Take your RS4 to a track? Only a fistfull of M owners ever take their M's to the track at all. Here's what you do if you ever want to track an RS4 or any other car for that mattter; Schedule a euro delivery of your car and reserve a day and time at ther Nurbrigring sometime after w/ a licensed professional instructor. Then, once you've done about 43 laps of practice on the ring, get 1 good lap in on your own. You'll be there for sometime, say a few months, have spent a ton of money on "ring" lessons, but by the time you've got that one good lap in, I assure you that by the time it's all said and done, both you and your RS4 will feel very accomplished.  |
Nah buddy!

Thats not my point. Of course you dont go that fast in your car. But it tells you something about how fast the car accelerates at free way and auto bahn speeds. For example if the car only has potental to go 175 the accelertion curve is going to be lower than a car that goes 200. Which means the time it would take you to go from 80 to 130 in an RS4 would be quite a bit longer compared to an M5's time (which has a 200 mph potential).
