i can tell you right now its going to be close. i raced a stock 05/06 manual trani from a 60 roll - 110 and i only had him by a car and a half. we went from a dig and i spun, he hooked and i ending up pulling him by another car or so by about 60ish. BTW i have a 98 a4 with slp loudmouth and slp lid w/ the 3:23 gears. just open up that cutout and dont spin and you should have a good chance. unless you have 2:73 gears, then its going to be a different story. Good Luck!

Brake stall to 2k is good, but you got to ease into it a little on street tires.

power brake til about 1600 rpm when you leave give about 75% throttle to make sure you don't spin and then go full throttle and rip him a new one. don't do a burn out like monst people think it gets your tires sticky but ona stock r rated tire it doesn't it might make you spin off the line. if your gonna do it for money your gonna need everything you can get so ask for space or the move and let him know a chase is a race and steal that **** as if you were a clepto. good luck and let me know us know how it turned out .

yea and lower your rear tire pressure down around 20 psi it will help
