In the latest issue of AutoBild's Sportscars edition there's a comparison test between the 685 hp MTM Audi RS6 R and the 733 hp HGP RS6. The MTM version -which already managed 330,0 km/h at Nardo last year- set a new laprecord for a station wagon around the so-called Mini-Nordschleife, the Sachsenring.

Under the hands of the magazine's pro-driver, Guido Naumann the tuned monster was 1,9 seconds quicker around the track than the basic-RS6, and it was also faster than the previous record-holder, the Mercedes E63 AMG S T-model.

The car performed very well on the straightline as well: with Launch Control it hit 100 km/h in 3,3 seconds. The 0-200 km/h time was 11,3 s; 300 km/h happened just after 35,7 seconds.

You can find all of the Sachsenring-laptimes here.

And here's a comparison video between the stock and the tuned RS6:

^According to Sport Auto this is the more powerful, 722-hp-version. It has 37-more-hp than what the AutoBild Sportscars-testcar had.
However it was a bit slower at the straightline, 0-100 km/h in 3,4 s (3,3 s), 0-200 km/h in 11,4 s (11,3 s) and 0-250 km/h in 19,2 s (18,8 s).

Of course, we have to keep in mind that SA tests with two persons onboard.
