    Very difficult to say, or lets put it this way how much wheel spin do you have off the line? BF's will improve your o - 60 foot time and thus will improve your overall run, note that you could also consider ET streets as they seem to be doing the business as well and would also like to use it if ever I start racing drags again

    Good stuff man, keep having at it...

    Also, for those insterested, while digging around recently I found this comment about the ABD drag truck…

    As for Nate....that Corrado is weighing in at pretty much the same weight as our Rabbit(as is with every other N/A'ed import)....trust me he cut the $hit outta that thing....I believe its under 1800 lbs with driver easily.

    That truck has been like sasquatch when it comes to details...

    Hey guys. I went to a 1/4 mile track today to try again. (2.1 20v pickup) I switched to a full radiator and alternator setup, and with my fatass the truck is probably around 1825 lbs now. I also switched to a 23 inch slick over the 22 to try and keep it off the limiter. I made 1 pass and ended up with a 12.31@110mph. Previous was 12.45@98mph. Distance was about right shifting at 8k and finishing about 8k in fourth. Seat time might chop that et down, I hope. We have video, but the board wasn't working. Here is the time slip, 1016 left lane.

    I am still trying to make a 1/4 pass without breaking. It was a huge wasted trip to mason dixon.

    Matt wanted me to post in here so here goes.

    Only got 6 passes in but ran a personal best of 13.614@99.72 1.954 60ft Sunday at Show-n-go, had a few 13.7X@100 runs, slowly chipping away at my et and getting closer to my goal. Took all last season to get the car into the 13s after running 14.00 for what seems like forever. Ended 2012 with a 13.863@97.83, over the winer I changed up my exhaust, lighter wheel and slick combo and shed a little weight. Car weighted 2400 with me in it at show-n-go this past weekend, that was with almost a 1/2 tank of gas, last fall weight with driver was a hair under 2500. I can easily get the car down to 2350 with me in it with a set of skinnies, less gas in the tank and pulling the rear bumper rebar.

    I need more seat time and with island dragway shut down, it looks like all us north jersey folks have left is englishtown test and tune nights, which is a pain to get to during the week. Atco and maple grove are both 2 hours away from me. Ultimate goal is to get the et down to 12.99 or better to get myself on the top 50 list. It be nice to try and compete in a 12.50 index class too. It's obtainable, but I need more seat time.

    Current setup is

    100% stock internals 135K+ mile 12v block and head
    OBD1 Distributor w/ TT cam chip
    mk4 hg
    one step colder plugs (chip runs rich, seemed to foul the ngk 5's alot)
    supertech springs
    schrick 268's
    homemade 2.9 clone upper manifold
    2.9 throttle body
    turn2 clone intake
    1.8T IAT
    atp catch can
    obx crank pulley
    a/c and p/s deleted
    home ported exhaust manifolds and downpipe
    3" custom v-band exhaust with magnaflow muffler
    bfi mounts all around
    12lb autotech flywheel w/ stock sachs clutch
    quaife diff, 3.9 r&p, stock vr6 1st-4th gear, .715 5th gear
    02J shifter setup, 42DD metal cable end inserts
    Metal shift bracket bushings and audi TT short shifter
    corrado trans brace
    raceland coilovers raised up almost to the top with fresh bushings through out the car
    15lb deka battery
    street wheels are Drag dr-23s which weigh 14lbs a piece, I run them on the rear at the track
    22x9x13 MH slicks on lenso vpd 's

    And now for the shout outs haha, I wanna thank Paul for always giving advice/answering questions when I message him. Matt Ivan for the positive reinforcement whenever he sees me, James at caste systems performance for all his help and shop usage, my good friends duke_962 and Roy32 for staying late with me at work and helping with the car and Ben (bonesaw) for all the extremely late nights in shop, helping me get the car together and giving me his leftover junk. I spend 48hrs a week working at a vw dealer, some nights, I want nothing to do with cars after work.

    Congrats to both of you on new bests. Looking forward to seeing some new cars on the list this year. Veersixx you have the mph to run 12's just need to work on that launch as you know. One tip - make sure you are using a decent low pressure tire gauge when checking the pressure in your slicks. Even a good quality full range gauge will tend to read off at the pressures you need to run the slicks at. You don't need the most expensive gauge just make sure its quality and the range matches what you are using it for. The 22x8x15's are such small volume that it doesn't take much air to change the pressure a decent amount. Cecco you already know what you need to do

    With the 22x8x15 I needed to watch the burnout length too, too long/big brings the pressure up further then you'd think.

    Maybe I'll kick the cobwebs off this year.

    This , I learned the heard way last season with 22x8x15 and a cheap gauge. Matt can verify that. I spent $20 for a 0-15psi gauge from summit and it reads just as accurate as a coworkers certified calibrated snap-on digital tire pressure gauge.

    It be nice to have some other all motor cars out for waterfest, it might make the event bearable.

    I got a flyer for this show in the pits at show-n-go, Its a 2hr ride each way but I wanna try and make it out there. I hear maple grove is a decent track to run at.

    I also wanna say my setup still nets me 27-28mpg with mixed driving. Better gas mileage and more fun that my daily driver '06 Audi A4
    91 GTI VR6 - the all motor mess, 13.614@99.72
    06 A4Q 2.0T - the luxury daily, quattro + 23lbs of boost = win
    92 JEEP CHEROKEE - lifted, loud, filthy and extremely missed

    i love racing at Maple Grove Raceway for events only.

    test & tunes and grudge nights are over crowded so i usually make the trip to Cecil Coutny Dragway.

    Maple Grove, Mohnton (Reading), PA is 45 minutes, 30 miles East of me.
    Cecil, Rising Sun, MD is 1.5-2 hrs, 65 miles South of me.
    Englishtown, Old Bridge, NJ is 2-2.5 hrs, 135 miles East of me.

    so regardless, my best bet is trailering around. which i do not own a truck or trailer. so as long as i can recruit the buddies to participate then i might be down.

    I'm considering checking out this event. The beetle guys want me to run 1/8 with them.
