my only real concern tomorrow will be my bald tires. clutch im not as worried about. otherwise I know the car runs strong and when it dumps boost and it’s been running plenty strong. I may coordinate with ron and find out exactly what he logs so I can do the same
NICE! I have no problem being 2nd 3rd 4th or whatever to someone as nice as David or Rich or a few others… I know they are into it as much as me… Oh I’ll be making a post soon… Let’s just say 11.97 isn’t the best anymore! LOL
good man… :o
11.93 lol. I was thinking he was going to bust off an 11.7 or something. Still awesome.
So what’s the leaderboard looking like here with the B6/7 S4, B7 RS4, B8 S5 and B8 S4?
B7 RS4 11.83
B6/7 S4 11.92
B8 S4 11.93
B8 S5 11.96? (that’s the one I’m not sure about)
Yeah I was hoping for better but will take the 11.93 especially with my trap at almost 118 given the decrease I have seen from the cats… DA was actually higher than I expected today as well… Hopefully, I will get one more crack this year… Wonder how I will do with a port, longtubes, and some of my brothers ideas??? Nothing like benchracing all winter! LOL
11.anything is amazing. Let’s not forget…this is 3.0 V6 with a modestly sized supercharger and the car weighs around 4000 lbs (within probably 50lbs). Frankly I’m impressed the car got into the 11s at this weight. I thought it would take a bigger blower (I was thinking on pump…and am still surprised how the car responded to race gas so well) or a 200 lb diet.
I’m guessing the blower is pretty close to its limits in and around 11.75-11.85 times for these cars (RS4/S5/S4). not sure what porting will get you. Anyone ever ported one of these before?
Stiegmeir has done quite a few CTS-V and ZR1 blowers and they see about a 10-12% increase in boost so given that I see 15-16psi now(haven’t totally reviewed my logs from today) I think that will help quite a bit… Also plan lots of weight reduction but not by removing shit but instead lighter brakes, battery, etc. i think I can still hit 11.5x with this blower and no spray but I could be wrong… I’ll try at least! LOL
id say LW rotors, LW wheels and LW flywheel would do wonders for this car but not for you i know that at the moment apikol has lw 2 piece rotors for this car and the bbs aren’t hurting you but for sure aren’t helping. i think you got more left in the car with the right provisions. excited to see what i run tomorrow, awesome times man, the anomaly ideas are out the window now
Strong run for sure! Good job PT!
Rich, looking forward to your results!
Congrats on the new times PT and 81 bear.
As I said in your other thread Great times bud!
