I hate to be the one to sound mean, but...

WTF Tahoe?????? WHY?!?

Maybe one too many women have tried to run me over in them, but I don't see why you would want to do anything to something like that.... (Strikes me as a, "Sure, you're original, because it wasn't that great of an idea to begin with." sort of thing.)

Maybe I'm missing the point. I guess. I just seriously don't get it.

..is what you'll be saying when your S2000 gets raped by one. I used to be into the same thing, it's fun pulling quicker times at Centerville than a lot of the GTO's, GT's, Mach 1's, Cobra's, LS1's, almost every import(when I went), etc.. @ 4,500+ lbs.

I did it for the look on peoples faces, it's a mixture of this.. ohmy.gif followed by this.. huh.gif

Your post was very ignorant and a bit rude, go do some research at a site like PerformanceTrucks.net, I think you'll be surprised.

Welcome to the site man, sick Tahoe!

i have a ton of pics but i can't load them at work so i will load them later on. not sure if any of you guys watched the race in my sig. the tahoe is the second race where i beat the black IIRC 350z.

i chose a tahoe for many reasons. 1. i can't fit a wife and four kids in any car. 2. most cars can't tow a boat or 3 four wheelers, 3.navy life don't really let me afford a car like i would want. 4. cars usually aren't ment to offroad. granit i don't do it much either but i can if i have to. 5. i've always been a truck guy and at 6'3" they fit better. i can't even fit in a miata i tried once legs got stuck. i do own a honda civic its fun and i beat the shit out of it but it can't touch the tahoe. plus its fun to hear people ask why i did it. its not original a ton of people make trucks go fast. i'm sure the viper at the red light the other day was saying the same thing as i rolled off the red light and left him behind. now i'm not saying i beat him he did manage to pull ahead of me by the time i was almost in third but my trans was going out. but now i have a finish line lvl 7 with billet input and output shafts and ready to troll the streets again.

here is a thread of the old trans, note the twisted output shaft. http://www.performancetrucks.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=444170


if you watch the vid in my signature you can watch my other vids i posted too. some good some not so good. one i pulled the front right wheel off the ground just a little. then it bounces and torque steers real bad.
