02 z28 A4 vs. 02 ws6 m6 He has lts+ory+hooker catback and a diablo.
Im going to race him regardless but just wonder how the turnout should be. Mods in sig
He is a pretty good driver.
I have m/t and i think he has 555 street tires but have have drs now.
Let me know in both situations.
My guess is he will lose if he has street tires and win by a car or so if he has dr's.

Well I assume you are running the 1/4mi?? I think if you can get off the line good you may be able to hold him off on the big end. Hell you have the same mods and even the same gears.....So i'm going with you on this one haus......

you didn BUY that LS6 intake did ya?....you have more mods it looks like unless he has some intake work done also...but otherwise its anybody's game.. you are most likely lighter....will take it off the line...its a matter of your car holding the top end...that 3rd gear is gonna tell it all whoever has it by then will win...unless you or him have major traction problems....
ill call it on you
ill call it on you

i raced an m6 when my a4 was stock. The outcome was he couldn't drive worth of nothing and I killed him 3 times from a dead stop until around 125 and then he caught, pass and pulled away from me. We also raced twice from a 20 mph roll and he walked me like a dog!!!! You will never win from a roll, but if you can get him from a dead stop your outcome will be a little better. Take the ET street off because you will bog from a stop. M6 has a better gear selection, remember when your are in 3rd gear 1.0, he is in still in 3rd and pulling hard only to shift into 4th 1.0 which pulls almost as hard as 3rd gear.

but im almost completely positive that M6's 5th is 1.0:1
(JRP's car domain page has a link and new-cars.com both have gearing specs/ratios on the different tranny's)

You are right that most OD tranny's only have 1 OD gear, but the M6 in our cars is one of the exceptions.
