  1. Now I have a decision to make....

    in Off-Topic/General

    Posted

    because that is waaaaaaaay different then the silveradoss with cloth and single exhaust.

    Another dissapointment for me was how loud the interior is ... the road noise is unbearable ... I keep meaning to get down to the dealership to see if I have a problem or if they all are this loud ... air leaks in high winds ... and back windows sound like they leak ... but it could be just that I am used to driving pickups my whole life ... never a small SUV

    Yank the interior out and install some dynamat if it botheres you too much.

  6. Those Pesky Titan Guys

    in Street

    Posted · Edited by shreveportSS (see edit history)

    About 4 months ago I was rolling up to a stop light and I see in the other lane a Titan with his list of kills on his tailgate. I thought, ok lets see what he has. I threw him a rev and he was allover it. He even jumped the light, but I blew right by him and left him in the dust. I figured he was a 15 sec. truck. I had a tune only and had run a 13.7 best back then.

    Today, I am coming out of town headed towards the house and I see this Titan pull up next to me. Same guy. His friend in the passenger side motions for me to roll the window down. He claims he has beaten every TBSS he ran against and wants to prove it to his friend. I just point down the road and say "on green". I don't think he had any mods since the last time we ran cause I really killed him. I slowed and he came up beside me and I asked him if he broke. :yellow_loser:

    He said I must have sprayed him or I was boosted. :shakehead: We were going about 45 and he floored it trying to run off from me, I just blew by him again before 65 and waved bye bye as I pulled away. I ran it up to about 140 just to prove my point.

    I don't think he will forget this time. :driving:

     

    Oh yeah,

    Disclaimer

    This race was done on a closed corse with professional drivers. :dunno:

  7. First Time Bracket Race

    in Strip

    Posted

    It is very addictive. I ran in a bracket race at my local track last weekend and won. I got $70 and a trophy. Last round I was against an S-10 running 7.40. I dialed a 9.11 and ran dead 9.11 with a 1.35 reaction time. I also ran against a bone stock Trailblazer SS 2wd before the racing began. I got him out of the hole and beat him to the end but he ran a faster time. I ran a 9.07, he ran a 8.99. I know he was about 2,000 lbs lighter but dang, he was stock.

    Sounds like you had fun.

     

    The TBSS curb weight on a 2wd shows to be 4450 dry. (no fuel/oil)

    Mine came in at 4775 with my fat ass and 1/4 fuel.

    8.99 in the 1/4 is about right for stock.

    I ran 8.72 my first time with tune only.

  12. One Bad Azz N/A truck

    Oh yeah, and that motor just punched out to 370". I think that would make it around a 6.0 or so. There's another guy with a 392" motor that still needs to run, he may see 11's..

    did hemiroid get his running yet?

    Johnny, Joey, That you? Brad's truck was running good. Looks like you were there till damn near sundown. (80* :P ) Head wind really sucked too. Nice meeting you guys! Hope to see you back to RRR again. Folks, I could hear the torque management and rev limiter kill his timing at 3/4 track. They will get it worked out though. :cheers:

  18. Truck Wont Start...Hmmm

    Are you saying there is nothing when you hit the key? Did you try to move the shift lever around, or try it in neutral instead of park?

    Did you leave the key in the on position when you jumped the solenoid?

    Fusable link?

    Neutral safety switch?
