Best run of the night was a 8.96 @ 82.1 w/ a 2.18 short time. Best MPH was 82.5. I think with a little more seat time I can break some 8.80's. With that MPH I should be in the mid 13's. Not bad IMO. Only performance mod I have is an air lid. What's hurting me is my heavy ass 17x9.5/17x11 wheels.

I had a lot of shit in the car too, but that's enough with excuses. I had a blast.

Oh yeah my uncle went 5.40 @ 129.
Not bad for your first time. I ran the 1/8th in 8.8@81 mph with a shifter and h pipe, all else was stock. The 1/4 was 13.6@104. Your car should have an 8.6 in her.

Yea, for you Mustang guys A4 means "automatic"

You can call bs all you want but facts are facts, There are several people here that can vouch for me, but I bet that won't matter to ya.


So you just keep thinking whatever it is you're thinking. No, a stock automatic LT1 didn't run within .3 and 2mph of your beloved Mach



After hearing the conditions, that ET sounds about right...

I'm aware that A4 stands for automatic. But thank you for taking the time to explain it and make yourself look stupid. Why do you think I said that...

if you say you run that time then awesome for you... but the fact to the matter is that 99% of LT1s are a high 13 low 14 second cars.
