This may sound like a stupid question but did any of you try turning off the traction control before you ran? Because I think you handicapped yourselves! Example, Did the brown Cam. even have traction control or anybody else for that matter?

No kiddin, and still st** times,,,,hum....

 

I agree with "225tt" by saying driving skills can shave off more time than most would think. And I am not bad mouthing anyone posting drag times by any means. It takes some practice. But as a comparison. Back when my 225TT had a stock turbo APR 93 w/Milltek exhaust. It ran pretty consistent 9.0- 9.1 in the 1/8th mile @ i think..76mph. I ran a 8.88 (1.8 60') with APR 100 program one night, and that was my only run for the night.Which I think was great for a Roadster!People at the track were shocked. I actually was running a RX8 with a turbo kit and beat him (i'm sure he would have caught meon a1/4 strip.With those 1/8th mile time you would think I could get into the mid 13's in the 1/4....but that never happened. My best 1/4 mile was a 13.95 @ 99. That K04 turbo seems to run out of steam after the 1/8th mile. Or it could be the 90 degree weather here in Fl [:@]
We'll see what she can do with the APR 3+ kit at Fixxfest Oct 28th woooohooo!

 

You know its funny I smoked a stock 06/07 V-8 Camaro about a year or so ago. But that was from a rolling start at 40 mph. At the other end I was at 132 & the Cam was only about 117_118 tops. I never gave it a second thought that my times would or "could" have been that bad at the track. Sorry I know this is an old thread folks.

If you're running a consistent 9.0 - 9.1, you're going a bit faster than 76mph.
I just ran for the first time on the 1/8th tonight and got 9.532 @ 76.01mph.

Stock 2003 225.

I tried to launch from around 3k and 4.5k and either way it sucked. I wish it'd just get up and go!

All-in-all, I think I did pretty good considering this was my first time ever on the track.

Ps. Sorry to dig up an old post.

 

I have a 180 Quattro with Unitronic 1+ and here is my slip

60ft---1.8
1/8----9.29
1/4----14.35
mph----93.46

 

I have a bet riding with a friend that I cant beat a 14.5 or lower. I am hoping to have a good chance because I am currently installing my 2 step launch control with no lift shifting, so that should give me an edge. What do you guys think I'll run?

180 FWD, pushing roughly 22 lbs of boost, stage 2, 3"DP with full borla exhaust. TIP. Dogbone. Shroom filter. HKS SSQV set up as DV. N75J valve.
