check the search feature at the top of the page for members et's. use the filter on the right to specify what you're looking for. btw, is nitrous a bolt-on? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

there have been a bunch of guys including some of the first like smokur50 (now raging motorsports), moose, WS6Lvr (Nitin), etc.

in fact, the fastest bolt 6 speed is an incredible 11.5 by a couple of guys.

No, and I don't think you'll be seeing that anytime soon either. The stock TQ converter makes you go <img border="0" alt="[boring]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_zzz.gif" />

Don't believe those shady M6 guys.
I think they're all lying. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

M6's can run 11's with just bolt ons easily as long as they have a good driver! Look at there traps!! 118-120 and a auto is running those same ET's but only trapping 112-114

Typically, 2-3 not 4-6 mph, IMO. Take care.

Where has this guy Mike C. been for the past couple of years?

I've never seen nor heard of an A4 going 11.50's @ 112 MPH.

It is actually pretty easy to go 11's with an M6. RAGEman and I trapped over 120 mph about a year ago at TAD. Of course our cars were both STRIPPED and the weather was PERFECT.

All it takes is sticky tires and not being afraid to launch hard, oh and good driving <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />

If you have dyno #'s,60' time and trap speed
we can figure out if you suck @driving.
Raceweight would also help. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
