First runs at the track this season. Car is a 99 TA. Track was unprepped(cold too) and it was a pretty cool day for most part. DA for the day was +2000
and before you guys ask, they did not have the 60ft timer on today which sucked cus i really coulda used it.
1st run 13.38 @107 left at about 3000rpm and bogged a fair amount wasnt terrible though. shifted regular through all 4
2nd run 13.32 @108 left at 3500ish rpm spun the entire 60ft, bit at top of 1st hit 2nd/3rd normal. powershifted to 4th
3rd run 13.2@109 left at 3500rpm spun for most of 60ft, once it bit at top of 1st again i powershifted to 2nd , normal shift to 3rd, powershift to 4th.
car has gone best of 13.0 at 107 (as an auto) but it was bouncing off the limiter to third gear so i was def robbed of my 12sec run. after that i threw in a 6spd and this was my second time ever being at the track with it as a stick.
Mods are lid, ported TB,ls6 intake, mac mids, o/r y, cutout, 3.73s DR's t56 swap (still on stock a4 tune)
i didnt really heat the dr's up too much, track wasnt holding for cars running slicks so i didnt even bother trying there.
all in all i think it wasnt a bad day. i was really consistent and i know for a fact with that trap its got solid 12's and DA was not helping
