Nice run! Quick car you have there.
I wonder if he would have been able to hook in that cold? Would have been interesting.
BTW, at what speeds did you guys let out? Did his car make any attempt to come back as the speeds got higher?

Its a blistering cold, dry night. Where the turbo loves you and your tires hate you. A balance of wtf booooooost vs oh, did you want traction?
I pull up next to a gorgeous white S5. Dead straight road. No one around.
Light goes green.......Nothing. We both pull away like grandma who forgot her coffee
. To see will this Audi actually give me a run, I goose it only enough to play the song of the psi people. Seemingly, I have his attention because he gives it a nudge.
But wait....another red light
It goes green and yet again we pull away slow.
Good good, he has fallen for my tarp. Its an Audi, it must be 4wd. So I need to lure him into a 40 roll.
Slowing next to him and dropping it back to 2nd at 40 sends enough of a line that he bites and nails it. I hit it at the same time and immediately it appears to be a drivers race. But wait...I start pulling ahead as my tires grab traction 3/4 thru 2nd, nail 3rd and I pull a half car. Catch 4th and grab a good car length.
Light up ahead turns read so I roll my window down.
Me...Is that an S5?
Him...yeah, its "only" an S5.
Me...only? well damn it sure is nice as hell
Him....thanks
Him...So In saw your plate and figured Id like to see if its actually fast.
Me...It is
Him....yes, yes it is. Nice job. Take care man.
Looked it up. I def did the right thing getting him to roll.
They sure get out the hole with a low low 13 but only at 107.
Id have been embarrassed from a stop.
Good times.

LOL Good kill! "Only" an S5...
AWD from a dig, I wouldn't be surprised if he would have had more traction than the panel truck, but that box car puts in work!

don't the v6 sc S4s trap like 118mph with ethanol / race fuel or something, with just a chip? Don't remember. I just remember reading something that tells me not to sleep on them in my ls3 vette

On a blue moon with a negative DA, and changing the pulley? Maybe. Otherwise it's a mid 12s at 112-115ish.

You are definitely right about the V8 badge. I just saw an Audi S5 on the way to work and it most definitely had a V8 badge somewhere on/around the front fender. I think the slightly older S5's had the V8, the new ones are definitely supercharged V6's.
