It was either an R/T or the guy was playing with the autostick. An SRT-8 could pass a Jeep SRT-8 from a roll, your car could not.

Enjoy it, you beat the driver. A 97-100mph trap speed car due passengers vs. a 108-109mph trap speed car with 1 passenger. Go figure.

well they had 4 200-250+ pound people in there. thats why i won. i would not bullshit. i got him on the weight, he even went on 2 instead of three and i passed his ass big time. last we were going from a 20mph roll and that tbss is fast at that range. and we only went to 80ish so buy 100+ he would have gained on me.

I guess 1000lbs of fat would make the difference.

Funny, plenty run 12s.

Why don't you use yours and look at trap speeds, not ETs?

trap speeds and et's don't allways go hand and hand. weel spin and driver can have a lot to do with it

Yes, we all know that. We're talking about an automatic transmission and a car that just needs a 1.9 60ft to run 12s.

Dang Duuuece, he said there were a bunch of fatties in there. The SRT-8 driver was an IDIOT for racing with all that cellulite weighing his car down.

I had an 01 Cobra, and got my ass TOOK by a Lightning b/c I had my buddy Brian (400lbs) and Chester (200lbs) in the car with me (another 200 lbs). NOSE OVER BOG out of the whole. It was embarrassing.

Needless to say, since then everybody gets the fk out when its time to race!

Thing is ,he thought he was racing a regular TrailBlazer . And thought he could take it with all the gut onboard.

He just got a lesson in whats available out there the hard way.

I was lined up with one yesterday and it ran 15.12 @ 92 I dont know if it was AWD or RWD. I thought it would have been a little quicker. Of course if it was brand new it will get quicker.

Damn sad if that was an AWD SS. I could do better than that with 4 250lbs passengers in my car.....
