Walking: Hobag, Bruno, Silva? Seat of the pants unofficial comparison.
You guys (and some others) know the where & the when; however brief.
I know it's hard to compare since we all let off at about 120km/h, which is, admittedly, against the law, but generally acceptable.
I was at 98% WOT. (I find that if I let off just a hair, my acceleration improves. I read something in the RS4 B7 forum about this...any input...thanks).
Assumptions: Everyone else was at WOT (or thereabouts)
My observations:
- Bruno was slowly walking away, but not huge.
- I was neither walking away from Silva nor was he catching me.
- Hobag: your clean engine was blinding me ;-) (you were behind Silva, so I can't compare).
Soooo,
Bruno, Silva. Were you 2 holding off...making me feel good? Where was Hobag in all of this?
If everyone was doing their duty, then it's amazing how similar these differently Staged 1, 2 & 2+ (& 2++?) cars moved.

I might have hit WOT for a couple instances, but most of it was just...
about 3/4. I just tried to keep up with Silva, but then traffic got in the way and Silva got caught in it. I remember playing with your car for a bit, and then you kinda faded away (not of my doing of course). At which point, I was trying to keep as close to Bruno as much as I could. He's fast...
It was fun, but too bad there was so much traffic.

I don't remember exactly where this was...
The only time I went WOT was when we were on the 404 on ramp, southbound. The 75% throttle discussion is quite old, but, I haven't personally noticed any difference with the stage 3 APR software. When I go WOT, I just mash the pedal to the floor.

I thought it was you. I led onto the 404, followed by Bruno, Hobag, and then who
I thought was you.
If you're stage 3, then forget about it...if you were behind me it was only b/c you were being nice. I was just trying to gauge differences in set-up's from Stage 1 onwards.
