I raced a stock m6 lt1 in my a4 98 when I was stock down to the lid and we were neck and neck, I was only half a car ahead the whole time cause I got the launch but I couldn't pull anymore. I don't see how you'd have a problem with your mods, I bet even if you mess up the launch you'll be able to run him down. Post back with the results.

The Road is the great equalizer.
From a roll the m6 definitly has the advantage, given he doesnt blow the shift or leave at a non-optimal RPM. From a stop, the A4 maybe able out hole shot him and hold off. Alot of varibles to determine winner but I would put money on the LT1 car in either type of race.

My cammed LT1 made 351rwhp... doubt your stock LS1 would stand a chance.
ported factory heads/cam I made 383rwhp.
This guys LT1 will own the LS1 if his tune is good. All it takes is a bad tune on cammed car to make it a dog.
BTW, I raced a heads/cam/procharged LT1 when I had bolt-ons only and I pulled him by a few cars from 60-100mph. He dynoed 270rwhp with the setup and not tuning. He got it retuned and finished at ~450rwhp.
Slowhawk knows who this guy is. He used to go to Don's a few years ago, but I havent seen him in a long time.

My cousin with a 12 second lightning used to beat 10/11 second cars on the street all the time because he'd launch like a mother ******.

Ive smoked many cars that should of blew me away but its all on how you launch a car. An A4 LS1 if launched right will do alot of damage on the street. I proved it when I owned mine, i dogged H/C 5.0s, LT1s and even modded LS1's....So in my opinion the LS1 car has a chance and if this guy is betting money on the race I wouldnt take the LS1 so lightly...

There is a difference in beating the faster car because it spun and you didnt, but you sound cocky and act like you beat cammed LT1's all day. You should have stated none of them could drive or they would have handed you your ***.
