Finally in the 12's
Went to the track today to see how the truck would run with the addition of a trailblazer torque converter and 3.2 pulley. Unfornutatley I didn't change the vss to match the 26" slicks and hit the 125 mph speed limiter about 100' before the traps. The only other mods are the radix of course and a Corsa cat-back.
Before:
60' 2.03
1/8 8.64 @ 82.32
1/4 13.45 @ 101.3
After:
60' 1.82
1/8 8.177 @ 83.47
1/4 12.92 @ 102.51

Radix Noise In The Cab
I am contemplating a Radix. My wife's car is a Buick Park Avenue Ultra with the supercharged 3.8. I love that car. I like the very light whine when getting on it.
Talk to me about the noise of the Radix. When do you hear it and how loud is it?

Hey Blake, it was good meeting you and your dad out there today. You guys have a couple of awesome trucks! I hope I got your 12 second pass on video, not sure though. If I do, I'll post a link to it.

If you like the whine of your wife's care. You will fall in love with the Radix. It will be a lot louder and a lot faster. If you ease into the gas you will not hear it. Get on the gas a little more it whines a little. Wot and it screams. Unless you have an extremely loud exhaust, you won't be able to hear the exhaust when you stomp on the gas. It is a very addicting sound. Hope that helps.
