Default Went to the track for the first time ( NE Dragway)

01 a4 3.23's. 60k.

Flowmaster muffler and a lid, first run of .596 rt 2.1 60 ft and a 13.7

How is that for a fairly stock car? I ran one more time but ended up with a 14.089 cuz i spun tire and killed my 60 ft.

Maybe just a little on the slow side. I was running 13.5 with a lid and catback on a hot day(90+) at low elevation. So it might be fine depending on your elevation and weather. Just get some more seat time or buy some sticker tires and you will be right on.

Not bad. My A4 3.23 geared Formula's stock times on the factory good years were 13.40s at 103 mph with a 2.06 60 foot time. With the air you're likely running in, mid 13s should be attainable. Put a real exhaust on it and get it tuned and high 12s will be there with traction.
