Audi RS3 - Stage 2 VS Modded Hellcat & Modded ZL1 1LE DRAG RACES!!!

[@randyarceo7796]

I’ve seen racers out in Sonoma Raceway put blue masking tape on their lower portion panels to protect the paint from tire burnouts

Thank you very much!

Them races is why i wann get a rs3 or a ttrs

[@dylanw890]

Yeah man these things are little pocket rockets, I've seen S3's smoke Infiniti's and Mercedes AMG 43 cars becuase of its all wheel drive and insane launch control.

One of my favorite videos of yours..Fun to watch on every level...You even had time to chit chat with the camera DURING your 1/4 mile run in the A4😂😂 .. made me LOL 👍

[@VancityAudi]

Lmao, thanks. This has been one of my favourite videos I've made too. Racing Cody's A4 was so badass. I lost so horrendously bad I wish I had an outside view for you guys to see

[@mousiee7]

Loved the Wagon action!

[@MooseModePXL]

Love the RPF1. People use to crack on my S4 because it wasn’t “stanced” with my 17x9 RPF1s .. until they caught that smoke from the twin 28rs. 😂

Thanks! I love the way they turned out too

AWD and weight makes a massive difference. Don't you think So? Great race! QUATTRO is king

[@VancityAudi]

Thank you

[@Ninety7Till]

Hell yeah good shit man 🔥

[@barryswrx]

What caused the 2 to 3 shift issue? Mine did it recently, maybe 1st to 2nd,can't remember

[@VancityAudi]

Maybe it just allowed the RPM's to get too high? Fuel slosh caused a drop in rail pressure? This video was shot 3 years ago, so I can't remember if we found out why. I was running shi$$y Custom Code software back then though so impossible to say.

[@robb4879]

Your RS3 is fast! I will leave it at that. I’d pay some money to witness this race with a little snow on the ground to spice things up. ;)

[@VancityAudi]

LOL, I'll take this race again just with my newest setup: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y53JiqJtfLR_qNk

[@robb4879]

Your car is so ridiculous! I’d take it over the other flashy car for sure and the sleeper is always the best pick. I recently sold a 996TT (manual) after 13 yrs of ownership. A Charger Hellcat pulled up beside me in it a few months back. Man did ever make me realize where things are at these days in about 2-3 seconds. I recently sold it not just because of this jaw dropping experience. It was time for a change. I just purchased a ‘18 S5 with pretty low miles. I needed something that is good all year round. The AMG’s are scary in the snow. I might consider a tune for the S5. I don’t need anything crazy, please let me know if you have any recommendations. Thanks!

[@VancityAudi]

@@robb4879 I would patiently wait for Unitronic to release software for your car. They may take longer to get to market but you'll get a more refined tune which will drive extremely smooth and offer you additional power. Just keep checking back here in the future: www.getunitronic.com/ecu-tuning/audi-s5-3.0tfsi-2018-2019

[@robb4879]

Ok, I will do. I’m in no rush. Thanks for providing this info!

[@nicksequino5081]

Anyway to do the opposite of what you did for the burnout, and make it close to 100% rear wheel drive? Might help with the understeery nature of the car in corners.

[@VancityAudi]

Sadly no. The AWD system in these cars is FWD biased meaning that power always goes to the front tires and then to the rear tires. It is physically impossible to turn it to 100% RWD.

[@felixcretu4993]

Holly shit? Where did your interior go? Damnnn that’s pretty cool. How many pounds did you save?

[@VancityAudi]

My interior is in my basement, lol. I think between the trunk, rear seats, passenger seat and racing seats I saved around 300lbs.

[@felixcretu4993]

Vancity Audi now that's pretty epic!

[@donisa9726]

Can you tell me why after you lounch the car you puled gear stick into manual mod?

[@VancityAudi]

I have been able to run quicker times when going through the gears manually. When I go out next I'll try leaving it in S and letting the car do it on it's own again.

[@pdxthriftking5033]

I'm going to do a nice straight burnout. @18:11 oops I forgot.

[@VancityAudi]

Lol. If I don't cut the wheel during a burnout I only get power to one of the front tires. By turning the wheel it helps direct power left and right so they both spin during my burnout.

[@Freddycroutons]

Hey Nice runs brother Quick question regarding tires- does anybody have experience with running a little bigger tire and still being safe regarding the wheel well? If so what size. I’m blowing tires every six weeks Ty all

[@VancityAudi]

Are you referring to the size okay to run on an RS3?

[@Freddycroutons]

Vancity Audi yes, stock staggered, I’m blowing tires- streetable, seldom sees a track, What size can I fit under the wheel well? Any idea

[@VancityAudi]

@@Freddycroutons yes sir. 26 inch tall tires are the tallest you should run when racing.

[@danbaltizar6346]

Wait!!!!? I thought the RS3 was awd?... burn out :/??? Stripped interior, ouch. How much was the stg 2? $4-5k? Or $6-7k? How much bigger is the turbo vs stock?

[@VancityAudi]

It is AWD, but I basically remove the fuse that controls the Haldex system to do a burnout and warm up the front tires before I launch. I'm still running a stock turbo. Stage 2 is just bolt on's. The turbo is untouched. Stage 2 parts retail for $4199 from Iroz Motorsport.

[@StreetAllianceCarMeets]

@@VancityAudi 4199 dam ouch .

[@VancityAudi]

@@StreetAllianceCarMeets there are other companies out there with cheaper parts but I went with what I consider to be the best. I imagine you can get an intercooler, downpipe and midpipes for closer to $3000 with a different company.

[@razerone49]

I’m sure you can make some golf r mud flaps work if there aren’t any for the 8v platform. Just for the track so who cares if they don’t look stock

[@VancityAudi]

Haha, that would be hilarious!

[@lateralbeats]

Really cool 😎

[@bladeddavid1144]

What app does he used to measure his time?

[@VancityAudi]

It is called Dragy

[@SRTst]

Whats your fan setup for cooling down between runs?

[@VancityAudi]

For now I just have a single fan blowing down the back of the engine bay to cool the turbo.

[@SRTst]

Vancity Audi I meant more details on the fan you’re using and what kind of power supply you’re using to power the fan. I was thinking about getting a portable generator and fan to have for track days.

[@VancityAudi]

@@SRTst Oh, my bad. I just bought a 900CFM carpet fan to cool my turbo. I ordered it off of Amazon. The power supply I use is a battery powered unit that has an air compressor, lights, ac/dc power and so on. Sad thing is the batteries don't have enough juice for the whole race day. I'd recommend a gas powered generator if you have the ability to use one.

[@Kiss__Kiss]

It was a Hellcat you Putts!!! lol

[@danieldoyley7434]

What's the cars weight with you in it?

[@VancityAudi]

Around 3525lbs. I'm going to try and include a clip of the car on the scale on my next race video.

[@KEENBODY]

Do you ever do any street pulls?

[@VancityAudi]

Sadly no. Where I live, if you're going 40km/h(25mph) or faster over the speed limit they impound your vehicle and issue you massive fines. I'd rather just play it safe on the track.

[@MM-su4gu]

Vancity Audi you should move to Houston. Street races happen on a daily basis over there lol

What's up man congrats on the 1/4 time again! Just keeps getting better, getting me excited for my setup not too long till its complete. Brilliant video, I reckon a demon factory would have been a very interesting race. You seen the syvecs ECU? Expensive piece of kit but looks serious! Excited to see how that diff changes the car too!

[@VancityAudi]

Thank you very much! I'll see if I can line up a race against an actual Demon next time haha. Syvecs looks so sick but in my opinion only really worth it if I upgrade my turbo. I'll start saving for the diff but I'm not sure I'll be able to get it in this racing season. Might have to wait till next year.

[@TC-db5fm]

@@VancityAudi that's exactly what I though of going big turbo this year. Just focusing on drag setup and maximum stock turbo output. May as well before the car is taken to the next level. I think if a lot of money is spent on a big turbo setup including supporting mods and build the syvecs is the icing on the cake so definitely a future plan!

[@VancityAudi]

@@TC-db5fm hell ya. Syvecs is badass for sure. If I have the extra money I would totally go Svyecs. CC has some epic tunes for hybrids and big turbo's already though so depending on where the development is next year we'll see what route I go with.

[@danbaltizar6346]

And that was no ZL1, LoL. 12.5@112 is about what a stock SS runs, but closer to 113-114 mph. A stock ZZl should do 121-123 mph.
