Default Finally got my 11 second pass!

Well I did it today,went 11.94, followed by an 11.97 pass. My a4 tranny is shot, and my converter is not locking up. Big winter project coming up, but just glad I could change my avatar before the swap.

Congratulations. I'm glad you got it before winter came. I think you will be amazed how well you will run with a fresh transmission.
