Your chances of winning? Not really great unless the 1/4 mile has a couple bends in it :yelrotflm .

1/4 mile times for both vehicles are within a couple tenths.

If you search through Google and look up the quarter mile times for both..

(my search, not yours)

RX8 1/4 mile = 14.49 seconds on one test site
Trailblazer SS = 14.5 seconds on another test site.

Your mileage may vary.

I wouldn't run for pinks if I were you.

basically gotta hope for a nonspin start for me, and an AWD kickin from his blazer to take away from some of the power... wasnt racing for slips.. its a buddy of mines trailblazer and just figured it might be a decent race..
