I was going to try a bit harder to get the best possible time on this set up (you kow the whole, I drove it here and back etc..) first and then see what I can do with the crazy slicks etc.. The front 275s have to go though. that's just plain silly
I'll see what I can do after talking to Garret... Line-lock, slicks etc... I'll be a PorVette soon

The thing is if you go too far in the drag race direction you kind of defeat the purpose. You still want it to be primarily a road course killer that can still rip a 10 sec qtr mile pass. At least that is my intentions. If I wanted the fastest qtr mile car I wouldn't have started with a tt in the first place! Alex you with me or are you going for an all out drag racer?

I'm still surprised... I've seen heads&cam 6spd Vettes out here in NJ pull 1.4 and 1.5 60fts with slicks and skinnies. It's pretty amazing considering they only put down maybe 400-450RWHP!
Any ideas on how I can improve my 1.65 to 1.67 60fts in the Audi? I'm already running 4 drag radials...

You get your **** handed to you by some mouth breather in his pushrod V8 and you want revenge! And you want to show all of them that your Porsche (or late model, high tech, IRS weapon of choice) can take them!
Hehe, it's all good!

Interesting. I saw a guy at E-town in NJ, USA run a 12.2 in a basically stock E46 M3. It had gears, an intake, drag radials, and some minor weight reduction. Guy was definitely driving his *** off. I believe he said he pulled a low 1.6 60ft with it at Atco Raceway.

Maybe the fastest M Coupe, but I know there are quite a few E36 M3s deep into the 9's.

The next fastest E36 M3 is Gene Liu's 10.623 @ 133.39 mph run in 1999. The car has since been retired.
