First time with the car... Took the car to 41 with a couple other guys.
It was about 80 degrees or so once I got there so I was not going to expect anything great out of my stock car. Definitley was a little too warm.
Mods are SLP Loudmouth, MTI lid and a few free mods. It is an A4 with 2.73's. I was running Nitto 555's on the back (not the DR's) @ 24PSI.
Here is what I came up with...
60 FT--- 2.078
330FT---5.886
1/8 ET---8.975
1/8 MPH--- 80.46
1/4 ET--- 13.786
1/4 MPH---101.52
Yea it is nothing crazy but I was happy with my 60's.
Any insight on these times?

Looks alright for nearly stock. Get that converter in there with some sticky tires and your 60's should drop big time. Even with more seat time you could probrably improve on your times with what you have.

Yeah, they where the 555Rs. I was running a 315/35/17 on a 9.5" wheel. Mention that combo anywhere else on this site and you'll get a slap on the wrist from a few people.

I've daily driven in the summer with 555Rs (front and rear) since I bought the car and never had any issues in the rain.
