Do it. I’d love to get into that type of racing, I’ve got too little time and too much on my plate to even consider it.
I’d love to come watch, looks pretty badass.

Stock S4’s are slow. I beat a stock S4 from a roll this winter in my 84’ N/A Supra. I was really unimpressed. Nice kill, but it may have even been a badged A4.

Ahh maybe. It looked pretty nice minus the beat paint. Was a fun run though I suppose.

wat?
Factory aftermarket? APR has no affiliation with VAG. None. Zero.
> The technology is new. Hence the prices being high.
Turbo technology is not new (relatively speaking). You are not paying a premium for a “new technology.” You’re paying a premium because of what you drive and the willingness for VW drivers to line up for overpriced shit.
I agree…the new generation of car people is out of control. Not only is the “stage” system still hilarious, but “Stage 1 = Stock” is tipping the hilarity scale.

**STORYTIME**
But at the end of the day…
This is Audi racing:
This is (modern) VW racing:
Audi “going for business:”

P.S. I think that chrome is like Stage 3. Must be APR too.

Audi\>VW
Even though an Audi weighs like 4 billion pounds because the drive train is made of reinforced concrete and uranium(Aka why a stock S4 can take 1000hp at the crank on a stock drive train) the 2.7bt makes the car a rocket.
Audi has racing heritage in its blood and the new 4.2l S4’s can keep up with last gen sti’s and evo’s on a track while keeping all the creature comforts.
VW… not so much. As far as I’m concerned VW is about 4 or 5 years behind Audi in every way, as they should be.
Also on paper:
0-60 GTI DSG: 7 seconds (6.0 launched)
0-60 00’ S4 6 speed: 5.9 seconds.
Theres a large gap. Then you realize it wasn’t from a stand still, it was a roll. An Audi s4 has a lot more muscle and the extra weight won’t inhibit it as much from a roll.

No, APR is an aftermarket parts/software manufacturer for VW/Audi/Porsche.
