gotta hand it to the German cars
 
one thing some of you guys might not be aware of, is how amazing german cars do at extremly high speeds .

My Renault ( french car , for the ones that never left ontario eh ) has 225 hp / 330 tq and 6 speeds. If i were to race a regular A4 , or a 530 BMW from a stop light , I would rape them so bad they'd wish they didn't get their drivers license .

However, I was cruising on the A2 Autobahn the other day , going the polite german speed of 210 kmph on cruise control ... more than once, I was in the sittuation, beeing on the far left lane, where Audis and BMW's , came up from behind and sort of wanted me to move over so that they may go faster :)

Of course , I would joke with them , change the lane so they have the space , and then speed up to smoke them . However racing these apparently slow cars from a speed such as 210, even with the power that my car puts out, has proven more difficult. I only got smoked once, normally I'd pull on them but very very slowly, compared to what I am used to at slower speeds.

The time I got smoked ... was by an A6 . I was actually pulling on him , but my car decided to stop accelerating at just over 250 while the ****er kept on going :) To make matters worse it was a station wagon, in fact, most of these cars you see blasting 250 on the autobahn are station wagons ... funny ****ing sight for a guy who's been in jail , err canada for 13 years .

Anyways . Before anybody here bashes european imports , I'd suggest taking a woodstang to the autobahn in europe and see how long before you get out and give it a friendly kick to dent the plastic cheap ass fender .


hahaha , speaking of kicking cars . Some ****er almost t-boned me in romania with an A6 , I got out of the car , and give his A6 a couple of friendly kicks in the doors . Man , my foot hurt the entire day , and the car did not get a single dent :smokin:

quality over quantity ... something that most americans can never understand

Sorry to burst your bubble but a regular A4 has only 200HP/207TQ(At least the new ones), and it weights almost 4000lbs. Thats like me saying "I raced a stock 1981 civic and walked all over him"

Now Im not saying anything bad about German cars, me being a German car owner, Im just saying the cars you raced are not that impressive :)

Although your car puts out alot of TQ which you should be happy about.

BTW: Go race a RS4 Station Wagon and tell us how you do :)

bud the whole point of my post , was to praise german cars and say that even those cars at high speeds perform better than mine
