2000 SS vs. 2000 WS6
even though I own a 00 T/A A4, I am going to have to say the SS may win over the WS6 for one reason, and one reason only... the SS is much lighter than the WS6. my friend has a 2000 SS A4 and with only a lid, bellows, FRA, and Nitto's he pulled a 13.05 @ 106.92mph on a 1.93 60'
my can of pepsi tastes better than your can of pepsi!!!!!
lets see here.... same engine.... same drive train.... near identical weight... *ponders* yep! i see a clear winner!!!
someone argued aerodynamic drag on this topic? you gotta be kidding me lol! maybe at mach speeds the aerodynamic differences between an ss and a ws6 "might" cause a significant performance difference to discuss.... but not with sub 110mph trap speeds? your compairing a ws6 to an ss.... not a semi...
these topics are always good for a laugh

Same damn car. It's useless arguing the smallest possible differences between the two.
The better driver will win with all else being equal (transmission, tires, and gears.)

I agree !

Although the SS may be a bit lighter, it is not by much. Definitly not enought to change the outcome of the race. It all comes down to the drivers.
I dunno... With all things equal, if the WS6 has the optional seats, that driver will be more comfortable than the one driving the SS... and therefore have a significant advantage.
And if the race occurs at night, that special night vision "We've gone red" dashboard in the TA should be another significant advantage to the WS6 driver... these have to add up to a micron or two in winnings...
They are the same damn car. If the WS6 makes more HP from the ram air, then it has more frontal area, and more drag from all the fake swoops and scoops (not to mention the real ones) to counteract the advantage.
oh, and an 03 cobra will smoke them both

of course the cobra wins, how about i throw a s/c on my ss and then let's see who would win?

[sigh]...you can't say that, ok?
That's like a ricer saying to you: "Well, just give me 3.5 more liters and 4 more cylinders, then we'll see who wins."
*Oh and for all that care, SPYK is still around, posting more bs...he's under the name wsman6, check the kill forum.
Its amazing that you can stir the pot so easily here. I just figured I might as well give this pointless thread two cars with a difference to compare, instead of comparing two cars assembled at the same plant , using the same engineering, and the same components.
How is this thread Ls1 tech anyhow? Im leanin towards lounge level thread here...
