Surely you can borrow/buy/steal a digital camera/cell phone camera and post some pic detailing the work that's been done to this monster....

No offense, but I have ran plenty of SRT-8's at the track. Im not trying to prove any point to anyone. I guess that I should have been a little more specific about what my rig has done to it, before I posted on here and started getting questioned by what seems to be, quite a few people. Its kind of cool to launch a 7,000+lb truck, at close to 30psi, and watch peoples jaws drop, including the folks in the quick AWD vehicles.... Remember that I dont just get take off, with no boost, everythime I launch. Im not taking anything from the SRT-8 Grand Cherokees, by any means, but at 5,280+ft of elevation, they don't run low 13's (stock) and from what I have witnessedm it takes quite a bit to get them into the 12's up here, with a good driver.... Sorry for the rant.
Basically my point was that towards the end of the quarter your Cummins is running out of steam, quick. But that SRT-8 will keep pulling long after that finish line.

I know all about diesels and what they're capable of, so you're preachin' to the choir brother. I have no doubt you beat him on the interstate and I'm sure you could take one at the track.
