyways, enjoy.

That sounds about right. Haven't seen it yet but, who knows. I've got a couple of stories especially about a guy who said the cop had a hard time catching up with him. He thought the cop was somebody else and he hit the go pedal. Needless to say the cop had to play catch up big time and the only reason why the cop caught him was because he got one exit and start slowing down.  :grinyes:

I can only imagine this drivetrain in the new Challenger, 1,500 less pounds, 6-spd....now that could be a fun ride....
