ENJOY THE VIDEO!
What's up RUclips!
on this episode we take my 1,000 horsepower Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk drag racing. At Milan Dragway for Livernois Motorsports & Engineering track rental.
We run into some pretty fast cars, including a built Explorer ST, Shelby Super Snake F-150, and a C8 Corvette

Rule number one at a dragstrip… if you break pull off to the side, so you don’t oil down the track and be “that guy”
Just a money pit, i barely drive my 01 9sec lightning anymore,because just like any other addictive hobby we want more, I decided i was going to stop at 9.9 9.8 , I’m blue collar and can’t afford to dump money into racing seasons anymore.
100%
You nailed it.
Id be happy with 9.8 …. For a week or two lol
Bud, we come into this world with nothing and leave with nothing plus our age doesn't get any better thus may as well enjoy yourself!
Lightning owner myself and a redeye but getting the Lightning's into the 9's you are already in that legendary group of dudes. I have a Kenne Bell 2.6, never tracked it but be happy with low 12's! (Also rather have an Eaton any day.)
Just gotta stop keeping up with the Jones' and be happy at a certain point. 9 sec truck is FAST! I just want to hit 10.xx in my G8 after boost lol.
@@TonyTheTruckGuyyou nailed it brother. Quit trying to keep up with the Joneses.
Looking to sell? 😂
Just seen an explorer ST on the road yesterday it was an ocean blue color and I must say it was BEAUTIFUL! Also anything with 1000 hp every time u hit the gas is like playing with fire bro There’s a 50/50 chance u could blow it up every single time. Especially running back to back to back like he just did. But sick video my boy you’ll comeback even stronger
I'm an old guy and the look in your eyes around 13:20 is a look I'm very familiar with. When I was young I spent a lot of time and a lot more money on street racing and running the roads. When I had mechanical setbacks it really got me down. So, try not to let it bring you down because it's going to happen. I mentioned being familiar with the disappointed look in your eye's, but one thing I'm not familiar with, is running a qtr. mile in the 9 second range. To me, that's incredibly fast. That should put a smile on your face.
Next time when you break on the track you should get it off to the side as early as possible to avoid more cleanup to the track
"1000HP".... "I'm not sure what happened".... "I may not be a smart man jenn'ay, but I know what high horsepower is" ~ F.Gump
LOL
You'll come back stronger bro💪🏾 I'm a fan brotha🙏🏾💪🏾
Appreciate that brother. 🙏🫡
Damn bro, brand new to the channel...... Hope all goes well for ya and you get it fixed! I love the track hawk, I think it's a bad ass SUV! Hope to see move vids with it!!!
Thank you.
Welcome to the channel.
We’re bout to turn this Trackhawk up even more.
What a beast! Love the way it accelerated away
It’s the tune !
Sipple is going to get ahold of me this week and let me know what caused it to break
"This could be it" Yep it was lol. Been there several times. The worst is when you drove it to the track 😂. Build back better so its a plus.
😂😂
Yea it definitely was it.
HOPEFULLY SIPPLE AND LIVERNOIS TAKES CARE OF OUR GUY 🙏
LOVE THE CHANNEL
Man I’m hoping
Thank you for the support 🫡
13:20 the look of defeat 🥺
100%
It knocked me down good
6:34 what a beautiful run thru 1st and 2nd!
Sorry to see this happen. I honestly think the best and only way for you to see a 9 on your current setup is to full send it in 1st gear. 2nd gear launch your 60ft is suffering. But then again after this transmission failure I don't blame you for not going full send off the line. All the best bro.
Thanks bro.
I’ve been unlucky with this thing for a while, gonna be switching things up soon.
The problem with first gear is it’s pretty much unusable at this power level.
It just blows the tires off, even on drag radials
Crazy! How a Ford Explorer put a lower time 1/4 mile than a Corvette wild times!! 😂
Haha! She is older, but I'm driving a 2008 Explorer.
Great video. Can’t wait to get back to Michigan and race at Milan again.
Thank you.
It’s a blast here now with the new owners.
Great runs ( just subbed) Hope everything works out for you. Ready to get my ST on track now.
Thank you.
Welcome to the family.
I’m really impressed what those ST’s are capable of with the 6 cylinder and twin turbos.
Paul is aiming to get into the 10s soon
Thanks for ur service 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Thank you for your support
🇺🇸🫡
Just some advice to help other racers and yourself. When you're doing a pass and something goes wrong.... Stop immediately and pull over. Although you didn't have a leak if you did you would have just spread it halfway down the track.
Go Diego go 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great runs love you're videos that new trans is going make a big difference 😊
Thank you, I need the motivation.
Hopefully it’s back soon so I can enter it into some AWD shootouts and 8th mile events
Never mess with a Ford Baby!!!
😂😂
MAN BUN, I can't take you serious.
Purple Heart, take that serious
Still can't take you seriously and don't try to hide behind the flag.
Glad to see you again 🤘
Welcome back! OG 🫡
Time for a pure stage 2 trans
He has MORE than a stage 2 Pure trans he has the billet input shaft which is what makes a Pure stage 2 a stage 3.
The reason I went with a Sipple transmission is because they have all the Trackhawk quarter mile records
@@TENNESSEETRACKHAWK I didn’t even know that lol
@@Cole_Dash Man can make it man can break it. My Clutched pulley failed. Less than 1% failure rate and mine failed so shit does happen.
Trans tuning is a skill that takes talent. Some ppl just have more talent than others.
BES Racing builds the best engines imo. Pure the best Trans. FORE the best fuel system.
Tuning is personal tho but it sux u gotta pay to have the trans taken out and sent back that will be several weeks at the earliest.
Its part of owning fast shit cant avoid it bro. Nice to see u out there getting some seat time tho.
You get free Recall Notices with both.
😂😂
He just came to stop in the middle of track!?!?! Roll to the side my dude lol… the look on your face… I felt your pain… hopefully all is good and not too expensive
I was in shock lol
But will pull off next time, hopefully I won’t have to again for a while.
@@Cole_Dash it hit me when it happened… hate to see it. You be back stronger than ever!! Stay up!!!
@@GODZLLA_ST Appreciate it brother.
I’m trying.
Damn - that's racing for you though. I haven't personally gone through it, but it's taken my brother years of patience here in Adelaide, Australia. From broken parts, to having no dragstrip, I feel for you. Chin up, and keep pushing!
Appreciate it mate.
I’m gonna keep on keeping on.
That super snake is super slooooow😂😂😂
That was half throttle.
Pretty sure the driver was in his 70s and that’s the fastest he’s ever driven it.
What don’t kill u make u stronger bro 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
🙏💪🫡
Send it!!!!…. To the shop 😂 😂 🤦🏾♂️ I feel your pain
😂😂
That hurt but she’s back now.
Time to send it!!!…..Again 😂
My 5.7 Pursuit charger is down RN as well keep grinding an your right this is part of the speed game we play
Sorry to hear that.
Unfortunately you’re right, just wish I could have this thing for longer than 2 months without it breaking down
Thanks for the motivation 🫡
Bro, it would have happened no matter what. It's built like a mo fo, the more you push it to it's limits and get the optimum performance the more it's likely to have a failure.
During one of the runs you had the most perfect and beautiful 1st thru 3rd shifts that I have ever seen!
Those newer Ford explorers are looking a lot better 👍
They are!
The trackhawk and whipple F150’s sound like they leave slow. Both I believe leave in second gear which would explain that. It’s too bad first gear isn’t available with traction. Oh well. BA none the less👍
A lot of people skip first gear and launch in 2nd at high power levels so I think you’re correct. They also don’t seem leave the line with boost which is a shame… on a stock one it can shave off a half second to 60 plus it’s easier on the drivetrain.
I always think the same thing.
I wish these could launch harder but even the fast Trackhawk in the world seems like it has a slow leave.
I don’t know if weight could have something to do with it.
@@S8ER 100%
It’s way easier drivetrain.
I did a 1st launch when I first got it back and it was completely unusable, all four tires spinning.
@@Cole_Dash I figured that was the case… I’m still completely stock and it’s violent as hell on the drivetrain. I can’t believe these things don’t break more often.
@@S8ERYup me too.
A lot of people give Mopars a hard time but they’re heavier than everything else and still compete and hold up pretty to the abuse.
More trackcrap to clean off the strip!
😂😂
Don’t be a hater
Those ZF transmissions crack off shifts like rounds in a gun!!!!!!!
But ya have to build um for 1000 HP.
Sorry about your trackhawk I’m glad to find your new channel whenever you can do you think you can upload any POV Night Or Day Drives with no commentary like a ASMR And I hope your channel grows bigger than the last one 🤜🏼🤛🏼
I’m glad you found it.
I got you on the POV ASMR drives
Just give me some time to get it back up and running right.
Here’s my opinion for those who may know more or less than me.
The Hellcat motor, like many Dodge/MOPAR creations was/is an afterthought. They created a massive engine that creates great power, however sustainability was not a priority. The cooling system is trash and therefore these engines/vehicles are more “Show Off” pieces than “Driver’s Cars”.
Need to get ahold of that towing service. Let us down again, not good
100%
AAA owes me 300 dollars
That thing is rolling hopefully you'll get it back soon and strong so you can get that 9
Yes it was.
It will run 9s, even if I have to throw a 300 shot of nitrous at it
I just traded my 23 TRX for a 20 Trackhawk. I enjoy your content and hope you stick with it.
Nice trade.
2020 is the lowest production year for the Trackhawks.
What color exterior and interior did you get?
@@Cole_Dash Sting gray and black for the interior. I would’ve preferred a red interior but I’m very happy I landed on a clean, low mile, one owner Trackhawk. I plan on doing a Whipple, axles, exhaust and calling it good.
@@WheelmanMike Nice.
That Sting Grey is a rare color too.
Whyd you trade the trx?
@@WheelmanMike why did you trade the TRX? I have a 17 Jeep SRT i want to get into a trx soon
You forgot about June😁you'll make it brother. I love those Jeeps they're friggin crazy! Thanks for sharing and glad I found ya to subscribe 💯👍
Lol yea skipped right over June, good catch.
Thanks for subscribing 🫡
@@Cole_Dash I couldn't help but notice your license plate. Just wanted to say thank you for your service to freedom of the 🌎👍✌️🤙🇺🇲🇺🇸 Respect my friend 💯
I like the worried look on his face 😂😂😂 hope you got deep pockets boy 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Don’t worry I do
Ca-ching$$$$
How were you waiting 3 hours, why didn't Paul tow you to a shop
I offered!
Long story short AAA let me down.
Don’t get down on yourself.
This stuff happens with racing.
Sipple is a great company, they will take care of you.
100%
Just gotta roll with the punches.
That's a lot of power on a heavy awd lunched vehicle. Hopefully you can get a beefed up transmission. Heard in your other video you've got a 6 speed S550. That car should be fun and could get into high 8's pretty easily probably.
100%.
The weight hurts these things.
And yes, the Mustang has a built T56 Magnum XL from Tick Performance, rates for 1,700hp.
That was supposed to be my fast vehicle but things happened and the Trackhawk got the attention and money
What's going on sir been watching all your videos sorry to hear about the transmission I didn't know you knew Fletch he is my Big brother my brother Tell him they Nate asked about him keep up the good work sir 💯
Thanks Nate
This stuff happens with racing.
Unfortunately it will never get easier.
I’ll tell Fletch you were asking about him.
Brotha! What happened to the other channel? Thought something happened to you bro. Glad I found this one 👍🏾💯
Hey! Welcome back OG
Glad you found the new channel.
It’s a long story of what happened to the old channel.
Here’s the video,

@@Cole_Dash 💯 still here for the journey 🫡 wishing the best
@@GAMRMNTS2Appreciate that brother, it was hard to delete the other channel and lose all of you.
But hopefully the real ones find their way back.
You want to play You gotta pay 💰💰😊❤
100%
I need a sugar momma 😂
*1:40** Lol, what was that??? I take off like that from a light.*
Its stock 🤷♂️
For real, that attempt at a burn out I bet smelled really good. Nothing like a freshly glazed clutch to start the day.
I’m pretty upset that this happened bro, this is the most frustrating part of owning high horsepower cars. I know you’ll have this fixed in no time!
Me too.
I was ready to sell it.
Appreciate your support 🫡
Thinkin twice about modifying my Redeye now lol….. maybe just keep it stock
Lol yea I try to warn people that this can happen, not always but sometimes it does.
Be careful with modifying that Redeye 2.7L supercharger.
😂😂 why yo face look like that! Then u turned the camera off! 😂😂
😂😂😂
That’s the look of heartbreak
Bad deal bro it’s always something going fast costs it will be interesting to see what failed on that transmission good luck guess it’s mustang time gotta buy some merch to help and support great video as always…👍👍👍
100%
Mustang time.
Should hear back from Sipple by the end of the week.
Might of been something with the planetary
imagine a cop w an explorer st from here
I wouldn’t be running lol
Don’t give up on the track hawk , it does have potential it can and will hit those numbers you’re looking for 🔥💪🏼 I know the track will come back harder and better than ever ! Stay up brotha turn your negatives into Positives! :)
Thanks brother, I needed that.
I’ve been through a lot with this Trackhawk, but I know it has the potential to be great.
Already bought more parts for it to be even faster.
Damn man shitty feeling but gonna come back stronger and hit the numbers you want 💪🏼
Appreciate you brother.
The comeback is gonna be unreal
You don’t think that new tune had anything to do with it ?
I can’t say for certain but I wouldn’t think so.
@@Cole_Dash well I think it’s the tune. You have it all on video. You uploaded that new tune and it took out the transmission
Need a ford🎉
Got one already
The good old dodge quality
Yessir.
Making 5,400 pound SUVs faster than sport cars since 2018.
💯
🙏 🫡
Damn man. Sorry about the bad luck. If you ain’t breakin parts you ain’t racing! It will be interesting to see what the diagnosis is.
Thanks man.
Unfortunately that’s the truth.
I should know by the end of the week.
That yellow vette ok? 😂
What do you mean?
@@Cole_Dash seemed like the clutch was slipping or something when it did the burnout idk
@@AJYZF1R2010Could have been.
Those c8 corvettes clutches seem to be a weak point.
But my boy Fletch was sending it, that was something like his 5
4th pass in under an hour
@@Cole_Dash thing is sick
I really mess with the dodge lineup in general, but they're too variant in terms of them lasting or always breaking...some can run strong with 1000hp or move for a long time without complications just like srt riqs hellcat, but others either have broken supercharger's, engine ticks, and run into constant transmission issues/replacements back to back when making over 900hp+...genesis are the same way...some are reliable, but my 5.0 can barely make it without trans issues..literally on my 4th one in 2 years..🤣
100%
That’s what we get with factory mass production
Cant point fingers at anybody. Things happen at the track no matter how much money you throw at it or how good your tuner is. Things will break.
Drag racing is a expensive sport because parts break and motors blow up.....that will never change...break it...fix it! ......go's on and on forever.....................😊
Well said.
Still a tough pill to swallow
Time to 10r80 swap that explorer
Should of been factory. They always shorting something.
Bro you can order that at Oriellys. I have to wait 2 weeks for 4 spark plugs at 57 bucks each to have them made.😂
If I’m not mistaken, I could’ve sworn Daniel had a superfast six second mustang so I wouldn’t know why there is any doubt on which car is fast
Daniel who?
What are you talking about?
Also, I’ve ran both livernois and zfg on same set up on my ST …consistently .3 to .5 faster on every run, with the trans brake launch it was .61 faster on its slowest difference
* ZFG was the better times
Not trying through shade at livernois at all.. great guy, highly intelligent , just giving you some insight to my experience
Sounds like we should line em up 😉
@@PJester I’m in Connecticut! Also, after reviewing what I posted… I’m a total idiot… I am comparing an e30 tune from livernois to an e50 tune from zfg… that would explain a difference in times like that.. for some reason I thought I ran an e50 from livernois… but nope.. so that comparison is not fair at all.. especially with crp stage 5 turbs.. the more E you throw at these the harder they pulllllllll… I just got some revision back from 93 tune.. gonna upload my 0-60 on 93.. Adam thinks with my build we can get to 3.5sec on 93.. bout to find out!!
@GODZLLA_ST that would be awesome, sub four on 93 is great! You're right, though. These things really like E up to about E60. Anything after that is a verrry small difference. I love my livernois tune, any zfg guys are welcome to come out and run it! 😁
Never seen a car brake down this much, hopefully it’s not to expensive to fix
That’s my luck.
I swear god is testing me
What happened to his other channel?
I made a video about it.
You might of already seen it.
love the vids bro
Thanks bro
I appreciate it
What’s the approximate labor cost to diagnose and replace the 8HP, if that’s the problem? Shop time seems like it varies greatly from shop to shop. Would be nice to know when you are getting ripped off.
Good question.
i think it depends greatly on your relationship with the shop.
But I will let you know what Livernois Motorsports charged me in a future video.
Stay away from Livermore dude…they are about to take you for an expensive ride…
They have always taken care of me but gotta pay to play.
I’ve been down this road you’re going down, not with livernois, but with another shop. You see the red flags but just can’t come to terms with the red flags because they have “helped” you. I’ve been there. I’m telling you, deep inside you know they are taking you for a ride. A built trans should last for a while especially in a track hawk if tuned properly. Check out rsp track hawk or a track hawk tuned by Barth or rsp. You do what you feels is right but don’t get taken for a ride. Do your research
@@TR99FRC Appreciate it brother.
Big changes coming soon
@@Cole_Dash I hope you do well man!
@@TR99FRCI love reading these comments about always blaming the shop and giving them a bad wrap. I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but if you are going to take any high performance vehicle to a shop to do modifications to push the limits of its potential, then you have to understand what risks are involved. Most of the time customers walk into a shop and either have a half ass done build they can’t finish themselves or they have deep pockets and ideas about how they want to make their shit fast. Most don’t have a clue what it takes, yet they’re the ones collecting parts based off internet racers comments and sponsor Ads… its like you want to go buy some fireworks and when its not good enough, you decide to go buy some dynamite and blow your hand off. Who’s fault is that? The one you bought fire works from or the place that sold you the dynamite??? Lol try again. Now given that the stuff could be defective right out of the box. That’s true. But its not like you didn’t understand the risks involved. If you want something done right, you gotta put in the time and do it yourself. That goes with anything. I don’t agree with blaming any business that A Customer goes to for help, simply because of their lack of knowledge to get it done themselves. If they broke their end of the agreement, then sure, its fair game. But these high performance engine fails are just shameless
Too many hard runs on a summers day. Something was bound to happen
Ford can tow you back home lol😅😅😅😅😅
Lol
Yea the Car making more power and constantly winning is probably going to blow up first. It's called math. The haters are just born to cry. Mopar pisses off haters. I'll stick with mopar instead of ending up like the hater trolls
You should build the mustang that would be fun race with my zl1 got the track hawk back tonight and it is perfect sorry again about your track hawk keep us posted let us know what happens
I thought about building the Mustang a lot.
I would ideally like to get another vehicle for strictly drag racing.
Should hear back from Sipple by the end of the week
@@Cole_Dash I want to do a restomod for my next ride
No wonder why it blew up! Livernois 😂 they annihilated Kevin Van Voris’s hellcat motor many times. Not a great place for a Hemi. The issue is they way over Rev these motors to get that 1000 hp
People have to get it through their stupid heads dodge is not good quality ram is owned by fiat because dodge gave ot such bad quality and the other vehicles aren't much different. Just buy Ford.
They may not be the best quality but they are a lot of fun and have a lot of potential to go fast.
And I own a Ford already.
Every manufacturer has their problems
A lot of these mooar owners wonder why they break all the time but what other car do you know that you can get 700+ hp for under $100k? It's because they build them so cheap. Why you would even want one? I dunno. Just build a car and you'll save some money.
Hate this for you bro 🤦🏾♂️. I’m glad you not selling it though. You put so much work and money into the Hawk. That’s why I didn’t get heavy into my build yet either. I have crazy anxiety when my car is away from me bro lol.
Bro I hate this feeling, it’s the 3rd time I’ve had to put it on a tow truck… guts me every time.
I always tell people to be careful how far you modify these because stuff can happen and it gets really expensive quick.
The problem is they’re so much freaking fun at high horsepower.
@@Cole_Dash your a good sport about it though. Usually people start crying and blaming the performance shop when things go wrong. But you know what you got your self into. U a good dude bro
@@Tracklyfe_T I try to be, it’s tough sometimes because it gets frustrating.
But everything happens for a reason
Just gotta have faith and keep pushing forward.
@@Cole_Dash Bro I done dealt with some performance shops in the past with my camaro & the whole thing just turned me off when modding. They take forever to get to the car & when something goes wrong and they already got the money, your ass is not a priority and you right in back of the line to god knows when. & the shops I went to have horrible Communication. Some of these shops are un real smh. At least your shop is quick to get you in & try to help you.
@@Tracklyfe_TI feel you 100%
Livernois is a great shop to work with.
Still wish I could do everything on my own.
Just don’t have the knowledge and don’t want to mess anything up.
That is typical of a Jeep Chrysler RAM Dodge vehicle!
Nice decision not to burn any bridges!
Yea it was hard not to let my emotions the best of me.
But like Forrest Gump said it happens
That Shelby needs a driver mod!
I’m pretty sure that’s the fastest that Shelby truck has ever gone and will ever go.
He’s an older guy (60s or 70s I think)
Man I’m sorry bro that sucks I know exactly how you feel sucks cause your like me and have to toys that were fun good daily drivers and now there tow truck queens
Thanks bro.
Hurts every time
@@Cole_Dash sure does
Always pull over and stop immediately when you break on the track. Saves the crew a lot of cleanup time if you scatter.
👍
Drag off road, forget slicks your 4wd
Lol
This thing would rip with a 3 inch lift and some 35x12.5 mud tires.
The best thing to do is, stop racing. A lot cheaper. 😀😀😀😀
Lol
Very true!
I need that shirt big dog!! Link?!

It's don't matter what car or truck you have they'll let you down in other words vehicles are just let me humans they'll let you down in a second my motto not only do you not trust anything or anyone also don't believe 95% of what you hear an you'll do pretty good.
I'd go with another tuner. Hit up zhung ho
RSP is the best tuner for Trackhawks.
Heard good things about Z too though
Consider the Source!
I liked your video, at the end, though you gotta watch what you do repetitiously like slamming your fist into your hand 1 million times just trying to give you some criticism criticism builds character
Sipple don't have input shafts
I heard they put in billet input shafts
They do but they are out of em right now
@@clarencesmith35yahooAh I got you.
