Default '01 WS6 M6 vs '00 T/A A4

Just bought the WS6 and had to race both of them before I sell the '00 T/A. Took with an old camera so its a little hard to see whats going on. First 2 races were from 55 and 60 and the WS6 is the camera car. Last 2 races are in the T/A and start from 40mph and 60mph. Mods are in sig.

Haha sorry man. I always wanted a black ws6 6 speed, almost like my affordable dream car lol. I just wasnt patient enough with this first one I have. And Trans Ams were my first preference. If I couldnt find one I liked, Camaros were next in line.

All I know as far as mods go are the 4.10s, a lid, and I believe a flowmaster catback. The drone from it going down the road at 65mph is what gave it away lol. Could be wrong though. Only has 53k miles on it too. But oh yeah racing from a dig, if both cars could get traction, wouldn't of been pretty. Plus I'm not all that experienced yet at launching a 6 speed from a dig. Kinda afraid of the rear end breaking.

Ahhh the might 6spd + 4.10 combo! it really moves with those rear gears. specially race number 4 but i guess thats the low speed advantage of those gears. if I was drivin your a4, i would have sprayed ya in number 4

btw you ended up around 120ish i think. what gear were u in? just curious as how far the 6spd + 4.10 will stretch.

Been having issues with the nitrous or else it would of been used lol. My speedometer is off so I'm not exactly sure what the speed is shifting into 5th but I think its around 110, 115.

3rd and 4th are moving out but once I shift into 5th it dies off a bit. You cant really see it in these videos but my brother, who was driving the auto, and me both agreed once I got into 5th it seemed to stop pulling away. Which doesnt really surprise me though. Personally I'd prefer to have 3.73s but I'll take what I can get with these 4.10s . I'll just be sure to not race similarly powered cars above 120 lol.

Nice races! It's always fun seeing how your new car compares to your old one.

You gained 150 rwhp from a 100 shot?!

For sure . Plus I rarely get a race as it is lol.

And yeah that smilie was the same reaction I had when I saw the dyno numbers. I thought for sure it was 150 shot but the performance shop confirmed my jet setting was only for a 100. Have no idea why lol.
