He probably didn't press the Traction Control button down 3 times and then honk his horn 1.25 seconds afterwards. That's like Super-Pursuit mode or something..............[/Sarcasm Font]
Any guy in ANY car that does roll racing while driving an auto, I give you permission to "kick him in the nuts!" Did you ask him if he stuck it in 1 gear or left it in D? I'm thinking it would make quite a difference. Good kill though. But just realize the advantage you have roll racing an auto vs roll racing a manual that can choose the correct gear to be in.

I would have posted the video by now but he hasnt uploaded it yet. He said they didnt come out good, mostly speedo gauges. im trying to at least get that but if not we will go again and ill bring my video camera (not a cell phone) and get some good footage. I could only hope that our runs werent a fluke. Like i said it IS hard to beleive but im for real and they both gave me a lot of props. Ill have something for youll by next week, or soonner... i work alot.

I'd like to hear your opinion. You can call BS if you want but you drive the same car and know how fast it is. The run we had where I got the jump I was in a sweeter spot, he said his car bogged...but he never caught up and I was going pretty fast.
He also had a passenger and I didnt. Our next run he probably wont have a passenger and I may not get one good run off of him. Either way I'll post.

Stock, the 05-06 will downshift into first up until 32mph... so race one at 30mph and the A4 GTO will grab first. race one at 32mph, and the A4 GTO is going to grab second, even tho 1-2 shifts around 42-43MPH
It will downshift into second up until 70mph... so 60-69mph will grab second, 70+ will grab third, even tho the 2-3 shift is ~80mph
I have not seen the video, and i am at work now.
I ran WSFraizer a few months back, and his best time was a 13.4@108 IIRC, from 60 he jumped a car, it stayed that way until about 100-105, then i started gaining ground, and then passed him like he threw an anchor out.
My best time is a 13.2@107.6 :/
