Jeep SRT-8 Burnout - yep, it’s impressive

May 13th, 2006 by admin

Let’s get the credits out of the way first:

I saw this earlier today while checking out Jalopnik’s posts from the weekend. They didn’t MAKE the vid, but the credits for that are IN THE VID, so that’s covered.

Now, while it’s always cool to watch high-dollar rides like Corvette’s and Porches and Mercedes burn several thousand miles from their rear tires in a few seconds, it’s a rare treat when an Impreza STi joins the fun, is driven by someone who knows what to do, and ends up spinning on the spot.

…and for good measure, the all-wheel-drive wonder ends up in the grass…

BUT, the REAL reason for this post is the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT-8. This thing is a monster - plain and simple. Smoke now - stop, start again. The driver controls it all like flipping a switch.

At one point a marshall tells them to stop, it appears - that doesn’t last, but they break (brake?) when the interior fills with smoke and they need to figure out which way to point the truck…LOL

Click HERE for the vid - and enjoy! It’s a great 4+ minutes! Depending on your connection, it might take a minute or two to download, so please be patient.

Truly one worth watching.

Thanks to the One Lap of America gang for doing this, the guys who made the vid and Jalopnik for making it part of my morning.
