Default 16.49@82.87 in 2002 Tahoe Z71

So, I decided to take my mom's 2002 Tahoe Z71 (stock of course) to the track tonight.

All the runs were right in the 16.4-16.5 range on some 2.4-2.5 60 ft's.

Not too great, but good enough to smoke my friend's F-150



But anyway, do these ETs sound about right for the car? The raceweight was like 5510 lbs.

It was pretty fun racing a stock truck compared to the f-body. (no worries or traction issues) Although Im already thinking about adding a converter, UPD, Corsa catback and some LTs

-Alex

That's not too bad. White1 on here has a Tahoe with a Radix, Converter and boltons and he says he smokes Lightnings and 03 Cobras He could give you some advice on getting that ho moving.

My 2wd Tahoe turned 15.99 it's an LT and weighes about the same.Radix cured the problem,now it kills Lightnings.The 4wd probably hurt your 60' times,by not allowing the tires to spin,stock 5.3s don't make a lot of lowend power and a little wheel spins puts them into the powerband sooner.

My Yank Truck Thruster 3000 converter dropped my Tahoe ETs 6 tenths with no other mods!

4WD adds like 300 lbs.

There's the difference in ET right there.

My 99 OBS Tahoe did 16.3 stock with 3.08's but it's 5100 raceweight.
