Does anyone know the RS4 in this clip?

Not so sure I'd want to spit that much un-burnt fuel down my exhaust - can't be good for the CATs :?

Looks like a Quarter Mile Monster :twisted: Sure I have seen on another Audi forum before, think it does 10sec Quarter Mile times :shock: .....and jeez that clutch is slipping a bit :D

Dont think its an RS4 though, probably an early S4 with the bodykit. Rear lamps give it away.

Hmm, not so sure.

Mik, what makes you say the lights are different ?
I wasn't aware my RS4 rear lights were any different to A/S4 ones, so would be nice to know the difference.

The bloke doesn't like his engine much though, eh. Holding it on the rev limiter then dumping the clutch at the line :shock:
Too many toys, not enough time

He was in 1st gear for apx 3 seconds with the rev limiter kicking in.
Yes it looked like a lot of fun but he must have forgotten to change gear.
Without the poor 1st -2nd change,.the car appears to be in first for 1.6 secs, second for1..4 and third for 2.4

total time from start to changing out of 3rd is 6.8 -7secs UNREAL
Considering that 1st gear lasted for 3.2 apx.
if it had not messed up and lost it in first , that time could have been 1.3 sec less.
i.e. 5.9/6 secs to end of third.

it may have a different box I guess.
Or it is a very fast car.
Anyone know any more about the bhp and stats on this car.

I believe its this car here....

Rear lights on early S4's (pre 2000 Avants) had dark/toned reverse lights in the rear light clusters as opposed to the newer clear lights. AFAIK the RS4 is too new a car to have had the old style lights.

Re the lights you try telling Audi UK's parts folk that. They only have the later clear type reversing lenses listed. Thankfully scrappies know their stuff otehrwise I would have had to buy two rear light clusters for my S4 a couple of years back at £90 each!!

PS What an animal that car is :shock:
