if you think something is wrong with the car take it to a dyno. 13.8 at 102..... sounds pretty reasonable for a first run to me. is his car capable of 12's? maybe. but what the car is capable of under perfect conditions and driving is very different than what "I" am capable of in said car.

 

Maybe he didn't "have his groove on"

Last night, when I ran at the track, my first 3 passes were all 13.6. I dumped some air out of the tires and I was at 13.4 for the next 10 runs.

Then, about 9:30 PM, I made two more passes. I didn't change a thing, but ran 13.1 back to back. Why? Air temp!

So, in the same night, I started at 13.6 and moved down to 13.1

 

Higher gears and some drag radials will put him in the 12's easily.

 

The first gear ratio in the A4 tranny is higher numerically than in the M6 (3.06 vs. 2.66). With 3.23 gears, the A4 has more total torque multiplication than the M6 in first gear (9.88 vs. 9.10). Every gear after that the M6 has more, but from 0 - 45mph the A4 has the advantage if you just look at gear multiplication. This is just one reason why M6 guys prefer to race from a roll, the A4 is better out of the hole.

I am sure there are plenty of people who will tell you the A4 can hold its own stock vs. stock.

 

hes gotta suck at driving or something......my car ran 13.3 stock with balder then **** tires
