OK, so I've brought you seven classic Mopar muscle combos in a row, now for a pair of street freak SUVs.

#19 Greg Huizenga Red 83 Jeep Cherokee
Day 1: 11.54-119.0
Day 2: 11.55-119.7
Day 3: 11.53-120.2
Day 4: 11.72-117.2
Day 5: 11.70-117.9
Final Average: 11.612-118.80

Chevy 10 chassis, 6.1 Gen 3 Hemi with a 6 speed stick, and a small turbo...sure that's a build we've all considered many times! Now, it's a Hot Rod Drag Week proven combo.

#18 Derek Mueller Silver 77 Toyota Land Cruiser
Day 1: 9.95-129.0
Day 2: 12.32-107.5
Day 3: 10.54-117.0
Day 4: 12.39-109.7
Day 5: 11.88-110.4
Final Average: 11.421-114.76

"Let's build a cool 4x4 Land Cruiser for...sand drags, mud pit racing? Back woods off roading, or heck, maybe even drag racing!"
"All of them."
"OK, done! We have a clean sheet of paper, what are we using for power?
"I've got a stroked small block Mopar I'm fond of!"
"Hmm, can we add Nitrous?"

How does a conversation like that even take place?

Hot Rod Drag Week is famous for punching guys straight it the mouth on Day 1. Many crumble and throw in the towel, but if you can overcome that first setback, usually the body blows and jabs later in the week don't seem as bad. After transmission failures, valve train issues bring down competitors faster than anything and Derek dealt with the problem from 1100 feet into his first run until the very end of the week. Hopefully he will get that solved and bring the beast back for another go to show off it's true potential.
