Mercedes C32 AMG vs RS4

[xscream]

I drove the C32, my friend the RS4.

C32 - Stock
ESP Off
AC On
Between 1/2 and 1/4 tank.

RS4 - Stock (+ 1passanger with videocam)
BBS Challenge
ESP On
AC On
A bit more that 1/2 tank.

Rollon from about 60mph to 124mph (95km/h - 200km/h)
Both @ 3rd gear.

I started about 0.5 car behind the RS4 when we both hit the gas, up to about 130-140km/h (something) it was even, then the RS4 had to shift, I gained 0.5 car and got up next to it. And after that the C32 pulled slowly so I got 0.5car in front of the RS4.

We also tried some 70km/h roll-ons but we had to end every race due to traffic etc. From 70km/h the RS4 takes 1.5 carlenght immediately after full trottle. But then the C32 catches up 1 car, we never got any futher with the 70km/h races.

My conclusion:
The C32 and RS4 are pretty dead even, atleast with me and my friend driving. I expected the RS4 to pull atleast 2 carlenghts because it feels much faster. Guess I got fooled by the comfort and lack of boostlag in the C32.

I will post video asap

You've got to learn your friend how to floor it! ;)

Hehe, for next race we'll switch cars ;)

It was hard to get a piece of higway without traffic, otherwise we would have gone for more rounds between 30-200 etc.
