MotorWeek takes the 1997 Jeep Wrangler TJ and puts it through the paces, not only off-road, but also, for some unknown reason, onto the drag strip too.

I remember being so doggone excited when the first TJ's were introduced! Wanted one real bad, but... Had kids at home then and had to have a bigger truck, not a cool little TJ. Our Jeep at the time was a Cherokee, made more sense for the family.

Still like those things! TJ's and Cherokee's both!

That video is really funny. It's a good thing dude had a helmet on when he took it for a 16 second quarter mile

 

Makes me nostalgic for my old TJ... especially the price.
