ok so i have a 01 z28 a4 and a buddy of mine that i work with has an m6 02 SS, everybody at the shop is talking **** that his car sinse its and ss would own mine nasty, and they dont believe auto's are better for drag.... so what do u think who would win in a quarter.he's a decent driver.. we are racing in a couple weeks once i install my tc.... i think i have a good chance of shutting everyone up

fuddle 3400 stall
bbk 80 mm tb
tb bypass
descreened maf
slp lid
slp coldair induction
k&n

and he is prolly low 13's but what do u guys think... ohh yeah the people i work with love to gamble so hopefully they all get pissed when he looses(if he does)

i would say drivers game. you will need a better gear and NO you will not run 12.6 or 12.7. trust me..

well im running 13.2 now, and from what ive heard w/ stickys and the 3400 stall i should be in the 12's very easy...ill just have to wait to find out

getsomebeyatch

if your both on street tires drivers race, if he can drive it, he might get you. 3400 stall + street tires= very hard to launch.

put on some drag radials and then you should get him..

TX_SS

iTrader: (4)

well; there is only ONE way to find out.. get some stickies and go to the track.. itz not easy to launch your car with that stall.. and go race him and post us what HAPPENED...

ill try and talk him into letting me run dr's but i dunno if he will go for it

Im guessing you wont.
Its a nice car you got there, but you have no real power adders besides the Intake/Exhaust.
The stall is definitly going to help, but i dont know if its going to be enough.

Stock Auto 2.73 cars dont clear much more than a 13.5, even the 01-02's.
You said 13.2 right?
Well ive seen stock 02' SS's M6's with the SLP package run under and around 13 sec. flat.
Given his few mods and Clutch, with 3.42's I dont think you will be able to trap as much as him. If you put on LT's with 3.73's you would already have him.
But thats another 800-$1000

Just my 02.
Race Him Anyway...
and Good Luck

well after some talking we worked out that we will race after i get my lt pacesetters and ory, and i can use any rubber i want....but the catch is he is gonna be runnind slp longtubes by then

dannyz

Dude, run him.
Drop rear tire air down to 18#'s and go for it.
I think your car is a lot more capable then what you've been hearing.
Yes, almost any M6 ls-1 is a 12 second car.
Most driver's, however, are not skilled enough.

blah, no race.

You should win though.
Alot of his stuff does nothingh and stalled autos are mean from the hole.

thanks ill let ya know how i do

robb4964

If he ran a 13.2 without the converter a 12.7 is not completely unrealistic. It Could happen.

Its all gonna be about the launch and his ability to drive an M6. If he makes on mistake your gonna beat him but its not gonna prove a Auto to be "better" for drag racing. Although its been debated a thousand times and auto's are better for consistant drag racing wich is what most people are looking to acomplish,manuals with=mods are always faster.

almost stock ls1 A4 with 2.73 gear and street tires AND with the 3400 STALL WILLL NOT RUN 12.6 or 12.7... PERIOD~!!! NO THAT **** DONT HAPPEN... maybe with DR and perfect LAUNCH...

i was talking to robb4964

'Trust'

iTrader: (24)

Um, yea it will, I know of a 00' Vert with 2.73's with a ~3400 stall/lid that ran a 12.7 on 18's.

I have 99 SS M6, and i think with a stall you should most definitely win. He's going to be very inconsistant. I think if he had some ET's on there at the track with a pretty damn good launch he might be able to run you down. But i would have my money on the Z28 with the stall all day long at the track. Your 60' is should dominate his. Only problem i see is that stall with street tires. GOOD LUCK, MAKE SURE YOU POST AN AFTER THREAD.

I'd say with the stall and a good launch you own him. If you can't hook, kiss him goodbye.

swoleguy

Lose 2.73's and get some drag radials and you'll stomp him in the 1320.
