BlownChevy 07-05-2005, 01:39 PM The RCSB will run 13.90 @ 99 or so. I dont remember what the Tahoe ran, however I would imagine it will be someplace in the 14's. Run him for the fun of it. zippy 07-05-2005, 02:01 PM the tahoe i'd expect around a 14.7 or so. a really good one may run a 14.4. TXsilverado 07-05-2005, 02:11 PM i raced him once before i got my exhaust and i had a 87 hypertech tune. at 90mph his rear bumper was at my front tires. since then i have put in a cutout, changed intakes, got a nelson tune and i have a shaners S2 coming in around the midddle of next week. it was the top end where he got me last time. i feel like my truck is alot stronger up top now, but i lost a little down low. not much though. white1 07-05-2005, 02:23 PM whoop up on him then :devil: :drive: BeefTip 07-05-2005, 02:23 PM run him and find out, im curious about the outcome. What are you trapping?

Better make sure he has not converted it and added boost :devil: TXsilverado 07-05-2005, 11:04 PM he has no clue wtf he's doing when it comes to adding power to it. he didnt know what i meant when i mentioned changing pullies and getting a nelson tune. he just wants to put gas in it and drive it :bang: wander if i can talk him out of his radix :) i could just steal it and he wouldnt even know the difference mickey03L 07-07-2005, 10:33 AM Havnt see one runnin round here yet. Id love to see how they run. The appearance package they have is a nice look Gmc² 07-07-2005, 08:49 PM hey tx you should beat him, you may remember the pewter sierra you raced on the gtown cruise. i think that was you. Bc that was me, i have a pre radix magnacharger w stock tune stock everything else and we were even, givin the added wieght of a tahoe you should have him TXsilverado 07-07-2005, 11:21 PM i was wandering who that was in the forums....what size motor do you have? your truck should run WAY stronger than that! i was hoping you would go to the track afterwards because i was weighed down bigtime. i had the passenger, my system and 2 heavy ass rims and tires in the bed of my truck for the track later that day. i also have the extended cab over your single cab. when you said that you have a supercharger i was like holy crap! i almost didnt beleave you because theres no way i shoulda been able to sit next to a scsb supercharged truck weighed down like i was. hell i shoudnt be able to do it at track weight...what else is done to your truck besides the charger? i was looking for you in another thread but you never responded.... mwalls54 07-07-2005, 11:21 PM well i would imagine it would turn high 14s at best. Is it 2wd? TXsilverado 07-07-2005, 11:23 PM yeah their 2wd Gmc² 07-08-2005, 10:50 AM yeah its a 5.3, i bought it used w 50000 miles, one owner he worked for a dealer. It has a side mount magnacharger and an exhaust, stock headers airbox everything else is stock, im getting a nelson tune soon and pacesetter LT's that should REALLY wake it up. it seemed slugish on the cruise, maybe i was runnin a little hot from driving all day. i figure im low 14's i beat 99-04 gts and L's are still beatin me though. maybe im slower than i thought, nice truck though white1 07-08-2005, 11:17 AM The new issue of trucks has the Joe Gibbs Hoe runnin 14.65 for the 2wd. It doesn't give the mph though. Hope that helps. |
