I will be racing a friend in the near future, he has a 2005 SSR 6 speed. Looking at the spec sheets I shouldn't have a problem beating him. He is stock I have a 93 octane predator tune nothing else. Am I right? Any tips on launch rpm? I have the 5 speed stick GT.

you got that ****, that thing is HEAVY as hell. looking at it it doesnt seem like it would be all that heavy but they hid lead weights in the floor or some ****.

I think it will be close because they do have the ls2 in them although the are rather heavy
I predict you will win

The 2005 Chevrolet Truck SSR is a 2-door, 2-passenger luxury pickup, available in one trim only, the Base.

Upon introduction, the SSR is equipped with a standard 6.0-liter, V8, 390-horsepower engine that achieves 15-mpg in the city and 19-mpg on the highway. A 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is standard, and a 6-speed manual transmission with overdrive is optional.
