Okay, but only 2 persons so far?
then you will have only 2 movies and no pictures.
(but you get 2 nice films with pictures in it)

Your RS8 is stunning. Looks like a ton of fun at the track. I bet the electric was a nightmare/challenge

Do you drive it on the street too or is it a track only car? The coilovers and springs are KW? The only lowering springs I have seen so far are the Eibach springs. I'm thinking of getting those for my '01 A8. Adjustable would be nice though.

I also drive on the street and to and from the track.

It is available Kw ver1 to the A8 / S8,
but I wanted something much better so these are custom built KW Competition, built for my car weight with race tires and for track days.

I have the 2-way version you can read about them here:

KW competition /// race suspension developed for National and International motorsports action

Great videos. Love the two camera set-up in the first video. Fun watching you track somebody down, hold them off and pull away on the straight aways.

Photos were telling as well. The red Elise looked like a toy car compared to the S8.
