JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

The video above just demonstrates total stupidity on a road where a pedestrian could step out to see what is making all the noise. Obviously driving above the limit, with no thought to others.
The day someone steps out onto a road because they hear loud engine noise is a day they should be awarded the Darwin Award

I agree, I'd like to see what they run in the 1/4 against one another (at an actual dragstrip of course for saftey).

Also to the original poster, the video clip says your Hemi is a BOR 6.1, with Extreme Performance Stage 2. What exactly is the Extreme Performance Stage 2? Was that done over there in Dubai?

For any and everyone, in the video the road was very clearly dry, what is the impact on the drivetrain on slamming it into 4wd and mashing the skinny pedal on a 420hp hemi? It looked bad a$$, but I'd be afraid something would snap.
