You're right, Matt.

I and you and other listers know the potential of a tweaked TQ. The
reason why I did this was the fact that the dude arrogantly thought that
ANY Beemer could outdo ANY Audi. He once asked why I kept buying Audis
to which I replied that IMO an Audi was a better car than a BMW. The guy
laughed as if I said something totally ludicrous. I got pissed off and
challenged him to race my Audi with his little Beemer any day or night,
dry of wet, asphalt or snow, strait line or twisties.
Granted, the dude was too dumb and did not sense a catch behind my
confidence.
