slightly off topic. Audi Quattro

Just seen this, thought it may be of interest for bar room bragging rites!

Look half way down at the 0-100kmh time.

That shows the advantage of 4x4 grip.
The Quattro quoted there has the same power as my car, and my best 0-60 was 3.3secs. I am sure i could improve it, but there is no way i will get sub 3 seconds!

Thats awsome... is that the distance too 41.9metres ?
I had a Dax Rush with a mild tuned 4.6ltr V8 300hp, 0-60mph was early 3secs (difficult to time while diving) but from zero in 5gear it clocked 10.8secs
There's nothing like acceleration!!

Think the PDK was the forerunner of the semi auto box or at least, an early version of these double clutch systems. Sure it was said at the time not to have your foot under the clutch pedal as the system activated or your foot would be badly crushed.
