You could spank him till he's raw.
Take in to account though that if you do ever have a little battle on track, A good driver in an S3 could probably keep up / be faster than an average
driver in the MK.

Have you taken you mate out in yours? I suggest you do and give it some, I reckon he'd then go quiet

Book a trackday and find out .
A guy at work has a blade mk and i reckon i could cycle round Brands quicker than he could drive round.
Depends who's behind the wheel.

do the maths
128 to 450
256 to 900
384 to 1350
435 to 1530
So unless he has more than that (not the case), then you win.
also
450/128= 3.51 so you should have roughly 4sec to 4.5sec for 0-60
1530/210=7.2 so about 7.5-8sec

The S3 is about 15s down the Quarter-Mile run.
I've seen boggo MK's doing it a couple of seconds quicker.
I would also imagine that 0-60 would be faster in your car too, but no idea by how much... problem is a lot of folk just guess (hope) what their car
might do and state it as fact.
As for track... depends on the circuit!

I reckon that you are looking at about 13s for the standing 1/4 for the indy blade. I think he would a be a good second or two behind you.
He would be about one or two seconds behind you to 60 too.
on the track is a bit more tricky - as said a really good driver in the S3 could give an averagely driven indy a good run for his money.
"That thing you're thinking - it wont be that."

I disagree... he has 4WD, so I suspect he would beat you over the first 10 metres!

Simple answer is dont spin the wheels..................
Here's a quote from a S3 road test.......
"Performance is blistering - 0-62mph takes 5.7 seconds" hardly blistering in BEC circles is it ?

You ever seen a BEC 7 moving off the line on a quarter-mile strip Jon... it may only take 12 or so seconds for some of them to do do it, but 10
seconds of that time is spent stationary doing a mega wheel-spin!

Fair enough, personally I prefer to not spin the wheels though, its not conducive to forwards motion.....
