Drag Radials I have a 1998 Z with a 3.73 A4 stock 10 bolt. The only mods are trans kit,exhaust, and air filter also.Thinking I might be making 290-320 h.p. what drag radials do you recommend? I purchased a set of Toyo T1-s's and only have about 10000 miles and they break loose all the time. I know you are going to say replace the rear with a 9 or 12 bolt but $ is an issue right now and I need the best solution!

if you put drag radials on it you need to watch how you launch.
stock 10 can break very easily although i do know of a couple guys locally still running them in a4's who are deep in the 11's if not high 10's

Your going to have to work on breaking that 10 bolt in an A4. Not to say it can't happen, but you stand a better chance of not breaking it IMO. Especially myself w/ 2.73's. I think that on drag radials you should have nothing to worry about. I've been on my stock 10 bolt for 150,xxx getting to 7.5 in the 1/8 w/ a 1.6 60' time and have no problems as of yet. Just start saving now because eventually you will need something beefier (12 bolt) but not for a while, hopefully. Just my .02

I've also heard because of the automatic it takes a couple of seconds before the stall puts all the power on the tires. Is this true or just crap? Also thanks guys for answering my questions!
