1/8th mile, Lid only 2001 SS A4
Picked up my SS about a month ago and finally got a few passes in last night. I had planned on going to the 1/4 mile track in Fayetteville, but it got rained out so I went to Roxboro instead. My car has an SLP lid and a home ported throttle body. I removed the spare/Jack and ran on just under half a tank. The temps were about 80 degrees, so not too bad. I only got 3 passes in due to the track closing 45 minutes after I got there, so all passes were made while the car was hot. The 1st pass was the only decent one, so I won't even post the other 2.
2.01 60'
1/8th mile ET, 8.6
1/8TH mile trap, 85.4 mph
I was pretty happy with it. My Mach ran a 8.6 at 84 mph, and the 1/4 mile on that run was a 13.1 at 107, so I figure my SS ought to be good for about the same 1/4. Only one way to find out though, lol.

I just got it tuned today (off dyno), but it feels much better, firmed up the shifts, cut torque management way back, added timing, etc. Hoping to knock off a decent amount next time out.

C'mon now guys. Don't bash the man unless you have good reason. He's been in the game now for way longer than most in the area and knows his stuff. We all know about the infamous Z06. Employee was fired, Vette owner was paid, Jeff is embarrassed.... old news. Now if there's something else I don't know about, by all means speak up!
