correct, it shouldn't beat the stock TT in the 1/4 mile. Now, if we are talking about my friend's 2002 M3 SMG that I get to drive 3-4 times a week stock vs a TT stock, like my 1995 if it were stock, I think that it would definitely beat the TT in the 1/4 mile. I thought a full all out launch in the TT was scary, this new M3 is so fast... it will make you shit bricks. That is how fast this machine is... like the hand of God forcing you into the seats under full acceleration. Thankfully, this car can't beat my TT now... heh heh heh.
