fiatslug87 Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I think they're running 1/8mile tracks. :rotfl2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Even with a 401, 10.xx in a Comanche would be tough. I used to race with a guy who had an original 1969 AMX 390 4-speed. It took trick shocks, slicks, headers, and distributor work to break 14 seconds with that car. A Comanche is too light in the rear to ever hook up for a 10-second quarter mile. I'm inclined to agree it must be an eighth mile track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoloCamo Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 No, it's legit....Very legit. It's Jacobs over at Jeeps unlimited and Jeep Forum. Good guy that definitely knows his stuff. I've been following his build for a while :drool: And honestly, come on guys, an 1/8th mile track? Stock 4.0 MJ's would have zero problems running low 10's in the 1/8th mile. A Comanche is far from too light in the rear with the proper suspension setup and tires out back which you can clearly see he has. The Comanche is not a bad vehicle to set up for the drag strip, as evidenced here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car RamRod Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 you guys are nuts if you really think any of the following (not you sarcastic folk): -that's an 1/8th mile track -an amc 401 can't make a good deal of power -a pickup truck can't hook up that's a badass truck right there.... give credit where credit is due.
