Default A4 traction

Seeing as how it is a pretty quiet and warm evening and all homework is done, I decided to drive my 96 A4 2.8Q to some empty parking lot. I never abuse my car in ANY way, but when it comes to making sharp turns, the car handles better than an M3 (or atleast compares to an M3).

I just thought I'd share my comments on this awesome handling and traction...I love my car.

cali, do you have the sport suspension or something aftermarket? i'm not too impressed with my stock setup. could be that it's just worn out though, i've got 138k miles.

Yeah, this car just squats and grips in the same turns that my Scion tC used to screech and understeer through at the same speeds. And the Audi has snow tires. I haven't even gotten a chance to flog it with some decent rubber yet. I can't wait to. Thinking about getting some 17s with Goodyear Eagle1s for this summer, to go along with my planned K04 and koni coilovers.
