Boosted 4x4 launches is all they do at the track, I'd be scared to break something though

I had a Chevy Trailblazer in another life I used to launch in 4-lo. I could get it to 80mph before I ran out of gear lol. Name: image-1425675315.jpg

I just put some pics in there. And I'm not sure I abused the **** out of that thing. Not only that but it was a rental for 20k miles before I bought it lol. I'm not a Chevy guy anymore but I respect those trailblazers.

Lmao they need lockers to do anything really, mine didn't have one but still did alright. In 2hi first gear shifted at 52mph and second at 94mph lol. Was geared like **** with bigger tires. It ran like a raped ape in 4-lo though.
