Going to the track Wednesday

I just got a 94 Formula A4 Black. I never launched an LT1 at the track. What should my launch technique be?

The only mod I know of is the K&N Cold air Kit.

I'm hoping for a 13.9@100.

Is that possible, what should it be able to run.

Thanks,

Dan

I ran my 95 camaro A4 a few weeks ago. I also hoped for 13.9 but it didn't happen. The best I got was 14.4. Don't be disappointed if you don't get 13.9. It's not as easy as you may think which is what I found out. The problem I had was traction. I couldn't get good traction through 1st. I think my car is capable of 13.9 with some good street radials and cooler weather but I found that it's pretty hard to get that time on street tires.

I cut 1.8 60's on street tires so I know it's possible to get "some" traction with street tires. :D

Launching an auto? Pretty much pin it and go!! ;) (unless you have traction issues, then it's trial and error time:rolleyes: ).

I've got a few buddies with LT1's (2 A4's, 2 M6's) and only 1 of them has OFFICIALLY run 13's (a '97 Z28 M6, bone stock, 13.8 on streets, 13.7 w/DR's). Then a '95 Z28 A4, w/3.73's ran a 14.0 @ ~98, but on his 2nd run the time slip blanked out the 1/4 time & speed:irk: (was looking better all along than the 14.0 run, so probably a ~13.8 or 13.9). The other '97 Z28 M6 has run several 14.0 / 14.1's, but a '96 TA A4 has only gotten around ~14.5 @ 96 mph :shrug:.

Best of luck with it :). Have fun!! :cool:

i have a 1996 camaro lt1 my first time going to the drags i ran a 13.7 @ 100mph.. i have a ecu performance chip and shift kit, its also auto so its a little easier if your not good at manual to run a good time
