If someone has a better calculator for DA, please enlighten me. The mph wasn't the first argument, and the trap speed really isn't important to me. Ricers and roll racers look at trap speed because they can't get out of the hole for ****. I don't have that problem. And according to the DA calculator that I used, that I have also found to be widely used, I have a 12 sec stock truck at sea level.
PROVE me wrong.

Its funny to hear guys say mod for mod the TBSS can run with the jeep because I have never seen it and I always hear the opposite on the streets. There are so many modded SRT8 jeeps around here its ridiculous. About 2 months ago I watched a Heads,Cammed, Stall, Bolt on, Tuned TBSS vs a PWR Heads, Cam, bolt on, tuned Jeep SRT8 from a roll and a dig the jeep won by 2 cars every time. Especially from a roll.
Guys with TB's at car meets have even stated they needed bolt ons just to run with stock SRT8 jeeps so who knows...

I haven't even seen too many on the net. I know they are out there, but I said odds are I'll never be beat by one in my area. And no one disagrees about needing bolt ons to hang with a stock one, but mod for mod, the SS responds soo much better because we have a platform that's a lot more friendly to tune.
The key is simple, and never forget it...there is always someone out there faster than you.
I completely understand this statement...but for now, I'll take any SRT on in the area without fear.

and what area are you in?
Here is just a few of MANY in our area that runs low 10's at one of the slowest tracks around. Most that run like this have pretty much this same setup. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JasFLm_y1q8

I am not trying to pass my truck off as a 12sec rig. The only reason that was brought up is because AWDTBSS claimed that I would not touch his old truck. I was only trying to show that if we would have run at the same elevation then that wasn't true. By correcting DA with the time that he posted for his truck and the time I ran at my DA I proved him wrong. I don't really care if you sea leveler's don't believe in DA correction, you have that luxury since you can easily go to a sea level track and run in good air. Maybe some day when I have nothing better to do, I will go to a sea level track so I can get a cool timeslip. Eh probably not.

Trust me the SRT8 Jeep guys say the same thing about you Trailblazer guys. Its funny because I know guys with both.
Still seems like the jeep has the advantage mod for mod

Taken straight from the youtube description...
"Running a 12.85 @ 105.09 against a Snailblazer SS.
SRT Mods: Bwoody 4" Intake, Corsa Exhaust
TBSS Mods: IEatSRT Intake, 180º Thermostat, Exhaust, ECM Tune."
^^^LMAO
