[BiturboS4] Loss of an S4 and new cars

[California Fields]

[ Converted text/html to text/plain ]

Erik, maybe Audi will give you enough money so that you can get into a new S4!
Then you can tell us all about it :)

Speaking of other cars, I had a chance to drive a friend's E36 M3 yesterday.
It was fun as hell ripping around town in the twisties. His rear Toyos were
nearly bald, but it was amazing driving a car that oversteers.  Great balance
and the engine pulls to 7k rpm (had Dinan chip and UUC exhaust). Nonetheless,
I could tell immediately that the car was slower than my chipped S4 (butt
dynometer). The handling/balance made up for the "slowness" though. I now know
I that I need to upgrade my stock S4 suspension to compete.
