Talking Keeping up with an Audi S4

I just wanted to tell you guys that don't be afraid to race faster cars. I have a C320. The other day i was racing my friend in his Audi S4. I was able to keep up with him pretty well, never getting more than a car lengths behind. He backed off at 110mph, but the race was still pretty close. However, he has an automatic. But then a guy in a C32 AMG pulled up next to me. I was smart enough not to race him.

C32 AMG, Volvo S80T6
very smart move

It would be a full waste of your time to have tried to race with the AMG model. 349 ponies is tough to keep up with, let alone catch. Enjoy that C320 and take on anyone that you can. That car you have is very quick and will beat down a number of cars in which the specs, on paper, show they should be better. Its also a pleasure drive.

Yeah The S4 automatics are quick but you can keep up with them, I had an S4 6 spd chipped to produce 300 horses man that car flew can't catch one of those manual S4's, especially chipped, however the 3.2 normally aspirated is a quick car for what it is and it should be kept that way, however if you want to race with the fast-demons just trade it in on a C32 AMG or SLK 32 otherwise you will be depressed when you get outgunned. There are lots of cars out there that you can easily smoke but don't ridicule yourself either and try to race say an M3 or an AMG or an S4 6 spd. you'll be wasting your time. But i know that urge that comes when you just want to smoke someone with whatever you got, hehe-good luck.
