Default 98 WS6 A4 in the 12's

Well first time at the track today and was able to run a 12.84 @ 106. Had a 2.01 60 ft.
This was with Magnaflow catback, lid, and 125 dry shot. The track seemed to be ok but I still couldn't get my 60 ft. time under 2 seconds with the street tires (fuzions). This run also was spraying out of first. I did a different run with 1st gear locked out and ran a 12.9 @ 108 and a 2.02 60 ft.
For the first time out I wasn't too dissapointed.

Shouldn't you be running at least 12.0 and more than 106 trap speed?

You talk like there is some type of SOP for this hobby...lol Every car and driver is different and sometimes things don't work out according to the ideal. With the poor flowing 98 perimiter bolt heads, stock stall, and street tires I don't think the times are all that bad for my first track day. I'm happy with it.
