Now that i got you in here, its pretty un-spectacular. but on account of this being a slow time you might really enjoy this.
This was awhile back, but its kinda a standing thing here that anyone that thinks they are hot ****e needs to race a stock something first before they can take on anyone else, and my 03 Envoy (15.9@86) was there at the time so what the hell. you may laugh but i bet it can beat almost any rice machine around here, and the losers that think their chevy pickup with glasspacks is superman (you know who im talking about). So there are 2 cocky punks out there talking all kinds of smack about "i can do 11's" and "you arent crap if you cant break 100 in the 1/4". first is a early 90s probe gt, the one with the t25 turbo on it, he thinks its lightning. second is a 200x civic with a set of rims and a 75shot. well the 2 of them race first, and the probe gets beat by like 4 cars, im laughing so hard at this point cause i know whats coming next. they come back, and i ask "you kiddies ready to play with the big boys now?", and get them really riled up. so i line up with the probe and get 2 cars on him out of the hole, and let him pull to about 1/2 car back at the finish, im at about 3/4 throttle. This is when all the ricer excuses come out, "i was spinning", "i was pulling you on the top", "lets go from a roll", etc. At this point i say to hell with it then, ill race the civic and if i beat it neither of you can say a word about racing until i say so. its agreed upon at this point and i line up with the civic.
Now my Envoy is stock except i cut the front of the airbox so it has more than a 1" hole for air, thats it. and it has 3.42 gears and 17" tires, it shifts into drive at about 92.
Anyways we line up and I get a solid 2 cars on this guy out of the hole, he sprays way too soon and just smokes his 1 front tire
and i commence to pull another car on him. at the finish i had him by just about 1.5 cars, and they kept going, i havent seen them around since to tell you the truth.
Moral of the story is, when you think you have a fast import, watch out for bone stock, 4600lb GM suv's
BWAHAHAHAHAHAAH
