Default Ran the Trailblazer SS today...

Well there was a charity race at NED today and because UPS decided to suck *** and leave my turbo in Kentucky, I had to run the 100% stock Trailblazer AWD SS. Way too slow. Best run was: 14.3 @ 97.8mph. I almost fell asleep during the run. Ya, then I called Don immediately

I guess it's a matter of perspective. 14.3 is a rocket ship compared to most SUVs. If I ran my wife's Envoy, you could time it with a sun dial.

Its not bad, some have gone high 13s bone stock in good air. AWD extra weight will hold you back a little. Get it tuned!!

Nothing wrong with those numbers out of a stock TBSS, especially an AWD one!
