Lost to a Station Wagon

I was standing at red light and I see an Audi pulls next to mee and a guy gives me a look. I see it's a station wagon. I was like WTF. lets go. Light turns green and I had a ok launch, but this guy just flyis by me. By 3rd gear he was 1 -1 1/2 ahead and couldn't catch up. He slowed down. When I got close I saw a S6 badge. I never knew these cars are so fast.

i can't believe you raced an S6

those cars have 340HP...4.2 V8
also , watch out from the 2.7T A6 station wagon, those are mid 6's 0-60(autos)

the S8 does around 5.5 0-60...its a beast, 360HP

but the RS6.....450 HP!!!!


so basicly....don't race anything with the S on the back of the Audi's, unless you got a 2k2/2k3 6sp

She won't even know the y-pipe is on there. Your intake makes enough noise..she wouldn't notice. Just hide the stock y-pipe.

If I new it was the S. I would not rase him. Anyways, I caled a local dealer. to see if the can get me a used S6. They have one with 12k miles on it, 2001 model, certified, $52500.

He told me that next fall Audi is releasing a new S4 with 4.2 V8 (not W8) and it'll be available with manual tranny.

Cheaper for you to get a Y-pipe and turbo!
