Cooling off (minus 2 audis due to boravr6 getting pulled over on the way there which I have video of if boravr6 says it’s ok to post online).

oh and by all means post the video :slight_smile:

how many cars at the track that day?

OMFG that subi??? I think Im sick. What kinda person has no color cordanation like that. That car looks like shit… maybe its the fact that boravr6’s car looks so good

Mitsubishi actually and he was running mid 12s IIRC.

Sp what did he get pulled over for???

No front plate
No DRLs
Driving a yellow car over the age of 30

Truth be told I am to be blamed for him getting pulled over. I was running plateless at the front of the pack, and the cop saw me (i was the first car in the group). Then he pulled up and saw Bora was like shooting fish in a barrel, so he nabbed him.

Let him go for being a good guy though. I guess this dragstrip is out in the middle of nowhere and they get lots of morons driving like morons and treating their roads like a raceway. Last time I was on the way there, two riced up Civics flew by me (passed on a solid yellow line) at about 100 mph in a 50 zone. Going past houses etc. Morons.

axel welcome to the revolution, and thanks for posting. Any pics of that other boring/slow RS4?

not that one…the other blue one was. That car was awesome. He ran 12.26 as his best that I saw. Looked great, sounded good, and launched damn well.

Thanks. Been here for a while but never got the registration link emailed to me ::slight_smile:

And sorry but the only pic of yours was a return pic after a run (and behind another grey audi).

Avant FTW. Axel get that supercharger installed and that clutch broken in and show up those RS4 punks. But seriously, that blue is seriously sexy.

Thanks :slight_smile: It’s being installed as I write this (well, this week hehe)

That said, the second those RS4 punks get their own supercharger, it’ll be sick.

Yup. Show us. I love the whole concept of that Avant

supercharger + avant + 2.5 catless + 2.5 xpipe + intake spacers + JHM clutch + lightweight flywheel + 20 lb wheels + good driver = 12.1-12.3 @ 115-116

Pressure’s on now!

Hopefully the launch assist will give me better 60 foot times :slight_smile:

This is the first side/back profile I’ve seen of the RS4 JHM exhaust. Is it just me or do the tips sit quite proud of the rear valence? Stock tips sit much further inwards.

They can be adjusted further in. I had the catback off so it jut needs some fine tuning.
