Agreed. I remember seeing something about one guy who had a 1st gen SRT Jeep and lived in a city. He said his typical tank average was 8 - 9 mpg

He ran an M plate SRT4 Dodge Caliber and was ungodly quick in that too. He drove the SRT8 Jeep on the one lap and his day job often took him to some closed public road in Germany for testing cars, commonly known as the ring around Nurburg or something. How that guy can drive a car does not necessarily translate to how us mere mortals can drive.z31maniac wrote: Uhh, you should have seen what seen the Chassis engineers did with one of those around the track during One Lap of America a few years ago. Removed the interior except the front seats and fitted Mopar springs, and 305 wide Michelin Super Sports at all 4 corners. It was laying ridiculous lap times at Hallett. As for SUV utility? Meh, 99% of them never go off-road anyway.Pretty sure I saw that one at a track day at Waterford Hills in 2011-2012 or so. Personally, I dig fast SUVs. The only SUV thing they don't do as well is go off-road, and I'm not an off-road guy. I know the first generation of JGC SRTs couldn't tow because they had center-mounted tailpipes, but I don't think that's an issue with the newer ones.
Oh, yeah, I remember that guy. He was freakishly quick in a couple of cars that were not exactly class ringers. There was the Caliber, but also a Chrysler Crossfire.
