Question How much slower is an A4 stock compared to M6?

I recently heard that the A4 in an Ls1 car is about three tenths slower *(13.5 et) than that of the M6 (13.2 et average) in stock trim. I didn't know this and always thought these cars were pretty close as long as you are not roll racing. Any opinions on this? Thanks.

I bet with some nice tires you can get the M6 to a 12.9.

Yeah that sounds believable. I was hoping for high twelves next year, but from what I read on here that's next to impossible to do with my current setup? Basically I'm not so curious about how fast the M6 will go, moreso how much faster is it than the A4 in stock trim? This is bordering on bench racing etc and so I appologize if I'm in the wrong section here. Basically without guessing etc, is the A4 not as great as the M6 stock? I know with a stall things change dramatically but what about with stock stall?

edit: mods, could you move this to bench racing? if you think this is in the wrong section (which upon closer observation-I think it is) please feel free to move it.
