He's likely more heavier with the AWD. If hasn't chipped his car, it won't even be a race.

No need to race him. Besides, you already have him beat on the looks department (unless he got the S-Line Package)

Edit:

Audi A4 2.0T Quattro (Auto) 1660 kg = 3659.67 lbs
BMW 328i E90 (Auto) 1545 kg = 3406.14 lbs

Difference = 253.53 lbs + you have 30 more horses although 7 less torque

Is his car stock? You should be able to take him with your additional HP and lighter weight.

You should have no problem. The Audi 2.0T are quite slow (0-60 in 7 sec vs 6.1 for the 328i).

E92 is about 5 pounds heavier than the E90.

You will be faster in the bends as well.

Frankly it's not even a race between the cars. Until he chips his car that is.

I wouldn't egg him on...just act casual...say it will be a close race. Then one day open up the taps and just walk past his car.

Make sure you do this on the drag strip or a closed course. Street racing
