Dude, Marcs S4 is no joke. The thing weighs nothing. Like 2500lbs i think. Well the blue one at least.

S4's either upgrade to K04's off a RS4, RS6 turbo's, or the big boys run GT25 or GT28's.

That person that spoke with you that I know didnt ask you for you phone #,he liked your car&struck up a casual convo.I don't have the energy to start a pissing match about this all over again.
Your car will beat my $90,000 E63;as it should.If thats what you wanted to hear to stroke your ego then I'll say it again: MARCS GUTTED AUDI S4 THAT WEIGHS 2900LBS W STOCK TURBOS WILL BEAT OLDGIXXERS 4000lb E63 ANY DAY OF THE WEEK.My car is a daily driver&has yet to be down the 1/4 mi whereas your car is quite obviously better suited for that.No brainer..

Since you posted it,I will PM you when I get back from vaca to set up a run.A bunch of us on this board go to O.B.I out on the Island,you can join us&we can run then.There are 600's,750's,1000's,Harley's,John Deere tractors,Huffy bicycles etc that you can pick from to race.

I love street racing&love to get it on with other people like yourself who share a similiar passion.Unfortunately my car is bone stock and will remain that way for some time so it wont be much of a challenge for your 8,9 or 10 sec stock turbo Audi or whatever it is.
You can run my 63,we can even video you killing it & post it for the world to see.All I ask is that you race one of my personal bikes in return&video that as well to see that 90% of the highly modified car's have no chance against a similliarly track-prepped bike with an able rider.

Have fun at Edgewater everyone,I'm tired&need to go to bed.
Marc I will PM you when I get back after Labor day

Can I get in on the action? The sunday after Labor Day at the usual location. Marc, is your car still stock? I assume you have done sime minor upgrades. Either way, that thing looks like a beast.

Yep. Is there a more perfect car to gut? It's different, AWD, and EXTREMELY cheap. They can be bought at Manheim for $6K to $7K these days. You can gut it out, sell all the parts, and be left with a RUNNING S4 for ZERO dollars. It's a no brainer. My car has practically become disposable. I could part it out tomorrow and actually make money.

I think you guys should do a an ET race at a drag strip on the bike and in the 63!

ET racing is fun and it really comes down as do most to who gets the best RT and 60ft. That S4 would need some real nice shifting to reel in the 63. I broke my gas pedal in a similar race vs a highly modded S4 in terrible conditions. Car was likely as fast as yours as it ran a 11.9@120 in a 5400 ft DA!! One race he missed 1st which would be similar to a "head start" LOL. He lost but once the S4 gets moving BUH BYE. The bike , well jeez....seems like thats where the S4 driver would be at a HUGE disadvantage
My clutch is fine. I'm running a stock/ceramic hybrid disc with an OEM RS4 pressure plate. I just made a couple shakedown passes last week and ran 10.76@131.6. DA was around 3000-3500ft.

Yeah, some bikes are pretty fast. He originally said he had a bone stock Gixxer 1000 that he'd run my S4 with. In the 1/4 mile, I think I'd have a chance with that.

hello everyone, my name is anthony, i am a friend of oldgixxer's.

i am the one with the 06 gixxer 1000 that will race marc and his s4 in whatever type of race he wants. dead stop drag? cool. roll-on? sure, no problem. twisty roads? now we're talking!

the bike is close to stock, the only mods to the bike being stainless steel braided brake lines, bridgestone bt-002 dot race tires, and a puig windscreen. in terms of hp and acceleration, the bike is completely stock, even down to the factory exhaust system.

so pm me and let me know when and where, or post it up, either way.

That was an awesome meet. Far better than the ones we have here in Westchester county.

It was a pleasure meeting some of the board members.

EvilllEmpirE, enzom, and AMGRider, it was a pleasure to check out your cars and talk with you guys. You're all very knowledgable and just cool people overall. The cars were awesome. You're buddies were cool dudes too and they had some pretty hot cars as well. Did any races go down after I left or you guys just bounced?

Enzom, I didn't realize who you were at first until Joon goes, "you know enzom, the guy with the fastest stock E55." Awesome car man.

EvilllEmpirE is a real class act. It was great talking cars with you, very cool .

Joon, you're the man and your E55 is a true beast. When I got home I was still smiling from that monstrous torque. Thanks a lot for the ride, can't wait to see how it performs on the highway

I might be in Atlantic City next Thurs but if I'm not I will definitely catch you guys at the meet. Hope everyone got home safely. Peace.

Stallion - It was very nice to meet you. I live so close to there that it made sense for me to see what all the talk is about. I can tell you that hanging around so many kids in their cars makes me feel pretty old. I was falling asleep against my car.

BTW - I am not the fastest stock E55. Housclass has me beat by 0.01. Give him his due. Thanks anyway.

Very fast S4 you got, congrats.
You need to come out to the rental at MIR in Oct, Blackbenz is organizing the event.

I invited Marc out to MIR a few times and he doesnt seem interested. He is still more than welcome to join There shoul dbe a few other stage 3 S4's there but none of them stripped. My friend with a modded B5 RS4 will probably come too

You should at least remove the subwoofers and spare tire. If you gut your car like Marc did then it won't be a Mercedes anymore. I'm more impressed with a fast luxury sedan than a quick-as-lightning racecar.

I was hoping to see your car at the meet last night but I heard its in the shop

You and Joon definitely have to have a re-match, his car is brutal.

I happened to be driving by so I pulled into the parking lot. Last night was the craziest night i've ever seen there. Fast N Furious scene in reality!

but I didn't see any MB group though... I was in my gray M3, drove up and down the rows to stare at the car groups.

im trying although its just a number, something in my belly tells me I wont make it though....ill take a 130+ trap speed over a 10.99 any day, at this point the 10.99 is more achievable but it will be tough.

Are you going next thursday.. Hopefully I will be there..

We were all the way at the end, there were MB's, Audis, Porsches, and plenty of Bimmers. Yeah, it was pretty sick dude. I can't wait to go back.

There is an Evosport E55 in New York? How does it run? What stage is it? PM me if you don't want to blast it out on the forum.
