Default what do you think it will run?

I've never had my car at the track or anything but I've got a 99 z/28 a4 with basic free mods, ported and polished tb, slp air lid, etc... and I also have some 3.73's outback. I'm going to the track on the 15th and I am going to have some stickies as well. you think I can get 13.4??

Thanks.

I ran a 13.34 with a damn near full weight car and have less stuff than you on bfg kdw's. If you can't run better than that, then somethings wrong. This was at Rt. 66 in Joliet, IL on a shitty day.

Yeah you can beat him. Don't beat him the first time out though. Let him win then race him for gas money.

I know what you mean about elevation like that. If you can hook, you will be good. The track I go to is 3075, and has fucked up track prep. Slicks can hook..thats it. Stock tire ls1s are 2.5 60's. I had a 2.3, and only went 14.1 @ 102. I only had lid/cutout at the time. Your mods should get you to mid 13s.
