There are a lot of very nice Audi's out there... How they manage to produce all that power is beyond my comprehension...

This for example..
He he.. Not a good day to be a biker

There are a few vids of this monster. great to see it beat a fast bike.. Would love to see what he's done to running gear to stop the shafts snapping and wishbones being torn off etc...

It's not so difficult really, a lot of ''sharp'' practice.....

Thank you Julian... I was going to post something similar but didn't want to be the wet blanket

I am so tired of dyno "shootout mode" dick-slapping. They are a tuning tool... take an initial reading, tweak things and see if the torque (and calculated power) goes up or down.

I've had my S4 2.7T on the dyno four times and I have 4 different results, no modifications done in between...

The highest result I have is a 6'th gear run up to ~275 km/h @ 6.400 rpm, readline at 7.200 rpm. The lowest result I have is a 4'th gear run... They can't even agree on which gear to run the car.

Anyway.. It's 0,02 seconds faster than a BMW Z3 M on the quartermile

I get to do that 2-3 times a year, rest of the time is city traffic. So, 355 days a year I don't care how many BHP's my car have as long as it gets me from A to B. Actually it is so fast that I can get a speeding ticket in under 3 seconds..
