why am i not there yet, scarches head... this weekend i ran:
2.053 60'
8.689 1/8th @ 83.62
13.322 1/4 @ 105.31
my mods are lid, filter, bellows, ngk plugs, msd wires, pacesetter lt's, ory, hooker cb, tuned with hp tuners. its a a4 with 2.73's
but shouldnt the trap be higher and the et a little better. seems like what a stock car should run.

i know the gears and stall, but it should be 2-3 mph faster and at least a tenth or two. dont most long tube cars break in to the 12's with other bolt-ons. i know i ahve the slowest and heaviest model to do it in but i figured it would be better. they make factory freaks, is there such thing as a factory retard?

added a stall, 373s, udp and tune - car went 110-111 in worse weather.

your stock 2.73's are killing you, that also why your trap speed is not high

how is the car shifting? The MPH on my car droped from 105-106 to 103's when the trans started to slip. the 2-3 shift just before the finish probably did most of the Trap speed damage. After I got an FLT trans and stall the MPH picked back up to 105-106 as well as solid 12 sec timeslips.. this is with 2.73's, lid, and catback only car too.
