What mods are on the RCF? How much power is the Audi putting down? Are you sure it is not an S5 rather than A5?

Well, stock they make 340 HP from a supercharged V6. Test numbers show about a 5.2 0-60 mph and 1/4 mile in 13.8 seconds @ 101 mph. It weighs about 200 lbs more than the RCF. So with tune etc., it might close the gap especially from a dead stop, but then you have a full exhaust as well.

From a 40 mph roll starting in 2nd gear (downshift, hold), I would say you have the best chance against it going up to around 125 - 130 mph.

If after all mods, the Audi isn't trapping at least 116, then I wouldn't worry about it. Race him from a roll, where AWD is less of an advantage. Good Luck!

+1 from a roll. 50 MPH and you should get a win, if not it'd be a good race. Depends on how much power the pulley upgrade/tune makes.

Yes, they where involved in the dieselgate, have corrupted the germann politics and press with bribes and have some of their cars pulled from sales because of not respecting the required emission testings under WLTP. They also have one of the worst after sale service in the world, without going to far in this statement.
Now, Audi's are strong contestants when the street goes straight. But they tend to be understeering and fat little cows when the street becomes narrow and twisty. The best would be to find a track like Laguna Seca or a Touge closed track. They wouldn't have a chance.

I took down a 2018 S4 with an exhaust from a dig. I was on sport mode/Auto. Make sure you floor the gas from the get go if you are going from a stop. My F put the power down really well with 11' inch MPSS rears. Not sure what you have. But if you are on stock wheels, I am still positive that you can take it.

FBO NOS Rcf vs e85 FBO RS3 RCF had Full bottle


FBO NOS Rcf vs Hellcat Charge Bottle was about 65% full


Not alot (including me) thought the RS3 would be that fast but he has beaten a long list of cars.

what shot are you running? Seems like if the RCF can gain about 150whp we can run some good track numbers!! Have you seen what it can do in the 1/4mile?
