The S4 should be quicker, but what are the 'real' results.

R8 420hp. Most S4s around 500hp or more. S4 should win.

Default I would be willing to bet the R8 pulls the S4, maybe not off the line but once aerodynamics

comes into play it's a different ball game... S4 might win the 1/4 mile race though... Besides i think 500 hp might be a bit generous for "most S4s"

Default yes - no serious off the line or high speed - but messing around for a couple

lights it was evident i was quite a bit faster. obviously we got on it at different times, were in different gears (a couple times in 2nd, couple times in 3rd --no official 'ok lets go at the same time' racing, but he could never pass me and when i let him get ahead, i ran him down fairly easy.

we never got above 80mph tho - we weren't on a highway.. so top end not sure. but i think most stg3 should easily pull.

he was definitely surprised..and despite the fact i knew i'd kick his *** in a contest of speed, i still felt the lesser of two awesomes. =P
