Default Is this good?

Went to the track yesterday, street tires 32 psi, lid, no muffler, 02 z28 a4 camaro.

rt.. .541
60' 2.063
330 5.601
1/8 8.507
mph 85.37
1000 10.964
1/4 13.047
mph 107.68

I know I could have hit high 12s, for some reason my car bounced of redline 2 times I think going from 1st to 2nd, I have no clue whats going on with it.

Not bad, I'd be happy with it.

On the rev limiter, are you running the trans in drive or OD? I was getting the same thing, then got a suggestion to put the shifter in OD instead of D. Hasn't done it since.

I used to hit the limiter with my custom tune on my stalled/built LT1 setup... I changed gears and forgot to update them in the tune. I would guess that even a minor change in the tire diameter could cause problems too... (those tires still stock spec? maybe a bit taller or shorter?)

Hmm..unless your converter is slipping or you have some slippage (bad clutches in the trans) I can't think of any reason it would slap the limiter.

It seems to only do it at the track, I tried to see if it would do it on the street and it didnt.
