Went to Farmington Dragway 1/8 mile and only made 2 runs. Car is a 2000 T/A A4 with just a lid and mufflers and 3.23 gears with street tires. I left the car in 3rd gear.

Now I launched it by holding the brake to 1000 rpms then mashing the gas. Not sure if thats the best way to launch these stock cars.

R/T:.540 .170
60':2.067 2.098
330':5.885 5.906
1/8ET:8.923 8.915
1/8MPH:83.07 83.88

I know, not very good, but I could be wrong, something doesnt seem to add up here. There was also a new Nissan GTR there running high 7s around 94 mph and a SRT-8 Challenger running around 8.7 at 84/85 mph.

My dad was down there at the swap meet. As stock as you are I wouldn't expect a whole lot better than 8.5x. If you get serious you'll need a stall and some drs. 3.73 wouldn't hurt either. I saw a red GTR in line @ Zmax tnt but didn't get to see what it ran.

Okay, so I didnt realize the elevation of the track is 1200ft. I calcualted it to around a 8.6. Nothing special, but at least I know it wasnt all driver error.

That elevation will definitely hurt you. If you can find out what the DA was, that helps when evaluating your timeslips compared to what other cars are running. Your 60' is spot on for average street tire runs in an auto.

Calculated my DA for that day and it came to 2515. Now that I have a good baseline run I can start with some more mods.
