Default Monte Carlo LS vs 2014 Audi A5

So I was on my way to get some chipotle with my girlfriend and there was this nice Audi A5 model ....2014 ish model...so I wanted to test my cars ability and I was just curious.

So we've come to a nice long 2 lane road on each side. A road I've taken alot to work and back so I know the road pretty well and what is around the road.

So, after we've crossed the railroad tracks, we got up to 55mph, a sweet spot for my car. So I got on it and when he got to the back end of my driver side door, he got on it. So we both kept up with each other but I was pulling on him.

Unfortunately, we were going up a hill, and due to it being wet outside still from the rain and there being a light after the hill hits its peak and turns into a down hill, I let off.

So it was a nice win for me

Him and I both had our significant other in the car, so I would absolutely love a rematch when its just me and him.

"It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile, winning is winning."

So, thats my most recent win that I'm very happy for. Just goes to show you that unexpected wins are out there and your car and can still surprise you lol

Thanks for reading everyone

You and an Audi A5 and you won, sorry that's some major BS bro, I can't even beat a 1.8 Jetta with an 03 6spd accord and that accord rapes my MC day and night.
Also I couldn't beat an Audi A4 2.0T with a 01 GTP and that same GTP eats my car alive.

If any stock Honda beat my monte I would be ashamed.

a5 had to be a bad driver. Those have pretty good engines, unless your monte is modded? I had this old civic try to race me david, lol, blew past at the line, i was crusing on his *** lol.

How poorly could a 2 year old car run which is probably still under warranty. A5 is a new Audi model hence its still technically a new car

Even with a bad driver if that driver knows how to get the car rolling he 'll know how to beat a slug. A modded LS highly unlikely, a modded SS/SC is possible but those audi's have amazing torque and they haul ***
