[s-cars] RS6 Vs. ????

[Bruce Bell]

OK 2400/232=10.3 lbs/hp

RS6 at 4200(?)/450=9.3 lbs/hp

Should be enough difference to compensate for the losses due to the tip.
probably shifts a lot faster too! I'm a manual transmission fan too. Last
cars I had with a slush box were a '59 coupe Deville (great car for the
dating years!) and a 64 1/2 289 pony convertible. I suspect the tip is
nowhere near that world. The paddles should be great fun and Sibelius would
sound much better. On track days, I might turn up the heat a bit and play
opera! In my other life I want a Morgan, a lotus 7 and... sigh.....

a big pig isn't going
to be
very satifying on the track compared to something like a '70 911 w/ a
3.2 Carrera
motor- 2400lbs., 232hp, you do the math.
