I was just going to say that...hope the times are better this time.

[audi_ch]

Here we go

0-100
MTM 4,2 (702PS, 785Nm)
Abt 4,5 (700PS, 800Nm)
Sportec 4,4 (650PS, 760Nm)

200-300
MTM 25,8
Abt 21,5
Sportec 23,3

0-200

mtm 13,0
sportec 13,0
abt 13,9

Mtm is not realy faster than he was bevor 13,7 to 13,0
Temprature was 20 degres..

The car is just to heavy

Compare m5 g power hurican with 730 ps 200-300 time in 16 sec

But rs6 is the most powerfull and fastest avant.

Sportec was on 22"
mtm on 21"
and abt on 20"

[Erik]

We all want more, but all I can say is that 0-300 km/h in a 2.2 ton Estate in these times is a VERY good result.

The difference between 13,0 and 13,7 is more than you can imagine.

0-300 km/h

Abt 35,4 secs
Sportec 36,3
MTM 38,8


Compare with 0-300 km/h:

Porsche Carrera GT (AMS) 34,2 s
Mercedes SLR (Auto Bild) 34,8 s
Mercedes SLR (AMS) 36,9 s
Porsche 997 Turbo (AMS) 40,7 s
Corvette Z06 (AMS) 41,8 s
Aston Martin Vanquish S (AMS) 57,1 s

I am impressed...

[Ruergard]

Well, hitting 200 km/h in 13 seconds is damn quick. Hitting 300 km/h in around 35 seconds is even more insane with a 2 ton estate-car. Especially when you consider the size of the wheels..

I'm with Erik, impressive!

[Mr Balsen]

Sportec was on 22"
mtm on 21"
and abt on 20"

Such difference in wheel size is absolutely stupid. Every car should have had exactly the same wheel to compair fairly the performance between the three cars...

Hi Erik

i do agree with you, it is a fantastic time for an estate, but be carefull with the source, it is sportcars= auto bild, Just remember they tested the new lambo lp560 with 34 sec to 300kmh.

The same lambo was at nardo speed test with almost same temperature, he made there 40 seks to 300kmh

the slr did 29 in the same nardo test z06 had 44 due to his long gearing

Hope on the next nardo is the rs6 involved as well, would be more comparative. A and the new gt2 did 36 sec.

And i dont believe that a tunned rs6 with wight horsepore ratio witch isnt that good as the porsche gt2, will take him

[mdk]

I am too impressed by the figures but there is something I do not understand.

Similar power output and torque tuned cars (MTM and ABT) seem to have big differences.
MTM seems much faster on 0-100 by 0,3 sec and 0,9 sec on 0-200 BUT dramatically slower by almost 5 sec on 200-300.

Maybe someone could explain reasons for such deviation.

Thanks,
Michalis

Wheel Diameter from my point of view. It impact greatly performance.

Frederic

[snoopra]

When we say "wheel size makes a differance", take into consideration that tire profiles can make all three "wheels" the same height, so rim size is not as important as tire size/height.

[audi_ch]

Wheel wight

[mdk]

True, wheel weight makes a difference and this should be evident at the 0-100 and 0-200 as well.
Remind you that MTM (21") was faster in both 0-100 and 0-200 from the ABT (20") but slower at the last stage (200-300) by almost 5 seconds!!!

[Michaël Barbé]

From the moment I read the results I wanted to know what the times would be if they all would run on 20inches! I would never put bigger alloys on a car then that.

abt is on 20"

Sportec has 650 hp and is faster on 22" than mtm on 21".. a bit strange

Indeed... Balsen: any comments on that?

[Erik]

This race would be funny, with a dog in the back (of the Avant)

0-300 km/h

Abt 35,4 secs
Sportec 36,3


Porsche 997/911 GT2 (AMS) 36,2 s

BMW-Alpina B6 S (E63) 41,5
Alpina B6 V8 Kompressor 49,9

The scans of the article: one of the first pictures the RS6 R (MTM) looks sooooo GOOD!
