2001.5 Audi S4 vs Lambo Gallardo

This was fun, and quite embarrassing for the Gallardo driver.

Note: Tommy's Stage 3 S4 was the car being raced against Gallardo.
Note2: Tommy's car is running E85 Corn Juice .
Note3: Tommy's car killed a Gallardo before on 93pump (140mph 3 lengths)
Note4: Gallardo had E-Gear.

I don't want to talk about how much Tom's car makes at the wheels, but on E85 Juice the car makes 65whp more than pump.

In front
Tom had to let off 3 times over the course of a pull in order for the Gallardo to gain some ground. It was nice to see a close up look of a Gallardo shooting blue flames out the aftermarket exhaust though. Though I wish I knew what was going through drivers head when a 4 door sedan is sitting on your *** while you're flooring your 190k Super-car and not getting away.

Side by Side
Pull one 3rd Gear 60mph to 110. End result: 3 car lengths
Pull two 3rd Gear 65mph to 130. End Result: 5 car lengths

Yeah the car is stupidly fast, best of all, its not even finished tuning. The car WALKED the Gallardo very easily. I happened to get a glimpse of the drivers shocked face as we were pulling away from the car.

That's incredible that E85 nets 65awhp on a B5. Tommy, post up a dyno chart man, sounds like it's a real monster you're out in dishing punishment left and right.

S4 is 3600lbs
Gallardo is 3152lbs

Difference is in the power figures and gearing.

Yes his is blue. There are a bunch of blue S4's on youtube though. His car makes a 11.6 pass on pump gas. A Gallardo makes mid to low 12 second passes. Mind you Tom is not on pump any more, and has significantly more power.

Good lord...I thought corn juice(ethanol) had a lower energy content than gas. Am I missing something here? Either way, any car running 11's on street tires is just plain wicked.

yes ethanol has less energy potential compared to a equal amount of gasoline. so you get less mpg, but ethanol has equivalent octane rating of 110. So he can up the boost without having to worry about detonation.

Its basically cheap race gas, the evo guys do it all the time when they go to the track.

lol...nothing really. Maybe slight increase in power from the higher octane. You need a tune and need to crank up the boost to really take advantage of it.

Your car wouldn't run, you need to get a proper tune for it. Think of it this way, the ideal a/f ratio for gas is 14:7:1, now E85 is a bit different.... the ideal a/f ratio is 9:0:1. So, in essence... your car wouldn't start.

certain c-class models will work with e85 or premium with no problems.
