  • ( www.TFLcar.com ) What's the fastest Audi A6 Quattro? Is it the 2000 twin turbo charged A6, or perhaps the next generation 2005 normally aspirated A6, or is it the brand new and supercharged 2012 A6 Quattro? Just for fun we decided to find out by drag racing the last three generations of the Audi A6 Quattro in our TFLcar Nose to Tush Drag Race.

    This is a horrible style for racing. How are you supposed to expect the car in the back to stand a chance of catching the front car, especially since it starts after the first is gone..

      Nate White ; You are 100% correct. The front car puts the hammer down drop on the rear car and is spooling up and gone before the rear car can begin it’s journey. A solid 1/2 second advantage for the car in the rear

    @FrancineRA1970 Thanks for your kind words and smart comments. We like the idea of a timed run (and we of course love and enjoy traditional drag races) however sometimes because of time or budget that's just not possible. We had access to the two older cars only for a few hours over lunch (they are daily drivers) and so it was impossible stage a traditional and legal drag race.

    Lol, one of the main points of phasing out the 2.7 biturbo for the NA 3.1L was that the new one would make more power without the turbos. Pointless races.

  • @Trades46
    @Trades46 12 лет назад +1

    The racing idea is great; The mountain racing scene (Touge racing) in Japan uses a similar style as roads are too narrow for side by side starts. But on a public road, you're going to need to push the cars harder to exploit their true potential.
    I personally like the looks of the 05 with the facelift in 08. The new one feels the styling studio was conflicted to use more angular lines vs curvy lines. I'm also not a fan of the 'cut-off' headlamps, though the LED integrations is Audi's finest.
