I really didnt mean to but I had to get over. We were both at the light in pole position, me in the middle lane needing to get over to the right lane to get on the freeway onramp, and him in the right lane determined to keep the lead. I had a feeling he was going to hit it when the light turned green and sure enough I heard the classic buaaaaaaa of the chevy. Almost sounded like he had is air filter cover turned upside down. Well not much to brag about, but needless to say he lost by a long shot. But he was pissed. I could see in my mirror his masterbation movement like he was saying "Big deal". I thought that if he was in my positon he would have been singing a diff. tune. Those Tahoes are S L O W slow!

I wouldn't have even wasted the gas to get in front of the Tahoe.....well then again they are slow so you prob didn't even have to go WOT....LOL.
Steve83:
The older Tahoe with the 5.7L and the newer Tahoe with the 5.3L both can only achieve mid 16's in the 1/4 so it really doesn't matter what year.

Isn't it fun to see the look on people faces when they get beat by a truck. There has been numerous times at the track where I've lined up against sports cars that should beat me but they cut a bad light and have traction issue then when they finally get going it's too late and I turn on the win light.
