12.51 @ 110.48

Details:

2006 Jeep with Hennessey SRT600 making 5-6 psi boost. Stock motor, heads, etc. I would guess that the power at this level is about 480-500 rwhp.

Drove the Jeep to and from the track 115 miles round trip. Got 16.6 mpg cruising 80-90 mph. The best I ever got when the Jeep was stock was around 14.5.

It was hot at 95 deg. and humidity at over 80%.

First pass - blew an intercooler hose loose on the launch and didnt have any boost for that run.

Was able to re-secure the hose and make another pass. This was the 12.5 @ 110 mph run. The launch was not all that strong and the 60 ft. was about what I had gotten stock. So I think there is some room for improvement over the 12.5 but I am happy with that for the first time out.

Timeslip is listed in that section of the website.

Re: 12.51 @ 110.48

I hate to say it bro, but id have to see a video of that to belive it at those temps/track conditions. It just seems a bit crazy, if its true, then that is totally awsome bro. Id love to see the video, and ill be the first to withdraw my statement if I see a video...freak

I checked in the timeslip section, and saw your time, but was unable to view the time slip. So I am more inclined to belive you, but really need to see atleast a slip man, stop torturing us and post a video lol...freak

I was at the track last night, didn't see the run as I was in staging, I did see the time slip, many of us from the forums were there. This thing did perform in some rather bad race conditions

Congrats on some good times. Love to see that truck in action, but with the price of gas I might as well buy my own turbo before I drive to a M&G in TX. lol

Re: 12.51 @ 110.48

Congrats on the showing. That is definately a strong time for the conditions and with a vehicle that has the aerodynamics of an apartment complex...I would like to see it with a good launch on a nice cool night...then...with about 12lbs of boost.
