Heh, Jeeps are one of the easiest vehicles to get to do a wheelie, what with their extremely short wheelbases and such.

 

[FuryShift]

How many jeeps have a powerplant like that though? :rockon:

 

[Calebp]

Oh yeah i know I mean, that is incredible right there. I guess I should say it's easier to make a jeep do a wheelie than a lot of other autos

It belongs to a guy off Jeeps Unlimited. This is a direct quote on the motor.

"My uncle owns this Jeep. It's running a 572 Hemi. It made 877 HP on a 90F day with 777 ft-lbs of torque naturally aspirated. The engine wasn't fully tuned the night of the video. It was in the Jeep for only 3 weeks prior to the videos. It can do 1.4 60 foots when he doesn't have to let off to prevent flipping over. It runs somewhere in the 9s. Probably high 9s. The owner is too afraid to do a complete 1/4 mile with it as it gets scary near 200 km/h. A while ago, back when it had only 600 HP. less traction and more weight, it ran 11.1 @ 121 mph. Now the Jeep is MUCH faster.
in our region it's the fastest street legal vehicule that I know of. His friends run high 10s and low 11s on street tires and they aren't even close to the Jeep "

I think they were overwhelmed with joy to wheelie a Jeep.
