Re: is this how to do it???? Depends on the kind of racing you do. If you are the track 1/4 mile racing your consistency counts more than ET. I have seen many a 17 second and slower car win the ETK bracket due to consistency. Having an M6 (which I have) does offer you greater control over gear choice but with the right converter/tuning and gearing an A4 can be equally as stout.
