No 'look at me talk' drive review, ...just walks the talk.

Wish I could drive as well, ... :)

Rs6 looked a bit of a handful.

Given it's largely higher spec, even with higher mass, I'd have anticipate a wider gap between the 2 after lap said time -1 second or so, on same brand tires.
RS6 looks bit of a handful as you say :) ....... but it's probably a handful many would be happy to take on if they had the privilege to afford:):)

It's a good comparison, but that guy's driving's not exactly pretty, so it'd be interesting to see if someone better could make that RS6 work as it's his driving that's making that understeer into all the corners

It’s hardly the slow in fast out approach which surely suits a big powerful Audi more given the traction on tap!

Why on earth anyone would want to track an RS4 or RS6 is beyond me.

Both way too heavy - fantastic road cars, but crap on track.

You will destroy tyres and brakes within a few laps.
