Will I win?

[2000blazerls]

I was challenged today. Guy I work with wants to race my Blazer.

2000 Blazer 2wd 4.3 Vortec with K&N intake and aftermarket exhaust

vs

2000 S-10 2wd 2.2 with no mods


Now I know my Blazer is bigger, heavier than his S-10. BUT I had a 97 S-10 just like his and I know what it can do and my Blazer (I think) is faster.

mine is Auto his is 5sp. Am I wrong or will I blow him out of the water?

Bear in mind. His is stick and yours is auto. He'll probably get you out of the whole, But you should catch him up when his shifting to 2nd. I just hope your going to take him on a track and not on the road. Safety comes first for pre-arranged racing.

Also his truck weighs less than the blazer by a lot of poundage

I just compared the specs. You outweigh him by 600lbs. (seems questionible). You have 70 more horsepower. 110 more ft/lbs of torque. Your 0-60 is suppose to be 9.3 (stock) and his 0-60 is suppose to be 12.3.

The info was easy to find, but putting all those dots in there to space it out was a bitch.

Why do you think he's single and lives in his parents basement?

[muzzy1maniac]

I had a 96p/u and now a 98 blazer so I've driven them both too. I think the you should take him without much trouble. He has a good chance of beating you off the line if he's pretty good with the clutch but you'll tear his doors off after that.
