Will be interesting to see the X5M vs TH in a roll race. Who do you think would have the advantage?
Roll race kills the Launch advantage....which is pretty big...Fiat did their job there..X5M should pull a car length...but that's a pure guess...

I ordered one. Now that the cars are in the hands of some owners there have been reports of 0-60 in 3.3 and 3.2 as well as upper 11's quarter mile times in stock cars with all season tires.

Here is an 11.7 1/4 mile run:

Here is 0-60 in 3.3 (2:10 mark for launch):

Unknown, but the video was posted on the 15th, so if they were at the track on the 15th (it appears to be early evening) it was around 60 degrees out around 5pm on January 15th in Bradenton. The prior two days were between 50 and 60 degrees.

Ya not too shabby, Hennessey has supposedly hit sub 3 seconds with their modified trackhawk with simple mods (tune, full exhaust, intake).

Apparently Hennessey doesn't have much a reputation - either the company or the owner:

https://www.carthrottle.com/post/wpqymry/

https://www.google.com/search?q=henn...nessey+rip+off

The guys over on the Trackhawk Forum are not impressed with that company:
http://www.jeeptrackhawk.org/forum/4...hennessey.html

I'm tempted to buy a Trackhawk instead of an X5M, but if I did I would find a different tuner.

OH believe me, I know ALLLL about Hennessey, but they still made it go fast, so once the other Hellcat engine turners jump on board, it will be one very fast SUV.

Yeah that Hennessy tune/mod is nasty. Out of curiosity, do you know how much it runs?

Nice! Congrats!

I will be meeting Albert AKA "Darthcharger" from the jeep garage forum at San Antonio raceway on 2 February (roll race) and 24 February (off the line) for some head to head action.

I will be posting videos win, lose or draw =)

Here is today at Bradenton 50-60F. Negative 600 feet Density Altitude. That makes a HUGE positive power difference in anything running at the track. For example : Stock ZO6 at -700ft runs 10.8 at 132mph. Stock ZO6 at +3000ft runs 11.4 at 126mph. Not apples to apples, but you get the deal. Same track, same day is by far the best. Heck, my car with the baby turbos at Bristol ran 9.80 at 142mph with the boost controller off. Went to Rockingham the next weekend, ran 9.40 at 147mph with the controller off. DA really makes a difference.

Not quite yet. Mother running her TH at ATCO. Stated the following o JeepGarage forum. Hope link works.

"I had 4 runs at atco yesterday, against 2 coyote Stang GT’s, a stock SRT8, and modded civic, and It still wasn’t close.
And 2 of these cars were on drag radials and I have all season tires.
Street or strip, beating this truck isn’t easy."
