Explain.....A 2.1X 60' is good for a FWD car on street tires. With slicks you would be looking at about a 1.99 or so.

Highway rolls are all about trapspeeed. NO need for traction or low 60ft's and all that. So Type R, if ur trapspeed is higher than 106mph which is the least for a A4 C5 Vert then u will be able to beat it. I raced a C5 vert once with my Camaro and i hardly pulled on it from a roll. We started from 30 to 110 and i just gave him about 1 car and half. And look at my trapspeed!!! He was as fast as E46 M3 since i did beat one too.

Oh, I gotta call BS, because my friends girlfriends brothers aunts dad had 3 CLS' with the 3.5 conversion and they are dogs, one of them has a new Comptech blower on it and he has only pulled a 15.3 in the 1320 with a 1.75 60 ft.

Sorry I couldn't resit, from what I've read hardly anyone KNOWS how these cars will run with the 3.5. Everyone is quoting Vette times, well, guess what, on the street cars can be much more evenly matched than on paper.

Good Kill!!!!

I can't wait to see what kind of track times you pull.
