When I was young and foolish and my XJ was still stock('89 4.0, 5spd), I topped it out at 180km/h.
1989?? so you would have been 37? j/k.  |

I got my 1948 CJ2A up to 112km/hr. Remember when Scotty is telling the Captain that if he pushes her any farther she'll rip herself apart? |

I am sure I could get my Tj past 200km....... I just don't want to have to pay for the reapirs after I drop it out of a plane.
This got me to thinking. What is the terminal velocity of a jeep? I read this on wikipedia, it says a parachuter can hit 195 kph and could hit 320. Could a jeep hit 200? Who wants to donate their jeep for a test http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_velocityBut this math is beyond me, maybe someone smarter than me could figure it out |

When a Grand drives like a car, I don't think it counts against most sterotypical 2 door jeeps.

using this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_velocityand yes... i'm bored at work lol this is what i get ... if i did it right ... seems kinda fast *************************************************************** Vt = terminal velocity, m = mass of the falling object, = 1978kg (TJ with I6 and hardtop) g = acceleration due to gravity, = 9.81m/s² Cd = drag coefficient, = .55 p = density of the fluid through which the object is falling, and = 1.2 kg/m³ (at sea level) A = projected area of the object. = 2.963m² 1.750m (height) * 1.693m (width) = 2.963m² Plug all those in and you end up with 141.19m/s 141.19m/s is equal to 508.28 k/h So 508.28 k/h is the terminal velocity of a TJ falling nose down at sea level  |
