-2800 feet of DA at Island Dragway last night...

B6/7 S4/RS4
#1

…and an APR supercharged RS4 with a full/complete mod list hit the strip. Flying Potatoes went 11.28@125 on 93 octane .

So JHM still have a comfortable hold of the fastest pump gas RS4 title.

Here’s the mod list…

MTM exhaust and downpipes
Some kind of BBK
JHM lw rear rotors
LW euro seats
LW forged wheels although they’re an odd size so not sure of weight
titanium bolts (lol)
LW battery
And then suspension, short shifter and every mount you can do.

So pretty much nothing left on the table.
He cut a 1.74 sixty foot time and I believe APR has no lift shift so I can’t see him fucking up anywhere even if he tries. Although he is a quattrofail regular…and we know they tend to suffer from Mickitis.

He said he had too much gas at 1/4 tank but the lowest you’d want is 1/8 which is only about 15 lbs difference so there’s nothing in that that is changing a time.

Here’s his az signature

2007 RS4 - Former Audi Corporate, Auto Show Car - Stasis MS, MTM Exhaust/Down Pipes, Alcon 370mm Mono6, JHM LW Rear Rotors, Stainless Brake Lines, Spec Stage 3+, JHM Short Shift, Hotchkis Sways, 034 End Links, Stern Adjustable Control Arms, JHM Intake Spacers, Apikol Diff Mount, 034 Trans Mount, Stern Motor Mounts, 034 TQ Mount, K&N, 034 Intake Hose, EBW LW Battery, ADV.1, Tikore, OEM Euros, APR 93 Tune.

Here’s his time slip

isnt he some fat pile of shit like mick?

with that DA and his mods and what Ernie has already posted I expected 10s

#3

-2800… and a 11.28 I assume he really sux at driving that should have been much faster then that given the DA.

You know your a sad case when 1/4 tank of gas is too much.

Flyingtrollmatoes atlease got a good kit and didn’t get kryptroniced into the AMD.

With the -2800 DA I would like to know what boost the car was able to make. Im going to guess we won’t hear about it.

#4

He’s not that fat. Just a big nerd with a bad beard. Not sure what the beard weighs.

Arin from APR said this FT car made like 600 who on the dyno . Not sure why it’s trapping 125.

#5

I don’t know how you can suck at driving though when your $20,000 supercharger kit has launch control and no lift shift built into the tune.

Funny thing is though this guy has a massive ego. So if he was shit at driving, he won’t admit it. He will blame stuff. Here it was having too much gas in the car (lol). Next time it will be that spec clutch he has.

That was one quality mick had… he knew he was a shit driver and admitted it held his car back.

As for boost at - 2800 density altitude, I bet he (and Apr ) has no idea whatsoever. They showed it made 14.5 in +1000 feet of density altitude at Apr on the dyno . Drop 4000 feet and you’re looking at a 10-12% power gain all else being equal, from density alone. Probably 16-16.5?

They aren’t saying though (because they honestly didn’t test it).

#6

Not a bad time but not great either… Assuming his first time out? Any vids floating around? -2800 DA! Man I would love to run my S4 in those conditions… Sigh…

#7

I’m not sure how you guys can try to clown someone who had the balls to actually go to the track. I haven’t seen any of the many customers you all talk about with the JHM S/C posting any times yet. 11.2 for someone in their first time on track with the RS in any configuration is pretty damn fast whether you guys want to admit it or not. Clearly in house APR and JHM drivers will be faster than owners with their cars. This is the fastest owner by far putting up a time yet. So how about comparing owner results to owner results?

#8

APR hasn’t officially released their 1740 kit right?

Plus Flying Tomato is an idiot that has passed a bunch of people off. At least he went to the track though.

#9

If you guys want to actually see what he’s running with he’ll be at ATCO next weekend. Some of the assumptions above are off. Also something not to ignore is the fact that it was 25-30 degrees during the 11.2 run. But I’m sure someone will say that has no impact on traction so I shouldn’t have wasted my breath. It’d be nice for an AMD and JHM car to come out as well. Then check out all kits on the same track and same conditions.

#10

ohh did you come here to stick up for your boyfriend no wonder you have -45 karma your a toolbag. Here is what you missed and why Ill be giving you a nother negitive karma point.

You come on here all the time bla bla bla about this or that. Some of the time you make sense this time you don’t. You want even a little respect see that flyingtrollmatows is just a pure hate troll. working to try and make up stuff about JHM… do you really think having fast RS4 is going to make up for his clear lack of any kind of respect and the fact that he has lost all credibilty with himself and lots of actual educated memebrs. Its not hard to spot a MickF or a Bensti or a flyingtrollmatows.

We all know the APR kit is good no one is questiinging that. We all know flyingtroll is just that so any of what he says has already been taken as garbage just like his one sided opintions.

People call me a hater but… I give credit where its due and owned. TTS great kit APR has a top kit here we all know that. AMD is a BS company with crap marketing and a powerdrunk midget trying to run a shop.

its simple flyingtroll hates jhm and then lies to try and get people away from jhm. People see that and then call him on it and point out he is full of shit. Bolting a APR supercharger on his car isn’t going to make anyone forget that.

#11

Just fuck off Gibby, your clearly an idiot. Tell him to come here and fend off the wolves himself…lol Flyinhtrollbag cut a 1.74 60’…very fucking repspectable, so why the hell would you bring up traction? He is also running a 275 wide tire. Just like the title said, he had epic DA that is the key, how much gas he had and the traction you think he didn’t have means fuck all.

You should have instructed him how to to AWD burn outs in the water box or lent him your driving shoes, because I’m sure you have like 10 fucking pair.

#12

Your entire post has absolutely nothing to do with anything I posted. Furthermore ur comment about why I deserve negative karma for my post makes absolutely no sense. Sounds like someone didn’t have their warm milk and nap yet.lol

#13

so your saying you didn’t read you just came here to ask why trollmatow got clowned and not listen.

you asked. why would we clown trollmattows when he went to the track. I answered that he has lost all credibility long before going to the track and if he wanted to keep being so troll he is going to be called out and going to the track isn’t going to fix his clear hate and false babble.

Troll wanted to try and make a big deal out of the

JHM clutch kits…when in fact that PP is an OEM PP and the issues are happening on OEM cars so it wasn’t an JHM issue it was a OEM issue… JHM upgraded to the 5R to solve all the clutch issues anyone might have… Trollmatow looked stupid…

JHM had a customer with a crank pulley that had some issues… Trollmatow went on and on bumping the thread hopeing to expose something… he did… it came out the pulley was installed backwards… Trollmatow looked stupid…

JHM had a customer after several weeks with a JHM experienced motor issues… Trollmatow tried to make a big deal about this… Turns out the customer had the same issues several NON tuned RS4 owners had…trollmatow looked stupid…

People ask about JHM tune… By far the best tune out there for the RS4… Trollmatow goes on and on about being concerned… he mentiones pinging saying lots of people have pinging issues on JHM tunes… Turns out RS4 guys have pinging issues stock…then JHM did have a Beta program YEARS ago that was experimential and volantary for the RS4 one maybe two guys had a ping issue… it was solved in the BETA program… since the official release no one has ever said they have ping issues with the JHM tune… Trollmatow looks stupid again…and again… and again…

At some point most poeple see he is a fool and his hate and lies only reduce his relavence in the comunity. He is really laughed at…so he buys a blower with no long term testing after he blaaaas on and on about how JHM might be unsafe… on a kit with NO LONG terms testing and some odd issues with telling people about boost he jumps on the kit…We all have to laugh AGAIN at him as this is him being a fool… Is the APR kit good thats not the question here. I like APR…Don’t get the boost issue and why they didn’t talk about it…still Trollmatow is just a fool and a hypricate whos actions and posts have proven he is a fool…He has been shown wrong countless times and tries to preach safe products with testing… yet just days after the APR kit is talked about he has one… goes aginsed all he has said…

Now if he comes out and admits to being wrong for like the 50th time. People can probably look at him and start to think different but I don’t see him doing that. He can track his car 2000x and it wont get him any more respect.

#14

Rev to 5500 rpm and dump the clutch (because the wheels won’t spin at any lower rpm) Hold for 3-5 seconds. Right gibson?

#15

Lol, the worst part is how laughable 3-5seconds is. That is a fucking eternity, even for a RWD with slicks, maybe he was watching top fuel dragsters for tips.

#16

I appreciate the thesis Chris but once again it has nothing to do with anything that matters. This isn’t a popularity contest. The bottom line is figuring out what each company has to offer for the platform. We now see what a customer has been able to do with an APR S/C. What are the JHM stage 2 S/C owners running with their cars? I actually don’t know, so appears to be a reasonable question to me. Mistro, I am no expert at drag racing. It’s simply not what I personally do often. Now if you wish to talk about a road course I highly doubt there is anyone on this forum with similar power/weight who would be anywhere near me on the track. But once again, has nothing to do with this thread. It’s pretty sad how often you guys choose to go on tangents instead of being able to focus on the topic at hand. I can promise you that flyingtomatoes spends absolutely no time being concerned about ur personal feelings toward him so it may be a good idea for you to move on and not spend so much time focused on him as an individual and just looking at results for what they r, just results.

#17

Just poking some fun. When you aren’t familiar with a topic, you shouldn’t go around giving advice as things you apparently did based on things you may have actually only read or saw somewhere.

I don’t talk about how I precisely adjust my camber, dampening, rebound etc before I hit the road course… Because I don’t.

#18

I can say with complete certainty that I haven’t given any advice to anyone about drag racing in 2013. So lets stick the the present. Clearly since there’s a thread we may as well get that 1/4 list updated to show the fastest customer driven 1/4 time.

#19

Ill take you up on that road course challenge lol

Jeebus, What a joke.
