Blue - is it true they are faster

[vroomvroom]

Swap my black, black with black pack, in a couple of weeks for a new one

Sepang blue pearl this time....

Is it true they are faster

No 20inch v spoke wheels this time, dynamic steering or black pack but otherwise less miles, bit newer and different colour

Everyone knows Vspokes are faster, so the paint effect will be offset... plus red ones are the fastest

[Afsimba]

Speed is shade specific !
It's gotta be nogaro

[kmpowell]

plus red ones are the fastest

Blue is the DNA ....

Grandpa was a blue

Well if we're talking DNA...

And then...

Ignore them, of course it's the fastest..... Colleague of mine has the 19s and I really like them.....to the point I might try some. Currently on 19" winters and Dynamic is more than bearable....on 20s, not so much.

Well surprisingly the Black RS4 courtesy car really wasn't as quick as my Sepang which is unusual because as we know courtesy cars are incredibly fast

But in all seriousness I think the fact it had just 1800 on the clock had something to do with it!

Missed not having my buckets too.

[Astonished]

So DNA wise .... If Grandpa was red etc etc ...

Was Walter Rohrl the wicked uncle? Cos he had the fastest one and his was white ...

Mine's white

Fast

Just saying ...

And it's got the much lighter standard 19" wheels ... Smart ...

Just saying

So white and light ... Fast ....

Oh yeh, and great fuel economy, especially when I drive like my grandmother ...

[Graeme4130]

And it's got the much lighter standard 19" wheels ... Smart ...

:

ah, but heavier, taller profile, tyres

[Graeme4130]

The fastest car I know of is blue (kinda)

[Graeme4130]

Although saying that, in terms of actual cars, then F1 cars are the fastest cars, and Schumacher's won the most..... in a red car

[Astonished]

Ahh yes, the fast German ... But what about Ayrton Senna, one of the masters behind the wheel and his car was ...

Ok ... It was a mix

White AND red.

Perhaps that's our problem ... We need to embrace a bit of both colours !

And hmmm .. Still not sure about those flamboyant Italians .. All red and attracting the police ...but an RS4 does look good in red ... Even if I'm biased and think it looks a bit better in white ha ha ha

[Astonished]

And it's got the much lighter standard 19" wheels ... Smart ...

:

ah, but heavier, taller profile, tyres

Although, contra intuitively ... A Michelin Pilot Sport in 19" to suit is 25lbs weight and in 20" (lower profile) is 26lbs weight, from the specs chart. (US chart so in lbs)

So ... The 19" rim saves 3kgs per corner rim weight PLUS another 1lb per corner tyre weight, so about 3.5kgs per corner all up

Light and smart ...

Should have got Ramics too ....

Nearly dangerous ... Could have floated away ....

In all seriousness, if anyone hasn't seen the vid below (when it comes to fast cars, this is by far and away faster than anything we'll drive) take a look. It's things like this that I find utterly intoxicating. Just mental mental stats throughout:

Oh. And stop being so bloody daft. Ibis white = fastest. I even have it in writing from some German dude who works in the GMBH factory.
