i raced against a KB trail blazer SS and he ran 13.5 or something.. my stock GT and KB trail blazer is very close.. dead even.\
stock ones should be around mid 14s. but i heard that with chip they bump like 40hp.
if you can drive, seriously you will get his money!

There have been stock TB SS's hitting mid 14s and some hitting mid 13s(weather mainly the factor), probably just like the mustang GTs. And like other people mentioned, there are plenty of guys with bolt ons and tunes hitting 12s.
In case you guys wondered, I have an 06 TB SS. My best time at the 1/8 was a 9.301 with a crappy 2.3 60' @ 77mph. Qualcomm inSan Diegoisn't known for good traction. I think I'll be heading there this friday tho to see if I can better my times since the weather should be a little colder and I have a CAI now (no tune yet)than the last time I was there. Maybe ill see some of you guys out there.
Oh and they aren't that expensive, I got my loaded 06 with leather ( no nav) for 29,900, it had a msrp of 36k.

I saw what i think was a stock one running 13.9's at 102 or so, which means with a launch he'd be mid 13's..
fast, but im sure theyre exspensice too, into the 40K range or more...

no way dude. I don't even think there are any KB SS's, if there are it would of been something custom.. either way, a TB SS with a Magnacharger and the magnacharger tune went 13.0 at 107 I think. With a stall converter and a few other supporting mods it would hit mid 12s easily.

RE: trail blazer ss
I believe you, but something must have been up with his truck if he was only hitting a mid 13 with the supercharger considering thats the time most guys with mail order tunes are getting. oh well
anyways, to the thread starter, I have no idea how fast your car is with all your mods, but I'm sure you wouldn't have a problem beating a stock AWD SS. I'd say the majority of TB SS's are tuned by now tho so you never know.
heres a vid of a TB SS(i think it was stock or close to) vs a 04 stang GT with some kinds of mods. Good race till higher speeds.

RE: trail blazer ss
they are pretty fast actually- one day i was driving and i saw one in the lane ahead of me with a big *** chevy sticker on the back window (pisses me off) so i floored it to catch up with him and he saw me coming in his mirror and put the hammer down as well- i was pulling on him but it was slowly- they have some ***** (425 hp stock i wanna say)

TonyGXP ran 13.4 @ 102mph in a bone stock 2wd SS... I wouldn't get to confident if i was racing one in a bone stock mustang (save for a termi)
