like someone else said, why use slicks when youre basically stock? you should have just gotten either some good street tires, or at most a drag radial.

well to answer some questions, i got the ET streets already on rims, unused for $275. I was looking at MT drag radials, but didnt wanna pass this deal up.

the track i race at sucks. the prep is horrible. Im getting 2.2 60' times on factory tires, but trapping at 107 mph at 13.55.

so some same that the auto will hold, and others say it wont. all i was looking for was "launch it at ____ rpm and itll be fine". im thinking launching at 1500 rpm then PTM on last amber.

With your gear ratio and an A4 you have nothing to worry about. The M6's seem to have the problems with exploding rears.
