Well at this past race my best 1/8th was 8.006 with a 1.702 60ft at 85.06mph. It would have been about a low 7.9 had i brought the stall up to 2000 but it was only at 1500 for bracket racing. Also my race weight was 3175. When i was still at stock race weight(3600) my times are in the sig. RWHP is 265.

I think you should re phrase your question to "m6 guys with 1.7 60fts". A4 guys have it so much easier, i dont really think you could compare the two. Especailly once you get into a aftermarket trans and stall. The tq multiplication plays in a lot.

And if you start to look at 9 and 10 second cars you ll only need one hand to count up the m6 guys. Theres not too many.
