I agree, anywhere from 13.1-13.4 depending on your 60ft and shifting.

Wow, I wasn;t expecting anything better than a 13.7-13.8 to tell ya the truth. I thought only 2001 and 2002's were running the low 13's.

Time depends on a lot of factors. Its a little difficult to accurately assume. However the times mentioned should be attained depending on your sea level. Good luck and enjoy.

On a side note...I see you're from W.L. do you go to Purdue? I ask because its where I graduated from

For reference, my stock 2000 Z ran 13.6 on a very hot and humid day. I was surprised. An SS with work done to it should cover the 1320 a bit quicker. I'll guess 13.2 or so. My launches were simple. Shallow stage. Left on brake, right ready to hit the gas. At the third light, stand on the gas. ASR off. Car was in D, not over D. The tires hooked, no spin. Best R/T .507 on .500 tree. This is for reference. I figured I'd let you know how I set up.

Low 13's for sure. The heat doesn't help right now but Ls-1's are strong.

Question

What does everyone think my car would do?? 2002 Z28, A4 with 2.73's --- completely stock. If the temperature's not too hot, would a 13.3~13.5 be reasonable?? I'm going to the track for the first time tomorrow as well.

THX.
