How to beat a C5....
#3
If you drive well and he doesn't, nothing. If he's an M6 you'll need a stall and that should do it. If he's an A4, a lid/cutout should do you just fine.
No it doesn't. Sure on the F-bods that didn't come with Z rated tires, but not the rest.

F.Y.I. ... I'd personally avoid a roll race with a C5 in an A4 unless your built up pretty good. Especially if he has a Manual. They're light enough where he'll take you on the roll and eat you on the top end ....especially if you don't know what your do'n! If you had a Manual I'd say that it would be an interesting match. But you don't have an M6...you got your self an A4. Stick to what their good at(A4) and keep the race with the C5 from a dig. Just my .02s!

Listen, If you wanna beat a vette or many other iconic cars without completely FULL OUT modding I would get two things on an automatic car.
1)Stall Converter
2)Nitrous
Vettes are not all that much faster than Fbodys. The only thing vettes have going for them is their lightweight and aerodynamic characteristics, but have the same drive train as the Fbody's.
Now Z06 is a different story but if you had the stall and nitrous you could easily beat a C5 Z06.

Go ahead and bolt up the headers... install the lid NOW (why wait)
and pay $800 for a basic, yet complete nitrous set-up.
You'll embarrass him badly if you hit the juice during a roll race.
