Personally I think it's sad "we need to do something about our children's education" what do you mean raise taxes to pay for it? what do you mean we have to cut city funding. Every year I see it more and more, the teachers working harder and getting paid less. Schools that were once an abundant source of new technologies and fresh books have become swamped with the burden of rising costs, overcrowding and a lack of funding.
that said .. i'm sure he can formulate a scentence if he wanted to but since when did the internet have a set of grammadical rules. Find me a place that says he has to speak any form of proper english while surfing the internet.
And "yall" is nothing more than geographic discourse, in this case southern discourse. So if one is from a southern state yall (or y'all) is an exceptable form of saying "you all"
pardon me if i come across rude however I used to have to endure this type of stereotyping and commenting and it's very uncalled for.

I'm going to put my money on you, but it really could go either way. As mentioned earlier, gearing will probably be a big factor. I'm pretty sure all A4 WS6's and SS's came with 3.23's. I don't know if you're running the 2.73's or the 3.15's. Hopefully the 3.15's. But the ability to hook up is the key. I've seen WS6's run anywhere between 13.2 and 14.1 stock.
My stock 2.73 geared Z28 ran 13.6 stock. My buddy's 97 stock A4 2.73 geared C5 ran 13.7 stock, while my 01 A4 C5 with the 3.15's runs 13.2 stock.
Just race him (at the track) and hope for the best. If you win, you win. If you lose, you lose. The f-body's are great in the straight line. But you still know that overall you have the better car... by far. I own both, so I know that for a fact.
Keep it safe.

I see, it's the schools fault he shows up on a public forum and displays enough ignorance to make me gag, and apparently a few others by some of the other comments made in this thread. My post stands!
My wife is a teacher, and I have PERSONALLY worked in the education arena for over 14 years. It's not the schools MR., it's lazy students and lazier parents. The education is there if the kids want it, pure and simple. This kid should be ashamed of himself.
Maybe you should hire him WHEN he graduates, then do us a favor and report back on what a quality productive employee he his.

I am former owner of 4 LS1 F-Bodies. I traded in a 12.8 ws6 for my vette. My WS6 had Loud Mouth, Volant CAI, ED Wright PCM, Gutted Cats, and Lou's Short Stick. It was dynoed at 360 RWHP and 380 ft. lbs. torque. I think a stock C5 Corvette and a lightly modded WS6, it would come down to the driver.

There is nothing wrong with using the word Yall. I think they teach it in English class in the deep south. Yall come back for some alligator grits ya hear!
