It's okay to be mad that your TBSS can't compete with similarly modded SRT8 Jeeps. Maybe you shouldn't have spent all of your inheritance on that GTR then you would have had enough to buy the superior SRT8 instead of settling for the trailblazer.
If I wanted to drive an overpriced maxima, I could. But I don't like them. Can your ego handle that?

That's crazy. All these claims of 14 second TBSS. I would sell my ****. I think the SLOWEST pass I have ever made in my truck is a 13.8. I have even ran a best of 13.6 with just the catback and have ran a couple 13.3s with a catback and LS1 e-fans

@Steve
I may have come off a little strong before, but I still maintain that it takes more than a stall to even up the two trucks. That's really the only thing that I was trying to get across.
Nice. From what I hear the disadvantage of not having the awd launch is more than made up on the top end with less drivetrain loss. On a side note, I looked up the DA from your timeslip. -500' damn! I would love to get one run in with a DA like that. Haha I envy you guys that get to race in good DA.
Any other mods in the works for the truck?

It has a 4" CAI now and I will have a small converter in it (since it is my tow vehicle) by the time I go back to the track. I just like to go to the track and have some fun with the local Honda guys and stuff with the truck. I'm going to leave it mostly stock. I like the idea of having a nice, quite, and tame vehicle since the Camaro is the exact opposite.

I'm 19dirtybird99 on tbssowners. And yeah, if i hot lapped it it slowed down a few tenths. I would have to let it cool off and roll it through the staging lanes if i wanted to make a good pass. This was in the Houston heat though, probably would have ran better in 40-50 degree weather.

As for your buddy's SRT8, you must be in pretty high DA for him to have every bolt on possible and only run 13 flat. Hell, I run 13.4's in +4500 DA and I only have a CAI, muffler delete and a tune. There are still a number of bolt ons left to put on my truck.
Also, what color is your buddy's Jeep? The joke on the JeepSRT8 forum is that the black ones are the fastest ones.
