That slip doesn't make sense, how did you trap so low with such a high 1/8th mph? Did you miss the 3-4 shift?

Exactly my first thought. 94mph in the 1/8th and only 112mph in the 1/4? Should be trapping at least 118mph in the 1/4.

The gears won't have much affect on your trap speed, but they will help your e.t. I say 118mph in the 1/4 mile is a bare minimum. That is an 11 second car if you can get the driving down good. Is your car an auto or a manual? 3.23's are for autos. Manuals have 3.42s. We can figure out what is up with your trap speed easier if we know what transmission you have.

thanks for the interest, i have a A4 with a 3800 stall. another thing comes to mind when your going that fast im missing the passenger front undercarriage plastic that sits under the front bumper, it might be producing to much drag at 100+MPH?
