Default New B5 A4 1/4 mile ET and MPH records set tonight.

Was able to make 3 runs tonight before being told I couldn't run anymore.

10.827@135.891
10.693@135.218
10.811@136.277 spinning bad in 1st
All beating the record that was held by Ctapp.

On the 10.69 run my 1/8th mph was 108+.


Runs were done at SAC in 70-80 temps. Once the sun went down the temps started to drop by traction also went away.

Not too going from 11.3 at 129 mph down to 10.69 at 135 mph with just a tranny swap.

Once I am able to put all vids of the 3 runs together and get it hosted I will post them up.

Default Awesome Mike! Congrats! Are these your first 10s passes?

I haven't kept up with your times as much as I should have. Meant to talk to you @ the SCE GTG but you looked pretty comfy in the PureMS tent

what trans is in there now?

Default Correct. Went back to my OEM 1.8 trans that I was running before going to the 2.8 trans.

Just has better gearing for the 1/4 mile for my setup, which allows me to use all of my power band in 4th gear.
