afaik they are no longer making RS4's, they were 2.7 twin turbo, the RS6 is a 4.2 V8 twin turbo, new S4 is an RS6 engine without the turbos

There is no way thats an M5, it a 540 probably. An M5 is quicker than an RS4, 0-100 in 10.6s compared to 11.2s for the RS4. Not a lot faster but it clearly shows the M5 is an easy match for one, and the gap the RS4 pulls wouldn't happen against an M5.
Still, they were both dicks.

The driving of both cars was highly dangerous and the fact that they filmed it is even more worrying. People like this dont deserve to have such powerfull cars if they cant be responsible with the power.

Post from the apparent owner of the M5 off the VX220 forum....
Hey guys...
Before I begin a story, I would like to thank Beckhammania23 for hosting this Video...
So, I am on my way to work from a BMW dealer, where I picked up my Shaft CAM Sensor...Coming to a Land Rover dealer to see if they've got brochues of a NEW Discovery...I want to buy it for winter...No brochures yet...
Coming out of the dealer and what I see 2 RS4's with 760i behind with government plates...taking left to Moscow Ring road...I've seen those RS4's before and I know they are modded...I jump in the car and in 2 min I catch up with them...Blue RS4 in front, Silver follows him and 760i at the back...
Over take him and the BLUE RS4 spots me, black smoke from exhausts and the chase begins...He follows me but gets lost in a traffic, I wait for him and he catches up and them I follow him and take a video...

Well, the RS4 was MTM tuned...when I spoke to the guy later...he probably does not know about his car anything...
He said " I've got a MTM 600HP" (I not sure if there is an MTM 600HP RS4) ...and a Ceramic Clutch"... I've asked him later what was his times and he said "I dont know" but was told that 0-100km (0-62) in 3.8sec's... That is ONE FAAAST MFKing Avant ...especially if stock RS4 from a start can kill our BEAST's...When the gap increased big time... I was in my 6th gear..So dont think that it was that fast...let him joy....was not not really pushing then I catched up with him and ....
Left the ring road, he went same way, opened my window and spoke to a guy a bit...then 2nd gear launch...he destroyed me ...Then from the lights he...mislaunched or something and punished him...and we went opposite ways...
Stopped to watch a video an WTFK..."Today an RS4 Day or Something" another 3rd Silver RS4 one passes by... ... almost same way I need to go...Followed him but the guy was just driving in one lane, the car was so dirty and when I blowed his door he did't follow me, the taking a turn and Oh my god, again another RS4 went taiking a turn opposite direction...
It was a nice experience...but I dont like Avants...
Und sein Kommentar dazu:
Guy's thanks for your comments...Yes I need to be more carefull
I have to admit...Sometimes when I race someone I have to go like that... Driver's who have FAST cars in Russia 90% of then will give a good race...This was not the most scariest drives I've had...The race with M3 I had before was even more wild... ...I was sweating...
It looks much closer from a camera angle...In real life it was not that close, or well sometimes very close...you have to feel the beast...
What can I do I like to race...I like adrenaline...and I M5 POWER...I am 100% enjoying my car...You have to feel you car and a traffic...Lots depends how crazy you are and on your skills...I am not saying that I can drive...I am sure there better driver then me on this board but I am not Crazy...I just like to go FAAAST...and I like Competition..I lik,e to explore M5 limits...Races like this do not happend often and when they do I'll take my chances...
