Since many of you are track nuts..here are some pics

S4to335 · 04-16-2008, 01:56 PM

Yes, there are no BMW pics..but lots of other cool ones. I was instructing the R8 (#10), the Audi A4 (#43) and another car not shown Audi A8 W12 (like the car in Transporter 2). I ended up mis-shifting in the A4 (#43) car..and the clutch went out. ...this was midday on day 2 of the event. That is when I got to drive the R8 on the track. Anyway, enjoy. The Audi S4 (Derek Bell's old Speedvision World Challenge GT car) is now owned by a friend of mine. One of these days I will ask him if I can take it out for a session.

More pics are here:

very nice, why does that R8 from the second pic look different than the other one? looks almost stretched

S4to335 · 04-16-2008, 05:00 PM

No difference

I admire the fact that these R8 drivers didn't just buy the car and drive them to Santana Row on the weekends and actually go out and beat the crap out of them. Sweet.

Chowbow...did you know my current office is not 1/8th of a mile from THAT parking lot at Santana Row?

Sounds like you work at a sweet place then... You definitely have good choices around for lunch! And not only do you beat the crap out of your car on the track, you beat the crap out of OTHER people's cars too!
