I spoke with a few guys from Ga who were cutting low 60' times. I recommended 12x16 M&H full slicks (which are huge tires) for one guy. He did well with them.
Most of the fellas were auto guys with drag setup suspensions/shocks.
I would still like to try dipping into the 1.3x's with the stock shocks/suspension and full weight and then go run a roadcourse event the same day. lol

The only thing I have done is hardened output shafts, clutch & tires. All suspension is stock except DTE Brace. I think the same goes for RobZ (he can reply on that). I have prob 75 launches on this car and Rob prob has hundreds.

As far as I know Rob is the man with a 1.41 for stock bottom end H/C N/A C5with manual transmission. The best that I got was 1.451 with my stock bottom end H/C N/A A4 but have gotten 1.340 with my 427 N/A A4.

To my knowlege my 1.451 is the quickest for A4's but there are some manuals that are quicker, Rob being the quickest. Stock flywheel and 1500 launch rpm.

That's a full second on my 1/8th. I have been trying to hit a 6..maybe with some better air than 80+ degrees and 75 percent humidity.
