Well, if the guys trashing the Z, then he sounds pretty Yuppie....

i raced my cuz in his s5 w full exhaust, lowered, wheels and tuned and i beat him. but its bc he cant drive well. As long as your a good driver youll have a good chance. Hell at the track i stayed w a Porsche GT3 RS the first day. (then he beat me lol)

An experienced driver in the Z will beat the enhanced Passat. Nothing against Audi, just most of its drivers.

I havent been on tracks but I do canyon runs every other month. Just make sure you have an oil cooler, turn your VDC off and turn your sport mode on. if you lose just do donuts at the end. And say, "at least I can do that."

Most german car owners are a-holes.

As mentioned earlier, don't even attempt a track visit without a large oil cooler, you'll be in limp mode in no time and he'll destroy you.

For sure! lol. I ment the blimp heel toe auto thingy lol. The manual calls it sport mode. If he is an advance driver he can turn it off and heel toe himself.

I almost had the dealer install the blimp mode option on my Z, but i just couldn't justify the $13,000,000 increase in sales price.

Standing 1/4 will be a drivers race. You'll have the advantage on a road course due to his heavy V8 sitting in front of the front axle (persistent Audi design flaw).

(Whether you really did or not is irrelevant)

You should tell him this before you guys take off, then he'll screw up his launch for sure haha
