LS2 CTS-V vs. 2007 Audi RS4 4.2 Had just met this guy who is a friend of a friend. He also previously owned a LS6 Maggie'd V. Nice guy. We were checking out his car and we departed and happened to head the same way. My 200lb buddy is still in the car with me. RS4 = 6sp man, nice aftermarket valved exhaust, 420hp stock
1st light: He bogs and I destroy him. My buddy tells me that the Audi driver "is still working on his shifting"
2nd light: I tell him lets go from about 10mph in the middle of the intersection. I tell him that will take the driver out of the equation. We roll out, hit it at about the same time, he hangs near for about 5mph then the V walks him real hard, chirp 2nd and I put another car length on him 70 when I shut it down. Easily 2+ cars on him, he was a ways back in my side mirror.
Anyways, no vids sorry it was an impromptu run but I had heard/read big things on those cars (4.5s 0-60) but obviously in the real world the LS walks on it HARD. I think the magazine guys damn near redline drop those AWD cars to get the good numbers. I would have loved to have done a highway roll to see how it went but not this time.

Good runs.
About what I would have expected. They're nice cars, and sound amazing with the high revving V8's but they're also pretty heavy.
Nice kill, feels good to beat cars like that.

my buddy had one back in the days, forgot the exhaust brand, but the thing sounded like it was from another universe, it was sex to the ears. not the quickest around but the interior, seats, and sound = pure win.
