Now my 05 M6 (stick) GTO, had terrible wheel hop issues. But drag radials reduced the wheel hop quite a bit. But my first trip to the track (bone stock), I had such terrible wheel hop I had to leave the Traction Control on just to get off the line without a lot of hop. The wheel hop was real bad.
oh, shoot, I forgot you had an A4. and yeah, the auto has that nice ability to transfer some of the shock back thru the driveline where it gets absorbed by the trans fluid.

why would you bet on Manuel?




and 3.73s can go in the auto as well. paired with the 1st gear ratio of over 4:1, it should make some interesting 60fts.
