Default 10s at ATCO last night.

CARTEK Dave's new time for a H/C/I on a 3500# 99 A4 TA was 10.988 @ 122.01 with a 1.443 60'.

C5_PIG Mark's M6 C5 with H/C/I 3380# race weight went 11.197 @ 123.23 with a 1.598 60' and 11.332 @ 124.51 with a 1.654 60'.


ROBSVETTE Robert, A4 C5 with H/C/I Stock weight (about 3550) went 11.7 @ 119.

Julio, congrats on 10's!! You guys knew you were close. Did you guys actually weigh the car or is 3500 an estimate?

Dave

Thanks, looks good! With that cam are you shifting around 6700rpm? Also I understand you guys port LS6 manifolds? Care to share what you do for us cheap do-it-yourselfers out there?

Holy ****!!!!!!!!!

Julio, we need to talk. I'm looking to fix my piston ring problem soon. I want to go with a new short block, keep my heads and cam and probably spray! I think my heads need some fixin. Something tells me when the shop fixed them last year when I did the 3-2 mis-shift they screwed something up.

Terry, the shift points are at 6700.

Big Mike, contact me at the shop when you get a chance 908-317-4496.


Mike S., we were running 11.0s at the end of the night but when we first got there Dave was running 11.1s 11.2s, we knew there was a problem because he runs 11.1-11.2 in warmer weather. We found a lot of leaf bits in the MAF screen and we blew them out, the very next run he ran 11.0s and in the last run 10.98.


WS6 TransAm Girl, Dave wouldn't shut up the whole way home. <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">

Thank you guys.


ONYXSS, the car was weigh with corner scales and with an empty gas tank it's at 3,480# then add a few gallons of fuel and we are at about 3,500# with a driver. He still has a mild steel roll bar with swing outs a complete Borla cat-back and it's a TA not a Camaro.


Trevor D, in this case yes, Rob's C5 is at stock weight for an A4 coupe and we have lightened Dave's car to the 3500# mark. We are going to take more weight out of Dave's TA in order to make him more competitive.

Thanks again, Julio.

Hey Brian, nice to see you are also in this forum.

The weather was the biggest factor, when we got to ATCO that night it was cold but Dave was running 11.1-11.2s, he had leaf bits on the MAF screen, after blowing them out he started running 11.0s then 10s on the last run. The only difference from when we ran with you is a new set of gears, the old set was howling.
