It's Martinsville!
News updates from the past race: Denny Hamlin out at least 5 more weeks; Mark Martin will be driving for him.
ROTFLMAO!!!!!
We will have to start baiting him.
Well, it seems that the Audi S8 uses different cams and has a dual air plenum that won’t fit the S6. The engine has a 4-cam engine with 4 valves per cylinder for S6 and S8 models. There is a chip upgrade for the S6 which adds 50hp which would bring it up to 470. Don’t know if I will do the chip since Car and Driver tested the base car at 0-60 in 3.7 sec and 1/4 mile at 12.2 sec at 115mph.
The old version of S6 used the Audi V10 engine which is used in the Lamborghini Gaillardo and Audi R8-V10. The V10 makes more hp, but the twin turbo V8 has a much wider torque curve and is faster. The V8 twin turbo is also used in the Bentley Continental.
The Baraqqi Depression grinds on. Unfortunately the prospering beltway folks likely aren't race fans....
No, Nitrous to me has always been a sploded motor waiting to happen
