beat a trailblazer this weekend
i know these trucks arent made for racing, but it kind of just happened. Anyway, i was on my way upstate and was following a trailblazer that was behind a focus or some kind of small car. It was single lane but turned into double lane as it started to go up a slight incline. The speed limit was 50, and we were doing about 45. So as it turns into two lanes and starts going up hill, i go into the left lane and have it drop one gear out of O/D. That didnt do much so i gave it a little more and had it kick down again....i guess the chevy guy saw me coming as all of a sudden he started taking off on me....now hes coming up fast on the car in front of him. That just about pissed me off, so i put her to the floor and let the fat lady sing, she downshifted, jumped to about 4k on the tach and i was gone. I came up FAST on the chevy as he had to slam on his brakes so he didnt hit the car. Im stock except for the mods in my sig, and my bamachips tuner should be here anyday. Just thought id share the little fun that i had.
anybody else have any stories?

I get to battle with all the carzy drivers out here in So-Cal all the time, people merging when they shouldnt and generally driving like jerks....so I get into little skermishes all the time...if I get my foot in it most of the time I can hold my own. Ive been pleasently suprised with how much get up & go the little 4.6 has, but it still cant beat my 390 haha.
