Dunno but not at all surprised, I've had a run with an FQ400 before and had to back off from fear off going into the bumper. I pulled away when we got to a dual carriage way part.

LOL, looks like you've been rumbled!
Quite surprised at some of their comments, I thought it would be a bit of a slagging off but quite the opposite.

Try the FQ400, it's a different beast and far harder to pull away from. The fact that the guy stalled it at the lights helped me on a couple of occasions. The clutch on them is a bitch!

Agreed, I'm a bit surprised too. I don't go around racing everyone, that's not Audi like. But I really hate people racing up my a**e, and then get angry. hence this!

EVO-owners are generally nice people with interest in other performance cars.
This opinion is a bit biased however,because my former car was an EVO V RS (=light weight version)

;great cars with very direct steering and you could choose from 3 different gear&diff ratio's(at least that was with the V&VI RS versions.

in other cars ive had when someone came up close behind me id floor it irrelevant if the car behind was faster or not. but when they do it sometimes to the rs well its rude not to teach them a lesson!

You may well be a better driver, but I always thought after waqtching TG FQ400 against a Lambo V12 that a stage 2 RS4 was too much for it, however:- ...
