You're hanging with some good company there brother....Nice video, great pic, and Jeep looks good. What did you do, have those two block the on ramps? Nice stretch of road with no traffic. Be safe and enjoy your "stable".:)

hmm... i can't imagine hitting 280km in the jeep unless it was going downhill!

280kmh translates to 175mph! no way the SRT will hit that unless its seriously modded...

in case people haven't seen it, here's a video with the Murcie:

thanks for all the kind words... the Jeep is absolutely awesome, even in the company of some of the other exotica. a few weeks ago, i had my friend in a 997 Carrera S say to me after a run "i have to mod my car, i couldn't overtake you!" :D

hehehe... Btw I'm talking gear ratio wise... I feel its top speed is gear limited...

Someone posted a pic of their Jeep at the top, top speed. It was Rev Limiter limited. The Tach was pegged at ~6100 rpm.

You mean this one by BahnBlastR....I think his daily commute while living in Germany was in the 135-150mph range....
