That's a mouthful.
I weighed mine the day I bought it and it was 4120 with a quarter tank of fuel. No dyno, but being an A6 with a Rotofab I guess it's 475-490 at the tire. Seems like I need another 80-90 HP to trap over 125 mph. I know there's 100 different ways to do that - just need to dig into it. Thanks for all the information. Very helpful. Just as an aside, they closed Atlanta International Raceway about a year ago and that pushed my drive to a 1/4 mile track from 45 to 90 minutes. Real PITA not having a track close by to validate times and changes to your car. Good luck and hope yours holds together.

I was able to get a 124.95 with the JRE 125 package with an M6.
