Took the day off from work so I could go to the track for the first time and LOVED IT. Did not want to leave, but my friends forced me to. I was running stock in the A6. Went about 9 times. Here are the top 3.

One of the bigger tech teams running a very fast turbo modded Camaro rented a bone stock convertible Camaro SS to drive to and participate in the Holley LSFest this past year. They ran 4 or 5 runs in the quarter and could only muster 14.2s -14.5s. During the event, they put a Diablo Sport tune on the "rented" car and instantly ran 13.7s to 13.8s. Even the heavy convertible responds well to minor mods. Incidentally, not sure that Hertz ever heard the story or not???? LOL.

Agreed... I'm assuming he was running at Centerville? It's the only tracked listed in Drag Times... Elevation is listed as 352'. Based on his 1/8th mile ET, he would be looking at around 14 flat in the 1/4 mile... If in fact he was at Centerville it looks like it was pretty hot there yesterday so the DA was probably at least 2000 or more! So I would say corrected he would be looking at mid-13s... so, like you, that about what I would expect!
