    Made some baseline passes in my 2019 RS5...

    Made some passes with just APR 100 tune on Gt260 pump gas, full weight and 2,100ish DA... Car is a little tricky to launch now with the LC and boost off the line, so still figuring it out. Did some launches on the street but still spun 2 of 3 passes and the one pass I hooked I had to let off...

    Made some baseline passes in my 2019 RS5...

    I shut the car off and open the hood... I do this most times unless hot lapping which usually only happens in Nov. when there aren't a lot of folks there. This time of the year the track is very crowded so it's usually 45-60 minutes between runs and that's plenty of time to cool down a decent...

    Very nice! I love my TTRS, MKII so manual obviously not as fast but very fun...

    Sorry, I don't have an RS3 not sure if I misstated something... I have a B8 S4, MKII TTRS, Macan Turbo, and the B9 RS5... oh and a Q5 beater... lol I'm sure the RS3 will do fine in the snow assuming good tires and winter tires work so much better than AS IMO... RS3 is a haladex system and I...

    Thanks! Yeah, it should go low 1.5x with tune not sure how well these tires will do with the limited side walls but we'll find out soon... lol V10 or V10+? How you like it?

    Wow dude! He said AMG's don't hold their value and you spun it like he said the opposite... lol Also, you stated RS7 not S7, I think it's you smoking blunts... lol Little difference between S and RS cars... My 2013 TTRS has held its value pretty well, it's nearly 8 years old and I paid $59K...

    Personally, never have been a fan of MB styling and have loved Audi's since I bought the B5 in 2000, so never even looked at MB. I'll stick with Audi's and Porsche... Wasn't intending on buying the RS5, was more in the market for a used low mileage R8 V10 or V10+, figure with the flu I'd find...

    Yeah, I think they're going to be about the same... the tune will have variable boost launch so looking forward to that... Hoping I can get traction launching under full boost as that should net very low 1.5x 60's... ECU will be back Th. and if it doesn't rain I'll hit the strip Sat. if not...

    Nice! Seems most are going with the black optic/cf trim which mine has but I think misano looks nice with the aluminum trim... color is growing on me, I wouldn't have picked red if I ordered as I think Sonoma looks the best... Track posted a cool shot of my car launching last Wed. Can't...

    Wrong platform... The RS3/TTRS has the 5-pot which has plenty of cars running 9's and some 8's even! The new RS5 is in the high 10's by a couple folks... Hoping to beat that in the next few weeks/months... Nice to see you over here to bud, small world! lol I'll have to play with it today...

    Nice! coupe or SB? I got mine for 23.3% off + $2K loyalty money so it was hard to pass up on. Paid 66 and it snickered for 87. Rides very nice and handles well for what it is, love the new tech and virtual cockpit, system is decent, etc. I'm liking it so far... Just need to make it...

    The car supposedly has LC, keep in mind it's a true auto, IE has a TQ converter... I didn't get the manuals yet as the dealer had the car for 7 months and they had to order me a set... lol Anyway, it won't build boost and it acts weird if you hold it at an rpm, so based on my limited street...

    Made some baseline passes in my 2019 RS5...

    Correct... The TTRS and RS3 have the I-5, I have a TTRS also... It's a 2.9L TT v6 car... With tune alone on E85 or race it'll see 100+ peak HP / 120+ peak tq bump... I'd love to see 10.99 in great DA with tune alone not sure it'll happen... Don't think this motor has the potential of the...

    Took my 2019 RS5 coupe to the dragstrip to get some baseline passes today before I start modding it... 100% stock, 548 miles on it, 1/4 tank of 93... DA was 2,423 per dragtimes, my weather station showed slightly higher... DA Calculator - Density Altitude Calculator Thompson Drag Raceway -...
