After putting 4000 miles on the beast I figured it was time to see how she would do on the track. I made 5 passes with a best time of 13.22 at 103.07 mph. I figured thats not bad considering the only mod I have done is the Mopar CAI. I also had 1 kill worth mentioning - a TBSS. I ran a 13.39 that pass and he ran a 13.78. He jumped me off the line (red lighted) but at about half track I steady pulled on him.

I also for the first time felt the 1-2 shift hesitation everyone is mentioning. I sure hope there is a TSB released for this soon. Any updates on this?

I couldn't believe the amount of attention the cherokee was getting. Everyone was shocked it was stock and pulled that hard off the line. Gotta love these SUVs.

Freakin' sweet! Now get that t-stat and fan mod installed. I showed a 15 awhp gain with the 185.

I amazed how much attention these bricks get, especially when everyone sees it launch into orbit! The last time I went to HRP, there were no TBSS', but I did lock "horns" with a Ram srt10 regular cab. Good kill!
