Default My AutoXing the A4 with the Porsche club!

I said I would post this, and damnit here it finally is. I am actually embarrassed to report that I hit cones in the final 3 runs, but without getting external video of myself to analyze, it was very difficult to tell where I needed to work on my time. The A4 performed quite well despite the 4wd push lack of power

Before the event, I had the other resonator removed, so its just the muffler now. IMO it sounds quite nice, but would bother the ladies when carting them around...I will get that vid soon of the exhaust note.

Hmm dont know how to embed youtube here, so here is the link:

nice, but i think that its faster than 10sec 0-60mph. btw this looks like a lot of fun, how did your tires like it?

I bought brand new Falken performance tires for the event, about a month prior. Tires were fine, just a touch of graining going on from the push, and 12 runs for the day.I'll take a pic as its still visible, but really no tread wear loss. According to here: http://www.audiworld.com/model/ it takes 9.6s from 0-60mph. HOWEVER with 120k miles, I betcha its 10+seconds.
