Slicks or drag radials? Suspension mods to get it to hook? And I'm going to assume a very well prepped track.

This isn't apples to apples if the track got no bite.

Marshall, will chime in I'm sure, but he's running Bogarts on a 255/50R-16 DR tire... The standing joke is that PIB can "HOOK on ICE"

paint it black vette

thank you . this is he truth. i also get a little wheelie. i do think the car is balanced well as i always seem to be able to launch when others spin with same conditions.

Very nice! We have always used the phrase "hook in a car wash"

I should have my bar in in a week, and I'll get bak to it

Keep the info rolling in...

For my A4, I got my best 60' times loading the converter slightly and then flooring it on the third yellow.

I have tried pushing the RPM higher but I would red light more often than I liked.

Hey, Chris... Last CC of the year this Saturday. Come on out and play.

I can't make it. I am headed to the Giants vs Jets game that night.

I cut 1.60 at 2500 and a 1.61 at Idle.
11.20's @121mph with 01 A4 with PT 4000 Yank MT dot's 26/11.5/16

A little different combo, but the same results. I haven't tried leaving higher than 1600, but 1.59 best with SS3600 Yank, 3.42, and Hoosier 245/45/17 drag radials. 11 teens at 121-122mph.

From the data logs in HPT, it's clear that the converter flashes right to 3600.

I'm headed back out to the track Sunday....I'll be sure to post the results.

I'm airing my MT DRs (275/40/17) to 17 PSI cold and flashing the converter to 1500-1600.

Wish me luck.

RonSSNova

Hope you get a good track and good weather!

I'll be out tomorrow and sat as well, I better work on my tune some more!

Got some more things to try....like VE added into the mix!

11.552 @ 115.45 mph for me this weekend. That was with a 1.616 60 foot time. Looks like I was right around 2300 at launch. I know my MPH is low, converter drop of 800 rpm.

Stall it as high as possible without creeping forward. You may have to really stand on the brake. Let the car shift automatically. However, if you have the ability to reprogram your shift points then you should definitely experiment with the shifts. I picked up some nice gains with minute adjustments.
