i was racing my friends cl500 and i dumped it at like 3.8k rpms. car launched and hooked up but all of a sudden power died for maybe .2 seconds. does my car have esp? did i freak sumthing up? i know its vague but i was sh!tting my pants because i thought maybe i blew my tranny......

And I don't even have ESP! I'm 99% sure it's the EDL - Electronic Differential Lock. Do a search and you should be able to find posts pertaining how to rig up your own kill switch. I know Blitz put a nice kill switch in my S4 when Andy owned the car. =)

And IIRC the 2000 MY A6 did not have ESP.

Could likely be EDL too as mentioned below.

even dumped it at 5k before with no problems. i will do a search however.....might be that i will need to be calling josh soon for a new clutch

If you are going to upgrade, skip teh RS4 OEM and go straight to Spec stage 2! It can take those higher RPM launches with ease.

same here, could be different traction on rear wheels, so other one spins and edl cuts power

must be the surface because i dont think my stock setup has enough power to spin....or does it~

I can tell you that the RS4 clutch in my S4 has endured a ton of abuse without any let downs! We're talking a good 300+ launches on it! Amazing for a clutch that goes for $400 brand new shipped!

Here are some videos of my S4 at the track utilizing the stock RS4 clutch. Enjoy.<ul><li><a href="http://69.57.130.234/rf_videos/drag_racing/Audi116.WMV">http://69.57.130.234/rf_videos/drag_racing/Audi116.WMV</a</li></ul>
