I would probably say R8 V8 on 93 with bolt ons with the TVS1740 would go 10.7@133ish

Dunno. Doubt that trap speed. It only weighs 250 lbs less than the RS4 and that doesn’t equal 10 mph of trap speed. Power equals trap speed and the R8 is using the same nearly maxed out TVSr1740 that the RS4 used. It’s not making any more power.
Their best rs4 time was 11.15 @ 123
They also trapped better but with worse et. Your best et is usually not your best mph. Jhm for example went 11.12 @ 125.1 but also went 11.3 @ 126.7.
So I would say R8 4.2 would be more like 11.0 @ 126. Or 11.1.
Can’t forget that the rear bias on the R8 is significant… 80% rear 20% front…At best. That’s almost like launching an RWD car.
Who knows. Just my guess

You’re probably right, your guesses are always better than mine lol

S5 V8 is not the same as a S4 last time i checked.
B8 guys have to wait again?
Cue the riot…
yea I jumped the gun thinking it was for us, a buddy linked me. But as saki said another motor before us.
Pretty sure APR works on more than one platform at a time…

you may be onto something Ron.
everyone does
They don’t necessary release more than one at a time.
Has anyone else confirmed this s5 4.2 release? ie APR themselves? Just seems like an excited dealer jumping the gun, that pic.
