Going to the drag strip for first time sat

[gointoscott]

Well I'm taking the S4 to the track saturday for first time.

Its the great lakes dragway in Union Grove WI (milwaukee area) Should be a lot of fun.

I'm also hoping of not breaking anything

I dont want to beat on it too much. so I hope I can contain myself, I know once I'm there I'm going to be tempted to launch it harder and harder, so I hope I can keep it at bay.

I guess you could consider my car stage 2 its chipped with piggies. but I have it set to boost about 15 psi. I'm planning on putting some race gas in too. why not right?

Im not sure what i'll do for times. I'm kind of hoping high 13's but I wouldnt be surprised if it would be 15's with my newbie skills lol

We'll have to see.

if anyone else who is in area wants to come maybe I'll see some other S4's there.

Well, what clutch do you have. Have you ever launched your car before? If you have then launch 400-500 rpms higher then you would on the street. Also your reaction timing doesn't matter whatsoever so launch whenever you feel comfortable. When your at the track, nothings infront of you so watch your tach and shift when you feel comfortable. Since its your first time out, I dont advise to drop the tire pressure too much, it will cause you to bog off the line making your 60ft slower.

I have the stock clutch. have 91,000 on the clock

I've launched it maybe 3 - 4 times the 3 years I've owned it. (bought it with 50k) on it

I wasnt planning on lowering the tire pressure at all. i'm going to do a quick pressure test wednesday night to make sure no boost leaks, maybe adjust the mbc a little for optimal performance. and see what I'll do.

your first run down the strip will be like your first time having sex:

you don't know exactly what your doing and its all over before you know it.

have fun!
