Flippen fast
On my VBOX, I clocked
0-100 km/h in 4.3 seconds
60 ft time in 1.9 seconds
I am more than chuffed, as it is faster than my REVO 2+ S3

Come on guys, a video isn't that hard to take...make some of us happy too!
Pictures tell only one fifth of the story with that car...
I vboxed my car again yesterday :
4.1 seconds to 100km/h....................... I am suitably impressed

Have you recorded a 1/4 mile with your vbox with launch control?
I'd be very interested in the time and top speed.

So, I filled up some BP 98 octane (which you can not get at the pumps in SA) this weekend.
Finally got a chance to VBOX the car properly. Here are the results :

Super times :-)
I knew the car was quicker than the auto express drag race with the 1m - qtr mile 13.6 and max speed 103mph.
At 12.3 it destroys the 1m :-)

Interesting fact 1 : The RS 3 loves octane !!Originally Posted by SteveCuz
Looking at the VCDS logs with 98 vs 95 (pump fuel in South Africa) :
The car has a considerable amount of cf's on 95 and therefore the timing advance is not fantastic .
On 98, its like magic : all the cf's disappear, and the car make 8 degrees more timing advance.
Interesting fact 2 :The STronic and the Launch Control is amazing.
RS 3 puts the power down brilliantly.
I reckon the power of the car does not play the largest role in the performance of the car, it is the TRANSMISSION.

That is impressive numbers...
Put some 102 octane fuel in it!!!
Wery nice times this confirms some of the good times car magasines has got with the RS3 and TTRS.
Come on guys, still no videos?
Personally I don't care weather its 4.6 or 4.2, I just want to hear the sound it makes doing any of those times
With 98 RON fuel, the RS3 will do 0-100 kph in 4.3 seconds using launch control and S mode. The noise makes the hair on your neck stick up like a loo brush. Electrifying stuff.
@The RS6 - it's not that easy to take a video safely but there are loads already up on youtube -
Steve
I've seen all of those on youtube
Wanting moARRRR
