at my local track, the APR Stage3 S4 (same package as the car on Streetfire walking the blown S2k) traps in at about 112mph. Another S4 with a similar setup but with toluene in the tank mixed with pump clocks in at 115mph. I think it might take a bit for an S2K to compete with that, but I am sure it can be done

I appreciate all the expert guesses, as I am quite naive when it comes to other performance vehicles.

But, I will say I am fairly decent at keeping the S where it needs to be and at the right times, so unless I have a factory dunce, that Audi was WAY quicker than the S (bus lengths is not an exaggeration.)

I know we are not driving the fastest things on the road, but I was a little surprised by what looked like a family VW with nothing more than aftermarket wheels and a very loud (pair?) turbo...

Cool, for sure!

If you talking about a modified RS6, you are talking about a low 12 sec./ 12 flat car. That would put buslengths on you. not to mention turbo engines have crazy amounts of tq, so from a roll it would seem even more disparate.

an RS6 is pretty easy to distinguish from other Audis.. did it have big ass fender flares? Those cars are beats.. The guy I purchased my S4 from (now totaled, RIP ) replaced it with an RS6.. a few mods later he was putting down 567 all wheel horsies.
