How close should the race between a 225 TT and an S4 be in car lengths from a dig to 100 both MT 56 degree weather drivers equal. Want to know because it was alot closer than i think it should have been (half a car) and so i think i may be loosing power.

If this post aggrivates you for whatever reason i am sorry, i am just trying to see if my car is healthy

Thank you

Default A stock S4 should beat a 225TT from a dig to 100 by much more than a 1/2 car.

If I beat a 225TT by only a half a car to 100 (when I was stock) it would have difinitely ruined my evening.

Default did he get a better launch? There is such thing as equal drivers? In my opinion, a slight difference

between drivers will greatly affect a race. This comes from lots of street racing experience, both racing and just watching others. The best way is to do more than one run. That the only way to get a good read in my opinion

I think a TT weighs about 300lbs less than an S4. Get another big dude in the TT and try again.
