Track night with the ST

[JFam]

Took the ST to our local Test and Tune on Thursday for some more baseline runs. Thermal Exhaust and S&B of which I know are more audible resulting than performance. It is my second time to the track with this and just will not 60' and holding me back from some very good stock tune runs. I have advance trac off but when holding the brake and goint WOT at the line, once i release the brake it just goes flat / pauses momentarily. Previous 60' last time was in the mid 2.2's. This time I held the brake and brought up the rpms to like 2500 with part throttle and got the 60 down to 2.15 and ran a best that night of 13.601. Here is a short vid of my 13.68 pass at 103.46mph. I manually shifted this run but touched the limiter in 1-2 shift. The 13.60 I let the trans shift itself which seemed to be a little short IMO.



My duaghter was also there running her RS5 and her BF running his M4.

ST run (don't know why this one is not embedding like the other??)

RS5 vs M4

 

[UNBROKEN]

Turn traction control off…Advance Trac off is irrelevant since that is for curvy roads. Sport mode, brake hard to the floor, RPM’s around 2900, let the brake go and floor it. You won’t go sub-2 on a stock tune. Do the same process with a 93 tune and you should go mid-1.70’s
