I watched an instructor (with a decade plus of experience in SCCA,
rallying and track) in a '83 4000 with R-rated rubber lap cars at
NHIS, including an RS4 (driven by a green student.)  I believe
everything was stock, save maybe some better shocks/springs.

Then the guy driving the RS4 handed the keys to his instructor- and
the instructor nearly set the track on fire.  I think the only car
that came close was probably the supercharged Miata.

That V8 sounded amazing.  Not as amazing as a AMG Merc (with the 6.3l
engine) that drove by the bus stop a few days ago, though.  When the
guy gave it some boot, the ground shook...
