i outrun my buddies stock 2WD TBSS, that goes 8.9's in the 1/8th, from a 40 roll when i had 800 miles on my car... i would expect you to walk the dog on a AWD TBSS... they are pretty slow

Of course a 3k lb car is going to have a huge advantage in a roll race. Why not line up from a dig?

It was an option in 2010 ..... the only factory option on the car . otherwise they were loaded ...rpd ....sunroof ect. Any other option besides G85 was done at the dealer..... dealer installed options.

For an SUV? They're fast. Gotta keep these things in perspective. I had a Buick with a 455 big block that was fast - in its day. Now it'd be a push to beat a mildly tuned Civic with a fart can exhaust! Its fully loaded with everything, and can rip off extremely respectable numbers - and sounding good doing it, too!

Exactly ...... they look good.... sound great ..... and can haul ass .....literally . The fastest stock TBSS ( according to youtube) went 13.3@103.9.... so basically 104MPH..... that pretty quick for most ..... and puts it right there with tuned cobalts. Big deal if you roll race one and beat it .... i haven't seen many drag strips that run you from a 40 roll lol

silverbullet. If it was a 2010 Mustang it would be the 4.6. The 5.0 didn't come out till the 2011 Mustang. Unless he swapped engines or something?

How bad did he smoke you ? I guess some of them have better gearing than others...an option from ford IIRC.

his was the automatic... umm he walked me... there was a steady pace of a gap between us down the 1/2 mile road we did it on. by the time we hit around 120 ish, he was already at the end of the road i was still about 10 car lengths behind him

cool story. i love those trailblazer ss's... what sucks is, JUST LIKE THE COBALT, theres a million 'base' models rolling around, at it takes the luster off the ss badge... like at any given light i can look in either direction and see 3 tb's or cobalt base models.. oh well
