enter corner... understeer like crazy... set up for next corner... understeer... oversteer... straighten out... oversteer with big laughs... repeat for rest of course....

I was tossing it around having too much fun... the Audi is an understeer pig!

Set the car, clutch in and pull the e-brake EARLY ... power slide through the rest.

Yeah, I was using a lot of e-brake, but if I went in too hot into that hard right before the big cones, it'd always wash wide. Seemed to happen almost every run, except a couple times when I managed to set it up right and hit the apex close, then it worked. Doing that though meant going wide on the entry where there was all kinds of loose stuff from everyone else taking a tighter entry than me. The big cone corner, well, that was almost always laughable throttle oversteer, I could transition into that really early and be totally sideways if not almost backwards before I got to it Wink

Things were run rather informally, and towards the end of the day some competitors (such as myself) ended up missing a run or two because they were doing a run of the driveway. Others, well, I dunno why they chose not to do all their runs. After I got back from doing the driveway I went straight to the short course but it was already being packed up. Meh, thus is life.
