Default Review from my Track Day at Barbers

Thanks guys for all your info leading up to the event this past weekend. I was the lone Audi out there. There was a GTI however. I even met a fellow forum member out there. Anyway, I had the time of my life! I know everyone said understeer, but to be honest, I didn't think anything of it since I had nothing to compare it to. I was a complete rookie. The track seemed very difficult to say the least. Lots of hills and turns. Beautiful facility...World Class. The car performed great. Tires held up well and the fuel consumption was amazing (didn't suck it down). I was running 100 octane as well. I learned a lot from the first session to my final session and became a lot faster. My instructor was great. I must admit, it sucks to see these Infiniti G35 4 door coupes blow by me..... Those cars are great performers for the money! There were some wrecks, I am just glad I wasn't one of them! It really felt amazing out there, the TT represented well! Thanks again for the advice. I just listened to the instructor, took it all in, and he gave me a great review!
