03 M3 vs 05 S4 - 3 drag strip runs full video
Last night, my buddy in his 2003 M3 vs. my 2005 S4, had to settle an old age dispute, once and for all. Both cars stock, no mods. 1/8 mile drag strip, 3 runs, best of 3 wins. Small wager, just to spice it up. No bragging allowed, just hard core evidence:

that was pretty slick. the diff btw the 2 in 0-60 is like 0- .2 sec diff i believe in favor of the M3 (if the M3 is has a SMG tranny), this race had a lot to do with driver skill

It is a local 1/8 mile drag strip in San Diego, at the Qualcomm stadium... Qualcomm
It is not a "true" drag strip by any means, but still a safe and controlled place to race and have some fun + you get a time slip.
For those who care about ET, here is my best run data:
60' = 2.219 sec.
330' = 6.079 sec.
1/8 mile = 9.161 sec @ 82.65 mph
0-60 mph = 5.547 sec.
OK, so I didn't brake any records (after all this is a stock S4 with no mods whatsover with only 3,000 miles),
but I spanked that M3 and saved Audi's honor. But yes, he is a shitty driver...

Its all becuase of the launch, that m3 would have reeled him in on a roll.

M3: 262 lbft @ 4900 rpm; 333 HP @ 7900 rpm
S4: 302 lbft @ 3500 rpm 344 HP @ 7000 rpm
I embarassed two M3s on the freeway already from approx. 65 mph to 130 mph +.
Yes, I used to be a rally racer back in the days, but still. M3 needs to be kept above 6,000 rpm all the
time (which is hard for inexpereinced drivers).
