Sport Auto - Nordschleife lap

[Surrey Sam]

A little under whelmed if I'm honest, albeit 7 seconds quicker than a C7 RS6. Horst von Saurma did pedal the previous generation RS5 around in a 7:59.

Perhaps it just needed painting to go quicker

Impreza Spec C was under 8 mins over 10 years ago, that's progress for you

Remap it, give it to Sabine.

Dyno shows 441ps this time, which is 441hp.
That 435bhp and a little down on Audis claim. Maybe this car wasn't run in properly.

Yeah but that's P-Mot so uncorrected for temp/humidity and air pressure you really need to see what P-Norm is. So 441 is prob about right.

7 seconds quicker than the C7 RS6, that's a huge amount. Its still a family estate car, did not bad I thought

I would be interested to see the difference in times between Hankooks and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S!

It would and they should say which they used.
From my vast experience of doing a total of one TF lap , I would say tyres are super important to Nordschleife times.
I think the really quick published times are on Sport Cup 2 as many performance cars have Cup 2's on the options list and so it's legit to use them.
