Im going to work after lunch and I see a TBSS coming on the road from the onramp going VERY FAST....he ends up behind me with traffic in front...

I want to see if he would notice me so I slow up a little...He rides my tail. I hit the gas and manuver through the nicely spaced traffic and he follows...Finally we both get clear.. I hit the gas and leave him behind trying to catch up....

Now we hit a light...Im thinking, I hope this guy follows me...he did...I immediately slow to allow him to get through the light.now he is behind me again...I hit the gas again leaving him trying to catch up..Then I had to turn right. un fortunately he didnt turn with me because it was a road that was well suited for a little drag racing......

Oh well...I hope to run into him some time in the near future so I can reassure him that it wasnt just a fluke...:D

Shouldn't much of a race at all if they are stock... GM had a cool idea, as did ford with thier lightning and now jeep.. it just doesn't have enough power to compete against you guys.

honestly, i'm beginning to see the kind of hurt an SRT-8 would put on a stock TBSS.

i just got an '08 JGC Overland 5.7L a few days ago and have been going easy during my break in, but my best friend and his TBSS AWD ended up next to me at a light last night and we couldn't resist...

maybe his reaction time is miserable but it seemed like a pretty close race to me

Yeah they are pretty damn slow trucks stock. At least compared to ours.

At least compared to ours.

This is the key quote. For an SUV, they are quick compared to other vehicles out there, just not against us. Stock for stock, of course.

The 4x4 are, run accross a 4x2 with a tune and its a different story, dont sleep on them.
