Heading north at about 6:00 or so I passed it around Rt 3 and it re passed me at the 93 split as I was getting off to go south on 93. Kind of a weird loop around each other as traffic was a bit heavy and I wanted to get to the right lane. I was in my 924s (dark green) What a GREAT looking jeep!!!!! And the tow rig was not to shabby either.

It probably looked like all the other autox Jeeps you see on the road.

As JG said, "believe the hype. It's a piece of art"

"What hath God wrought? Think about this: no matter what kind of car you brought to the challenge, you just got your ass handed to you by a Jeep and a K-car." Thus spake JG, on the subject of the 2013 autocross segment.

As long as we're quoting me, I also mentioned that if you ran slower than 16.8/81mph in the 1/4 mile you got beat by my Volt (I'd have kept going but that was the longest extension cord I could find).

haha nice, that was jeff pulling her back home after our local bmw autocross out at devens airforce base.

turns out she's a berkeleying handfull (i.e. kinda useless) in a cold wet autocross now that she's turbo'd and with the wide slicks. we might bring her back for the last event of the season in two weeks if anybody local wanted to check it out, but it's not certain yet. actually i'm hoping instead i can convince one of our customers to let me dual drive his 400+whp Noble M12

I love the old AMC paint scheme:

This was our inspiration.

We painted like Mark Donohue’s 1971 AMC Javelin Race Car with a few small changes that worked with the body lines of the Jeep.
