My last trip to the strip I was accompanied by MystiqueSVT who recently purchased a WS6 vert auto T/A. He wound up running 13.5 at 105 with minor traction problems. His only mods were: "lid", and tb coolant bypass. We had a slight "roll in" one could say on the back straight and from the 60-130 mph we were dead even. I was running 5psi at the time as usual as my car is pointless on anything more as wheelspin is a major issue. My point is that anything is possible....A car not neccessarily made for drag racing running in the low 14's(that night) can be on par with a much faster car under certain conditions. Fastest et to date is a 13.8 at 103 mph. Hey...my best MPH was only 104 that night..don't give me too much credit!! Oh...and you forgot to mention that my top and windows were down when we did that! Talk about massive drag!!! Let me put it up and I think we'll see a different result! Oh...and watch out for the LS1 M6's though....they trap around 105-109...stock!! 2000 WS6 Convertible A4 13.11 @ 107.5 with a lid, Ram Air and LTs Gone:95 Mystique LS Young America edition V6, MTX 15.6 @ 91

I posted these trap speeds: 1. window up - 108.14 MPH 2. window down - 107.68 MPH 3. window up - 108.69 MPH All three runs were between 13.8-14 seconds So the drag created by the windows does play a measureable role but I would only say by maybe 0-1.5 mph or so depending on if all the windows were down versus one or two. These times of mine will be topped when I get my new engine project back together of course! Former owner of '99 CSVT - Silver #222/2760 356/334 wHP/TQ at 10psi on pump gas!
