Default The beauty of quattro...

I was driving today when I came across an A4 guy who felt in necessary to impress me. I followed him down a street to find an elderly member of the community moving at a not-so-brisk 20mph. He proceeded to pass and hit nearly 60mph and decided to make a left turn while still speeding. He understeered heavily and did not know how to control his car and went straight into a cluster of eureka palms (the skinny palm trees that grow in clusters). They acted as a ramp and he drove straight up them once they bent. Needless to say I got going faster than him, knew when to slow down, and did not end up in the same situation because of quattro. Thoroughly funny situation, and we had to pull him out with a SUV (yet another story when the cop came). He was completly stranded because his front wheels were off the ground, and all I could do was laugh.

Default Quattro kicks ***. I gotta watch my self when I get into high power RWD cars.....

I spun an M3 the other day. Got on the gas to fast outta a corner and I was facing the other way.
With the S4 I am used to putting my foot on the floor right out of the turn, can't do that in RWD cars.
