Ok i got 4.3 in my last car which was a 13 SRT Charger which weighs 1,000 pounds more then my vette and basically has the same amount of power. Havent done 0-60 in my vette yet as it only has 100 miles on it so far. I think its capable of 3.5 with no problem. The guys on TFL car are just bad drivers in general. Plus its a lot harder to get a good time with the manual. An A8 should be very consistent

3.6 with launch control A8. Are you saying I could do better with flashing the TC? Must find out.
This your run? Seems the LC is under 2000 on this run.
