  1. I'm gunning for you this year buddy, just wait! :fuckyeah:
  2. I work about 5-10 minutes from MAG so I'm always over there.
  3. Yeah new building is going to be AWESOME.
  4. WTF, Are you guys playing musical Salesmen? Mike already moved over to Byers from MAG, and now you are going over there?
  5. S-Tronic = DSG = Dual Clutch Gearbox. = Really awesome 4ms up shifts that let a bark out the exhaust. I'm a die hard 6mt fan, you know this, but they are unbeatable. Think GT-R / Veyron ect. Not a real "automatic" per say with a torque converter.
  6. I couldn't live with only DSG vehicles, I'd have to have at least 1 6MT around at all times. That being said, I'm looking forward to the new 2014 R8 w/ S-Tronic finally. V10 & S-Tronic could really be interesting...
  7. Yup, my B8 S4 had DSG, and I wouldn't take a 6MT in that car honestly.
  8. Ever drive really easy on cruise for a long trip, it's amazing how much mileage we throw away having fun. A4 goes from a full tank DIS indicator of 300-350 to 475-500.
  9. DJ, you should go drive it. DSG is pretty brilliant.
  10. Sounds like he is doing 45mph everywhere...
  11. Yup. Way blown out of proportion. VW/Audi only called for 10k Dino oil changes. Even 5k would have been fine. As usual people being lazy ftl.
  12. Canon sx50. Try one, you'll buy it.
  13. Yup. Merge at 80 or get run over. First time of took the gf through ct & ma she about had a heart attack.
  14. Yeah but at least you can cruise in the pack of people doing 80-90 and not get pillaged. They are a bit more reasonable there in that respect.
  15. I will say, I've been let off 99% of the time I've been pulled over. That, and at least, we don't have to worry about plain closed cars, not looking over your should at every taurus or mustang...
  16. Thanks for posting the first completely unnecessary paragraph then.
  17. Nothing wrong with RE-11's at all, they are actually a pretty aggressive tire you could autox and do some light track duty with. If their bit of road noise doesn't bother you (I could care less) then go for it. A good competitor in that area is also the Yoko AD08. Seeing as you are probably running 18's you could probably get in on the new hotness this year: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Dunlop&tireModel=Direzza+ZII Or the new BFG Rivals: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=BFGoodrich&tireModel=g-Force+Rival&partnum=05WR5GFR The RE11, AD08, ZII, And Rival are all more aggressive tires geared towards Autox and more serious duty. Wont last as long as say the PSS's with their 300 TW rating. Depends if you want more longevity, or more ultimate grip/fun. Mmmmm come on springtime.
  18. I've been licking my chops, and had my fingers crossed for serious rubber this year. None of the new 2013 hot sauces are coming my size though. Prob gonna have to stick with AD08's or something for the TTRS. A4 will probably get the PSS's due to their long wear, but relative awesomeness. Gonna hit up Derek when the weather is a bit better WOOT WOOT.
