1slow06SSS Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) guy from the neighborhood has a 2010 yukon denali. regular size. full cat back exhaust, k&n drop in, 93 octane programmer tune. we cathc a light the other day and he smirks and says, lets see what happens. i said ok. light goes green. i lay into it steady... hit the white line and lost traction. he pulled right from the get-go. i stayed in it til i buried my speedo. he was atleast 5 lengths ahead. his hardest pulling point was between 50-90mph, then it went to less of a pull...... key word being less, but him still pulling! .... im starting to wish i bought something with a 6.2... or maybe i'll daily drive my camaro for moments like these....

Guest JasonHensley22 Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Is a 6.2 truck faster than our sss'? I know they have more power but with less weight and AWD i don't really know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueAKSSS Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Is a 6.2 truck faster than our sss'? I know they have more power but with less weight and AWD i don't really know He was driving a 2wd ss and lost traction so the Yukon Denali pulled him good is what it sounds like I'm guessing a AWD SSS vs the Denali would be a different story.

90zxdriver Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 hit the white line and lost traction. This is why I absolutely love my awd. Point the wheel where you want to go, hit the skinny pedal and hang on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super88 Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 ITS AWESOME, EVEN BETTER WHEN PEOPLE ROLL UP ON YOU AND THEY DONT KNOW ITS AWD! This is why I absolutely love my awd.

1slow06SSS Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 The Denali was Awd. His rear started shimme'ing like it was gonna break traction. The 6.2 is a beast. I'll see if I can catch him from a slow roll. The 3.73's make my truck fall on its face every shift. Maybe smaller rim tire combo to offset my gear is worth a try... but doubt it will change the outcome of the Denali winning. A 6.2 2wd sierra put down 375rwhp in stock form on the same Dyno I got my tune and numbers from... P.s... I like burn outs, donuts, sliding.... Awd is not an option for me.

shawnss Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 sorry to hear but those new 6.2s are a beast. if you want to wax him just throw a blower on the SS and go from there or heck even a lil 100 shot wet kit on it. just roll off then line then ones you catch traction throw the bottle at it and come screaming around him.

f1ss Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Those L92s are a great. Put them with a tune next to our trucks and goodbye. L92 swap for the win with some other goodies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devynpalfy Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 I agree i love my rwd ss nothing better than smoking the tires. Actually next time warm up ur tires a lil then give 'em hell. I have general tire grabbers directional, they get good traction dont have a traction problem unless i just floor it. But thats the fun part. Awd is for women.

I would def. do some simple mods if you want to keep up. As far as the SS being for women when they came out AWD was the only way to buy an SS.I like burnouts like the next guy but if I am racing I want my AWD. We are supposed to be a "family" lets not start ragging on our brothers rides or tastes. Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stg313 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 I wish I still had my SS so that I could line it up with my NNBS. I think my 6.2 might have it...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
