Cool, I know it seemed pretty good.

If I had drag radials I'm pretty sure I could get close to 8.5s or better stock.

98 trans am full weight 323s a4. loudmouth and a lid, zero other mods.

8.4@84 mph with 1.9 short time.

That was in Huntsville. Not sure on the DA it was a few years ago. I would guess around 1200-1500, It was pretty cold.

Mid 13's are not bad. On par with a stock A4.
