theres a guy in my class with an audi s4. awd bi-turbo if you dont know. everyone always makes fun of tiburons because i have two of them so i then told the kid with the s4 that i will beat him this spring at the track. just want to see how possible that really is. he has an exhaust and supposedly bigger stock turbos from overseas. the basics of my setup are in my sig. would i have any chance? and by track i really do mean the track. he street races im sure and i wont do it. so who think i can surprise him and maybe take him? im not sure what those things run stock at all

Stock they run low 14s,, mid 14s. So you would stand a chance. Now, if he's modded, you'll have a harder time. Good luck!

I hope you smack the wanker, lol.

Even if you ran close, it should shut old mates mouth a bit.
