My LS1 got chewed up by the new Audi RS6!
Let me first say that this is a nice car and the driver was a cocky $hithead. I was heading to my buddy's house and this silver A6 got off the freeway with me. He is ridding my a$$ and passes on the right. I see the back and, OH crap! Its a RS6! He tried to get me to run on a usually cop infested road and I would not bite. He then got onto the left turn lane and I followed. We both made a left turn from a 2 into 3 lane road. He heads to the far right to pass traffic and hits it from a 15 roll with me in pursuit. He already had a 1 car lead and put another 3 cars on me to 100 mph or so. I think I may have faired better from a dig, A4s suck from a roll, but you take it how it is. I pulled along side to give props and the little *** just sits there smiling and ignoring me . BTW he had a passanger with him. So that grinds a little more salt into the wound.

Nice death. Too bad the dude was an ***. Those cars are really nice. And while you may think you could have faired better from a dig, don't forget, he is AWD. Anyway, I think those stats might even be a little conservative. I think I read somewhere they do even better than that. Better luck next time.

I read that the Audi RS6 edges the BMW M5 0-125. Since the M5 traps 110 or so,it is safe to say the RS6 traps around 111-112.

Rs6s are sick. As for the dig advantage, remember that AWD is an advantage only if it's in capable hands. A moron driving a car with AWD will bog off the line every time, however, a good driver will tear you apart in the 60. Good death, those cars are very nice, I'd like to run one.

with all those german traction control systems, i think even a bad driver can get a great launch or at least with an auto
its funny to think the E55 BMZ runs away from a RS6 like its moving backwards.
1/4 12.4!!!
wow id like to take that boat for a spin!

Sounds like it's time for some go fast parts.
I raced one about 4 months ago, when I had never heard of them. We went from about a 70 roll on the highway, and he stayed with me the whole time. I had a few mods, but not too much. Now, they don't worry me, but yes, they are pretty quick.
Better luck next time, and do us a favor, and MOD that thing. We can't have f-bodies losing to RS6's. j/k

Re: My LS1 got chewed up by the new Audi RS6!
the amazing thing is that he pulled me only below 80 mph. Over that he stayed where he was to 100. He walked me like the TT 911 I raced till that speed. I think another 25 rwhp and it would be even from a roll and my winning from a dig. So the predator and tb I have planned should put me close.
