Default A4 and Blue Jetta...~130mph...Irvine...Southbound highway 5
Just wondering if the driver frequents these boards. His A4 didn't have the engine displacement badge. He did have an aftermarket exhaust but other than that I don't know. I am curious because I have some of the standard mods on my 2001 Jetta 1.8T and wanted to know what he had in comparison.

We were cruising at ~80mph and he was a couple car lengths behind me. He went WOT and as he drove by me, I went WOT. Well by the time we hit ~120-130mph I had come up from 2-3 car lengths behind and was just about to pass him but I had to brake due to traffic.

There are old drivers, and there are bold drivers, but there are no old, bold drivers.

Default Audi drivers are more intelligent.
Not speaking for you, of course
