Better than the RS6, wow I'm impressed. Must be a course that is more handling oriented than a pure horsepower circuit. I think if it was the other way around the RS6 would most certainly win. Either way it's cool. :addict: :s4addict:

WOW, that is an impressive list, thank you for sharing this Erik,
Were all these cars tested on the same day (same track conditions, weather, etc.)?
If not, maybe this explains the large difference in time between:
-RS6 Limousine #29 and RS6 Avant #50 (almost 3 seconds slower);
-Audi S4 4.2 quattro #28 and Audi RS4 #42 (2 seconds slower)
Are these differences realistic, in your experience?

The time of the Mercedes SL55 #13 is also very surprising, since this is not the best handling car, as I understand it (more GT, than track orientated setup).

I'm 99% sure they are not tested the same day, but I guess they would mention if the time is on a wet track.

I think it's interesting to see that a tuned car not always is faster.
Remember that a tuned car sometimes runs on 20" vs. 18" stock etc.

Once again the M5 was faster :D :bye: RS6


(Sorry , I had to do this! :bye2: )

Artur, yes but I think people care more about other stuff than 0.2 secs on an unknowns track. ;)

No one here said the M5 was a bad car. :hahahehe:
