    Smoking an RS6????

    There's a setting most performance devices have called '1 foot rollout'. This setting is usually used to compare against times at the drag strip. At the strip, time doesn't start counting until your wheel crosses the line. This they figure is 1 foot in width. However, most car testers/journos...

    Smoking an RS6????

    You don't know if the 1ft is switched on. I had a Performance Box same as he is using. The setting is in the menu But i'm pretty sure its switched on in that test. His 0-60km/h time is 1.6. I get about 1.55 - 1.6 in my Stage 2 RS6 Trust me. I did over a dozen 0-100's when my RS6 PE was...

    Smoking an RS6????

    Well, that depends on how they tested it My personal experience was about the 3.7 seconds Audi advertises. The 3.4 seconds would be with the 1 foot roll out feature turned on. A feature meant for drag racing. But for some reason, most of the world leaves it on for other testing. Most...

    Smoking an RS6????

    Good question. I've always just turned it off when doing a run. I'll VBOX one with and without and get back to

    Smoking an RS6????

    Yeah. on the C7 RS6 at least. Press and it turns off traction. Press and hold for about 5 sec and it turns off something else (can't remember what).......single press switches it all back on.

    If he lives in Noosa Bay...he's doing alright...or funds are all tied up in a mortgage..... I live in a nice suburban area...But still most people think I must be a drug dealer when they hear the price of the car. Which is what I love most about the car. It's a Sleeper. When it's pop and...

    Late response....But here's my tears. The RS6 PE retails for 265k in AUS...with the options on my car....about 285k Luckily, I've bought a few Audis through my local dealer. I told him when I got the RS4 to keep on the lookout for a demo RS6. He found one 6 months later that had been built for...

    Smoking an RS6????

    It'd be pretty hard to do a burnout in the RS6. Mine has 285's all round. But even with Stage 2 tune it won't break traction with a launch in the dry. (That's with a 5 second hold on the traction button to turn it all off) I'd suggest putting some really ****** tires on it for fun and...

    Nice car mate. If your a fan of speed and not too worried about warranties. Get a tune for it. Made a huge difference to mine.

    Apologies. My local drag strip decided to combine events. I didn't like the idea of driving a 3 hour round trip to maybe get 2 runs. So, the next street meet is a few weeks away.

    Hey mate, I have this one. (Just on a backroad) 10.77 @ 128.42mph I've run a 10.6 before. But the gizmo stuffed up and won't let me get the detailed data. I'm taking the car to the drags at the end of the week for some proper runs.

    Hey all, Recently upgraded my RS4 B8 to the new RS6. Wow, slight improvment :worked till 5am:. New car lasted about 100km's before the stage 1 APR tune went on. Few weeks later went stage 2 with full milltek non resonated pipes. Lowered on H & R springs. (Will add some pictures tomorrow). For...
