I would like to run a 9.99 on this motor. I am going to have to pull it out after this year and freshen it anyway. The rods were used and now they are starting to show it. I am going to up the shot to 250-300hp, tubular K-Member, port the Fast intake, and fix the 2-3 shift in the tranny. I think with the tranny shifting right it would pull off a 10.30-40 right now. Oh yeah, and I need to lose 30 pounds.

My goal is to at least once beat everybody at Auto-X (even if I have to run slicks like all the other fast contenders).
A 9.99 pass would also make me giggle (dream on.........)

My other goal is to figure out how to drink lots of beer and not put on weight.

...on that note, what's the trick to putting on weight. I've been eating like a pig and actually exercising and the only thing I've gained is blood preasure.

With 4.5 meter gates that shouldn't be a problem this year.
Drink beer and not gain weight , well eat seafood at peters. It worked for me.

Hoosier has their A6 in 19" sizes if you're going to run the RS4 again

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp ... reModel=A6

I've got a set to try out, I'm told there slightly fast than the 710s I was using last year

-----------
On 2nd thought, doubt you can fit a 315 under your fenders

Thanks :wink:

Just got a call - both tie end rods are bad, they tried to algin the wheels but the rod ends have way too much play.
No alignment and no TÜV in this condition.
Great.

Someone up there doesn't want me to drive this car... :x
