2000 XKR coupe at the Drags
 

All,
There was a Black 2000 XKR coupe that was Drag Racing at Portland International Raceway in Portland Oregon this past Saturday evening (July 28th). He was doing well until he raced a 1991 stock Corvette ZR1. He got beat but the Jaguar was running in the low 13 to high 12's. :D

That's awesome.....needs some video though!

Gotta love when nice cars show up at the strip...I'm the only Volvo there when I've been...looking to get back to the track again when the temps start to fall a little.

I wonder what work he has done.

Stock, the XKRs are the slowest of the "R" models.

That's too funny that this guy tomcat was on his n*ts and then the actual owner shows up.

Having a good laugh.
Aren't stock xk4's supposed to run the warter mile in like 15.6, seems wierd that it so fast.

RE: 2000 XKR coupe at the Drags
 

my car is the xkr with the supercharged engine. the standard xk8's do not have the supercharger. i am assuming that is the big difference in speed.

RE: 2000 XKR coupe at the Drags
 

Don't assume, that IS the difference! Stock XKR's don't runno 15.4! My 240sx runs that!

RE: 2000 XKR coupe at the Drags
 

The R stands for supercharged, an xk8 and an xkr are different cars.
But I read several people say there stock xkr ran like 15.4.

I just looked, cuz it was on another forum, and they were sayin there was somethin wrong because it was runnin slow. So yea 15 is prolly closer to my xk8's quarter mile time.

I watched Pinks once, and they had a porsche 911 turbo on the track I believe, and the dude lost to a GT mustang from the 90s. Too pathetic
