S4, not an A4. The S4 comes with a biturbo V6 which puts out 250hp stock(which would do a 13.9 since it has AWD) but can be easily modified to around 400+ hp. The A4 comes with either a turbo I4 or a NA V6 which both put out around 180-190hp depending on the year. The newer 2.0T A4's put our 200hp and are more easily modded to make more hp. The NA V6's are almost never worth it to mod. One of the best "deals" is to get a A6 V6, since it is the same engine in the S4(2.7L biturbo), just slightly detuned. Now the new S4's just come with a V8, which isn't nearly as much fun to mod, even though they're pretty darn fast.

There's a little info on Audi's for ya. Oh, and I'll definitely be there on the 3rd. I'll try to get a few more people to come also.

Thanks for the info. I don't know much about Audi's, as you could probably just then tell.

We have about 30 cars going now. Some aren't listed because they aren't online. And some I can't remember right now. Thanks for getting more people to go.

Put me down as a possible too. I haven't had it on the strip since it was stock. Just don't tell State Farm.

Re: Bithlo Dragstrip February 3rd, 2006

Ummm, I might go. Might. Like if someone sneaks over to my house at night and installs a new rear on my car. Or I get not lazy and put the fairings back on my bike. Both are equally unlikely. But count me in as a possible.

Re: Bithlo Dragstrip February 3rd, 2006

Okay, It's finally the week. Just reminding everyone that we are doing this on Friday. I will be up there probably around 5:20 or so, and I'm pulling out of the parking lot at 5:35 pm by my watch. That way if traffic gets anyone they have an extra few minutes. Again, we are meeting at the Bridgewater Winn Dixie at the itnersection of S.R. 408 and S.R. 50 (Colonial) Here is a mapquest for anyone that has never been there before: http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp...&zipcode=32826

P.S. My cameraman got grounded so he will not be able to attend, if anyone knows someone that is planning on sitting in the stands and is willing to videotape the cars run down the track, then I will provide my camera and a few tapes, but I have to have my camera back at the end of the night in order to upload the videos for everyone to watch. Let me know.

Damn, I can't make it. Going to a marriage prep class and we have a meeting friday night. Unless they change the night I won't be able to go. I would have said something at the meeting if I had remembered that it was this friday. Oh well, I'll have to go next time. Have fun guys!

Re: Bithlo Dragstrip February 3rd, 2006

My father in law's birthday in Friday so we'll be going to dinner at Buca instead. I swear I think my inlaws have an inside scoop every time I try to schedule something. I was gonna go longhaul on the Power Tour in June to NJ. Now they've scheduled a family trip to Minnesota that same week. I told the wife to have fun. She got pissed. Finally, I was able to salvage 2 tour days from Kissimmee to Perry GA.

What time do they start running at OSW? Maybe I could get there by 5:30 get a couple runs in and leave by 6:45 for dinner at 7:30. Hmmmmmm

Re: Bithlo Dragstrip February 3rd, 2006

WOW! I would love to try the ole 77 ls1 the LS1 at the track...

I have no hood though?!?! so I can't get through tech.

Maybe I will bring the 00 SLP SS. It has not seen the track in many many moons.

Re: Bithlo Dragstrip February 3rd, 2006

Chuck, drags are from 6:00 pm until 10:00 pm, but they don't let us start running until around 6:10 or so, so you would only get one run in. That's it.

Sean, I've never actually seen your 4th gen, I've only seen the 84 which was sold a really long time ago. Tells you how often I get out these days. Your more than welcome to come out.

Re: Bithlo Dragstrip February 3rd, 2006

Tech? At OSW? What's that? I saw them get pissed off once. A guy was pulling his buddies car up for him. He had an open beer in his hand. He almost ran over all the motorcycles. I'm not sure what part of that they were actually pissed about. DanB has seen a lot worse.

I'm not going to make it out there in all likelihood. I was gonna bring the bike, but I haven't fixed my electrical gremlin yet. Any electrical engineers on here that are bored between now and then? Dammit.

What's going on with the VTR? I'm no guru, but I sometimes get lucky working on bikes
