So I was driving home when....
 

So I was driving home yesterday and had this guy in a blue Audi tailgating within a foot of my bumper at an on ramp right before merging into a parkway. I gunned it to get over the next lane and was hitting rev limiter before I know it, shifting from 2nd to 3rd to 4th. The dude was still on my Z's a** and tried to pass me on the right side. I let off the gas after looking down at the speedo. He let off also as he got next to me, then proceeded to do a ricer flyby after realizing I wouldn't race him. It looked like a late model modded RS4 (B5). I'm surprised how much the Z kept up considering its pretty much stock and the Audi has a hp advantage even in stock form.

Note: Please don't flame. I wasn't racing this guy, but he was trying to incite a race.

Edit: So apparently it was a modded S4 with over 500hp.

what road were you on?

the RS4 is quick...0-60 in around 4.6 with a 13 sec 1/4 mile....

similiar performance to the Z except they have an extra 2 doors

RS4 has almost as much torque as the Z in HP.

Probably a S4, but who knows. Just don't kill yourself or anyone else.

Audi has an hp advantage, but might as well have lead feet too. Those cars are heaaaavy.

3600-3700

People don't need to be in fast cars to drive like dix. I got cut off by a Land Cruiser today. I constantly get people rev on me, and I just never take the bait. Even if I whip dat azz, it's too much to be bothered with and not worth any of the risks.

:wtf2:

Did you smack it or did you grab it

I "punched it", although litigation prevents me from providing further evidence that may imply lack of consent :ugh2:

I mean, yay driving!

Interestingly, the RS4 only gets the jump on the Z off the line due to the Quattro. The 1/4 mi times are all in the high 12s/low 13s with trap speeds almost identical to the Z's. A Z with a catback exhaust, high flow cats, and an intake will probably be neck and neck with a stock RS4.

Cool story bro!

It wasnt an RS4. I know the kid. Its a 2001 S4 with 500+ hp

No, it was me.

He was pulling like crazy... I knew he had more under that hood. Had I seen this guy's car at a meet, I'd probably go up and compliment him on a nice ride.




Also, I'm not trying to turn this into a vs. thread or anything, although it will likely end up that way. I just hate it when people tailgate like that or people try and race you on public roads. This was probably a boring story you see once a week, but a las, I bored and have nothing better to post about :p

@kenchan: People who drive Honda Fit(s) just wouldn't understand. Here's your charburger and fries.:icon17::icon17:

At least an Audi RS4 was trying to race you, I had pickup trucks, SUVs, Priuses, all were trying to race me. that's sad.

I never had Lambos, Ferraris, Porsches try to race me.
