What would happen:

If a 99 T/A A4 with 92k miles and a cutout and lid raced a 02 M6 WS6 (stock) with 6k miles and a pretty poor driver behind the wheel from a dig and roll.

Also, what kind of times would the '99 A4 run in the 1/4?

if you lucky the 99 mite get in to the low 12s but it should be good good for a mid to low 13. The race will be perrty close if he can drive as well as you say. And at 92k miles who knows.

Depends o condition, but I would bet on the M6 everytime from a roll. From a dig with a poor driver, A4.

i don't know how "very poor" of a driver the guy is, but i'd have to say the A4 has the advantage, especially once he gets in his powerband.

hes pretty bad, hits the rev limiter, gets horrid launches, stuff like that...

He told me to ask: how should he launch a stock WS6 M6? (What RPM, how much throttle, slip the clutch, TCS on or off, etc.)

Thanks

A LOW 12?

I agree with the others, M6 from roll until he messes up and A4 from a dig.

With Cold street tires launch about 2-2.5K RPM's Full Throttle after you dump it, but it all can change if you start to spin, then its all feel, but have the TCS OFF!! This method Works ok for me, what do others think?
