Audi RS4 (mkI) beats the new BMW M5

[Erik]

A tuned Audi RS4, the old one ;) , beat the new BMW M5 in a test this weekend.

They did a total of 5 tests approx. 50 to 250 km/h (the M5 wouldn't go faster) and the RS4 beat the new M5 with approx 1-3 car lengths.

Turbos: Garrett 28bb

I guess the M5 driver got a really good look of the RS4s rear part :burnout:

Thanks Erik to once again prove for those which are not convinced that the B5 RS4 is the best car ! :rs4addict

I can see by their site that this RS4 has new bigger Turbos, a complete exhaust, motronic box, huge air filter box. Do you know if some work was done inside the engine ?

Late yesterday I get a phone call. It seems I know the driver of the M5 and he confirms the story.

His M5 runs on 21" (vs. 19" stock). I don't know how much difference you can expect with 21" vs. 19"?

He's going to remove the V Max next week :p
