So I was on my way home from my friends house around 12am.
I'm headed westbound on Rt38 from Lumberton and it's just me on the road. I notice a car in the distance behind with fog lights creeping up.
He ended up keeping pace with me for a few minutes. He floored it a bit and then backed down. I just kept my pace. Guess he wanted to race....I just shook my head and kept at a steady pace. My turn was coming up so I downshifted and he floored it thinking I was gunning it...I guess?
What's up with the neon blue plate frame? Anyone know this guy?

That was me.. Actually, those are 2 blue LED bulbs that I put in to replace the stockers.. Not sure if I'm going to keep them as of yet.
By the way, I didn't floor it..Just blipped the throttle a bit. I was just heading home from the girlies place and was looking to have a little action for the blue beast. lol..She's run 13.5 at 102 bone stock..

hahaha, my first encounter with an unknown tst member! *gasp*
I guess it was the body lines around the plate that made it look like a frame in how it illuminated.
Ya, I KNOW I didn't have a chance, especially since I could hear that supercharger just whinding in my ear. hahaha, it's all good man.

LOL!! It's strange that I even came on here tonight, I just pop in on a random occasion anymore.
Yeah, them bulbs light the ground up too. lol..
Actually...No supercharger... It's a Chevy Trailblazer SS, these come in either AWD or RWD, (which mine is RWD) and the motor is an LS2 6.0....All I have done to her now is a dyno tune and muffler delete. She put down 319 and 316 on a Mustang Dyno in 70 something degree weather..I believe that's good for about 368/364 on a Dyno Jet...I could be wrong about the conversion, but I'm pretty sure it's right around there..
Yeah, I don't get many people wanting to mess around. I think most look at her and just assume..An SUV?? Hahaha... I have plans on dropping her about 3" all the way around, I think that'll add to the appearance and get me a little more attention. LOL!!

Really? Sworn I heard something whindy. windy....whinedy....how the freak do you spell that word.
But ya, It did have me curious enough. I couldn't tell what it was. Then I saw you pull up along side and I was just like "what?! Thats what it was?!"
Then I saw the blue lights. Had me all confused, haha, but I knew I didn't wanna mess with you, especially in that area. Cops tend to lay around that area everytime I go through there.

I have been told by a buddy or two that my she sounds like it has a supercharger when I get on it a bit.. Could be the way the intake is set up... I dunno...lol...yeah, I don't know how to spell that either, but I'm pickin up what your puttin down...lol

They do have a lot of hidden potential.. I like being underestimated, and I surprise MANY people with her, and I haven't even begun to tap into her capabilities... Thanks for the support.. :cool:

Well I think even stock for stock, you woulda had a rough time. I think the 0-60 on them is about 4.8 vs something like 5.7-6.0 for the SS. I never though I would see the day that a full size SUV would EVER post 0-60 times like that! (Notice I said 'full size' Typhoon owners! LOL)

I sure do..He's an aight guy..lol. I think his fastest time was a 12.9 or so, pretty quick. I haven't talked to or hung out with him in a while, my work hours are insane, that an chillen with a new chicky does occasionally take up some cruising time. Hahaha...He wants to run me again since my tune, but I know he'll walk me. I have a lil somethin somethin planned for him though, just gotta get a couple more dollars saved and find me a spare vehicle to drive around in for about a month. MUAHAHAHA!!!
