GREAT video!

As for the stall: go for it. I also have an A4 daily driver and I'm probably going to get a 3,200-3,500 stall for mine. I've been doing a ton of research on them and have come to a conclusion: any gas mileage loss is more than made up by the extra fun they give you and the ET loss!

You won't lose much gas if you go with a lock up converter. Most of the gas loss will come from in town driving but once you are on the highway, she'll lock up and you can cruise in lower rpm.

Nice vid... love the theme!

Definitely looking forward to Episode II: The Vette Strikes Back, because it looked like he was waiting to see your taillights before launching! :

thanks guys - we are going back to the track next weekend along with my buddy that just got a C5 also (stock xcept for Borla). Got my pops a Blackwing too for a little help. The two of them are vowing revenge.

Unfortunately for them, even if they do figure out how to drive and get down where they should be (mid to low 13s) that was a pretty bad run for me too. My shift points were all screwed up and I should be able to carve another tenth off that 60ft with my Nittos and proper burnout. (My launch only looked decent compared to Mr 3.0)

I am definitely going to make up a few tenths this time and yes there will be a vid to rip on both of them........stay tuned lol
