they had 1 B5 on a trailer with no bumpers on it (B5 class) and they were pushing it by teh end of the night. They ran it no clocks which makes NO sense because the drivers of that car hadn’t a clue what they were doing half the night…so it’s not like it’s a bracket racing beast that they want kept quiet. And it’s not like it’s a big money street racing car when the driver can’t launch it (see video here), which is the only other reason you’d run no clocks.
This was around 12.2 @ 120 at best. You can hear he doesn’t get too far into fourth by the time he crosses.

they tehn had Daunte Caul’s B6 S4 with a 2.7T swap, and 600 whp…which ran 14.49 @ 97 mph on its best pass
BEst part about that car is they claimed it was because the shifter wasn’t setup right and they couldn’t get into 3rd gear.
Really superstar? Here are the 2 passes I have slips against that B6 2.7T
Last time I checked, after 330 feet on both passes, the car was on pace for 14-15 second 1/4 mile ET
The problem is you’re dealing with some 22 year old kids who don’t realise how little they know. They don’t understand that anyone who has spent any time at a dragstrip realises they’re full of shit and their excuses don’t hold water. A 600 whp car doesn’t magically become a 14-15 second car because someone from the other team was watching you practice. It’s just a slow fucking car. And that’s fine…but when you spend 2 years talking mad shit about how fast your car is gonna be…and then fall on your fucking face, it’s karma in so many ways.
Oh and for the record, they did carpool…corbett drove. Not his RS6 because AMD is holding that car hostage. Not his B5 because who the fuck knows where that even is. No, it was an old busted Jeep cherokee they piled in to. It’s really fucking creepy how 35 year old Corbett who is married and apparently has kids spends all his time hanging with these high school and college boys. Something really weird going on there. It’s like he’s plying them with B5 parts. THat’s why he bought 7 B5 S4s…it’s like paedophile candy for those kids.
Since we know his 60 foot was shit because…well standard poorly running B5 stuff, no torque to move the car down low with big turbos…we know he likely didn’t get out of 2nd gear till after the 330 foot mark. At 330 feet he was 5.91 seconds
5.91 seconds 330’ = at best 14.2 seconds

Same story again…this time truly horrendous 60’ time (minivan stuff) and on pace for 15-16 seconds after 330 feet.
So much for blaming 3rd gear. (PS anyone find it ironic that B5 guy in a B6 body is BLAMING 3rd gear instead of praising it? lol)
