Default quickest stock vert?

just curious what the quickest stock vert recorded in the 1/4. i ran a 13.6@104 with a 2.3+ 60ft. stock.

had cheapo doral tires all season/winters tires at 35 psi.. forgot to let out air but ohwell.

anyhow plan on going back to the track soon with some summer performance tires mabe some nitto street/strip tires. i figure if i can get a 1.9 to 2.0 60ft i should be pushing low low low 13 like 13.0 to 13.3

just curious what the quickest one is. and then what is the quickest a4 since im also an automactic. everyone is telling me im quick for a vert a4. i have a cutout now but im going to have it capped on a few of the runs because i want to see my peak time ahcieved stock before i start recording modded times.

i will say this. from 0-80ish i walked away from a ls1 Z28 hardtop. had about 3 cars inbetween us. mabe i got lucky and bought a freak i hate using that term but for past couple months i have learned not all ls1's are created equall. some seem to have been touched by the hand of god so to speak.

what gears do you have 2.73 or 3.23?


and your not really stock heh. im looking to go your time compltely stock right down to the ac delco paper filter.


with my cutout i will outflow any catback exhaust. and i will be getting my airlid in the next week or so. if im able to rip 1 13.0-13.3 without them im looking for 12's with just those 2 mods. might be a 12.9999999 but 12 none the less. but we will see. i probly could hit 12's with some nitto street/strip tires alone. which i might invest in. i see a turbo setup within a year for me though eheh id probly become the quickest vert then

You know your car would still be stock if all you did was weight reduction, lol, then you should run some good times if you take a few hundred pounds out.

im not really a fan of big weight reductions on verts, when people start ripping out the interior and all...its a vert you still gotta be able to drop the top and cruise imo

heh well i went to a 1/8 track today and ripped a few 8.6's with 2.1 and 2.2 60ft foots both at 84 mph. the 2.260ft i was 84.95 almost 85 mph.

thats still crappy the track was so slick i would be loosing traction the entire time even with the 2.160ft. but none the less that 2 tenths quicker in the 1/8 than when i ran my 13.6@104 with a 8.8 1/8. so im atleast a 13.4 i guess?

their was an 2002 A4 ws6 their that ran more consistent than me but i still had the best 8.6 time to his and i always out traped him by 1 mph. another 1998 TA ran a 8.6flat@83 and few 8.7 ect. we all were auto and all ran basically the same times but i was out trapping them both by a full mph. i think i could have got a 8.5 to 8.4 if i had traction some nitto's are definately the next mod im getting.

Fastest post I've seen for a bone stock LS1 'vert was 13.2x @ 108.xx for a '98 WS6 6M. I can't remember the guy's name/screename OTOMH (he was an early member of LS1.com), but it was a red 'vert and I'm pretty sure he ran it at Norwalk, OH.
