I did'nt give it much thought last night when a bright yellow Audi gave the Tahoe a go from a red light.He actually caught me a little off guard when I heard him revving the motor for a hard launch I punched the gas and caught him and managed to put about 2 truck lengths on him and keep him there until I lifted at about 110mph.Then I run into the guy tonight wanting to know what's been done to my Truck,then he explains to me that his little Yellow Audi is suppsed to be a 420hp Tuetonic terror.I tried to act impressed but he did'nt want a repeat performance with a small wager.Enough said.

 

Nice kill, he's re-thinking his purchase now!!
Its always funner in a truck...............

 

NIce kill but, haven't you heard?Tahoes and othe full size SUV's are slow....

Damn man, those things are not only fast but deathly quick off the line! I dint know you could get the RS4 here. The S4 is pretty sick even! I know those things are all wheel drive, but was Im not sure what motors are in the new ones, the older ones were turbos.
Thats Bad ***! He probably had a hard time sleeping that night!

 

Those are supposed to run 0-60mph times of 4.8 seconds and reach 155mph top speed. They're heavy too, making it surprising they run well at all. Power comes via a 420hp 3xxtq rated N/A V8 with a 6spd manual. These cars must be fairly rare too, because I think the 1st model yr available in America is the 2007 model.

Good kill if he was really trying hard. I suspect those cars can run easily in the low 13's and maybe high 12's. Surely that will depend on the driver, but it moves well for a 4,000 plus lb tank of an automobile.

Keith Craft is known for strong Ford engines, and given it weighs so much, your Tahoe with a Radix must make serious power and torque. Donno if top speed is something to try, but who needs that mph in a "truck" anyway. The guy who could've bought a new ZO6 for about what he spent for his Audi is probably thinking the ZO6 would've been a better choice for drag racing by now.
