You really do know your stuff. Yes the APR tuned Audi RS7s get off the line much faster and post far lower quarter mile ETs (my friend's does 10.3s) than the E63 S. My Porsche 991 Turbo S also has the variable torque vectoring and when using launch control allows exactly the amount of wheel spin at launch without cutting power that makes the car take off and launch the fastest. AMG just has not designed a great launch control/race start for our cars. This issue does not matter in a roll race from 60 mph where my Renntech tuned E63 S has beaten APR tuned RS7s.
With the gargantuan amount of power and torque that your car has the launch must be a real challenge. Once underway the car is blinding fast.
I'd like to hear more details about your races against tunes RS7s!

They were as per above--raced an APR tuned RS7 at Slipstream's roll races at Pocono Raceway and won. I will have tons of runs at Atco against APR tuned RS7s. Given their superior launch control they will beat my E63 S. N

Sorry, just looking for more details. I know we have no chance from a dig but what I didn't know was that we can pull them up top. Roll was 60 to what? Did you have the advantage instantly? How many car lengths were you ahead at the end? Were you still pulling at the end? In the 1/4mile were you gaining at the finish? If so, how long until you caught up? That kind of info...

Roll race was about 1600 feet from about 60. At the end I trapped about 142-143. I was ahead the entire race. Margin of victory was at least one car length. I didn't see who was pulling on who at the end because I Was ahead by more than a car length. I tried to race the RS7 again but the driver was instructed to race an M5.
The RS7 driver said he blew a shift at the beginning. perhaps but I did not see him pulling on me at any point in the race
Have not drag raced an RS7 from a dig. But I know the result before it Happens -- RS7 will win. My friend's APR tuned RS7 does the quarter in 10.3 due to in part it's far superior launch control. A Renntech or AMS tuned E63 S on stock turbos will do it in 10.85--11. LC sucks in the car as it, at least from my own experience does not allow wheel spin

That looks awesome, but is it street legal? It'll be one scary E63 to drive.
