Default Trailblazer Vs. s197

So I'm on my way homegoing down a 25mph and this guy ina trailblazer is all over my ****. We come up to a red light and as we roll up I rev to let him know I'm not happy with his tailing me. The light goes green, I goose it up to about 25-30mph and let out... this numb nut comes flyin up behind me and goes to pass me over the double yellow. I look forward and see no one coming so as he gets next to me with his peddle to the floor I gun it and pull instantly to about 40mph, let out and drop back to the speed limit. Needless to say he stopped tailing me when he realized I really wasn't in the mood for his crap. I know I'm alot faster then a trailblazer but I couldn't believe even with his head of steam he had coming up on me he couldn't pass. That is just one of those times I wish a cop was there to watch this **** clown pull his stunts.

those things are quick for a truck. when I was stock, I ran against a KB trailblazer SS and he was running low 13s and high 12s. but even though he had KB and our GTs don't really perform good on 3rd and 4th gear, I was catching up at the end.

good kill!

You would be surprised, very surprised. I had a Tiburon GT rev at me in the Wendys parking lot 2 nights ago, then you could just read my latest thread about the 91 Camaro RS.

I'm pretty sure the girl I work with thinks her car is faster. The Tiburon, not too sure. When I ordering some food he was dropping off some guy who was getting into a 99-04 GT, then when the Tiburon left he passed by me looking at me with a smirk. Its funny because he looked like a redneck, kinda big and fat, long goatee and had a camoflauge hat on.

Tiburon Gt's aren't dogs! I saw one with just an intake and catback running consistant 14.8's. Sure it's not S197 territory, but It's pretty close to New Edge territory. Most people don't know that the S197 is a bit faster than the new edge. I didn't until I was on this website.

Don't forget everyone guns for mustang because it's an iconic car.

BTW, all trailblazers with the exception of the SS are ridiculously slow! Literally run 17's or worse! Slowest vehicle I've ever driven in my life! and I've driven upwards of 100 different cars.

Good job teaching this guy a lesson. I tell you guys and there big trucks thinking they are fast(** Runs and hides**).. Seriously though on to Tiburon's. I had worked with a girl that had one when I had my 06 Ram 4x4 quadcab Hemi with a programmer and intake and I told her lets go to the track and see what her car runs just for fun. she refused. funny thing is she would come to work all day with stories that she beat this car and that car, would never race my heavy 4x4. Good thing she left before I got my diesel. I would have had no choice but to give her a nice sweet Diesel Bomb
