Default Are you faster than I was?

Who has gone quicker/faster than my '00 A4 Z28? I only had the following mods:

1. Lid
2. Catback
3. 150 shot NX wet kit

Anyone run better with just those mods? My best was 11.59 @ 121mph on a 1.85 60' on STREET RADIALS. No drag radials allowed!

I'm just curious to see where I stood amongst the best of the best.

<awaits someone to post the 1/4 mile ET list>

I ran 11.3 @ 122 with the same mods, except I had to use ET streets. My short time was a 1.76

That's a really nice run B18B1LS1. I wish I would've had some ET Streets. I couldn't spray until I got traction. Once I sprayed I lost traction again. Major traction issues.

Anyone else? It's amazing that what these cars can do at the track with minimal mods.

Had a friend who went 11.43@(121?) with just a lid and cutout. He was on drag radials. People told him he couldnt do it again twice, he went back the next week with slicks and went 11.30's on 150 shot TNT.

Yeah sure is. One faster mother. He sold it to a friend recently though who put more stuff on the car. Who know what it will hit now, maybe better on motor and same on gas? Thats how my car reacted to Mods and the gas.
