Impressive as stock,.esp given the vert weighs 60kg more than the coupe.

 

Nice! I have an an STR and a hellcat and a cuda! havent taken the STR to the track yet!

 

Very Nice,why dont you take it to the track and let us know what it does!!
Like they say
Bullshit stops when that green light drops..

By the way thats my buddys SRT with custom build 700hp dyno build and I beat him every time with my stock Jag,,

Power isnt everything,,driver is a bit..

 

.

 

Haha. Sweet!
Don't mess with Texas!

 

Yes Sir!!

 

Your drag radials really help with the 60' times. I would love to try a set but don't want to end up breaking something in the drive train.

I have had a few 60' s quicker than that on street tires (1.756 is my best) but I am usually around the 2 second mark unless the track has been prepped properly.

 

I can help you tune it! My recently ECU tuned Xf-R does under 12 sec , this is even with a slower 60 ft time due to wheel slip, And my older 08 Xkr convertible( thus havier) does mid 12 on higher altitude tracks here in Cali , would be at low 12s near sea level tracks

 

Thanks Alex, but gonna wait a while,,money is tight right now,due to covid I havent had much work since March (sound engineer for large events) and doesnt look like its gonna change anytime soon.

 

I hear you ! Im on the same page. Had property management business here for short term rentals, got wiped out when fkng scam Covid hit...

 

I wanted to ask if you mopped the Mopar...... I kinda figured you did!

 

what is the technique to launch the XKR????

 

It all depends on the state of your tires and amount of grip you have.

 

can you use the trick where you sink the brake pedal by switching to park or neutral and blipping the throttle? i found that worked on a CVT so i figured any automatic with a torque converter would let you do it but i'm not sure i want to experiment...

 

Pull around water box
Back into water
Make sure traction control is off
click paddle to 1st gear
Hold brake and give half throttle to get tires spinning
Give enough throttle to keep tire spinning but not enough to hit limiter(this is hardest part)
let go brake and keep spinning slightly but let tires catch
pull up to line and hold brake and bring throttle to 1500rpm
On last yellow floor it and hang on..
If you wait for the green light you will already be way behind..
Pretty much it..

 

I got tons if these on my 08 XKR
