Slippin and slidin

Actually there wasn’t too much of that but I did finally get a chance to autocross the Audi A3 last Saturday.  Unfortunately it rained pretty much all day so that damped the mood a bit.  Still, it was fun to get back into it with the new season starting.  The A3 did quite well and felt pretty solid.  Can’t say the same for the driver, but that’s kind of the point, right?  To improve?  I ran completely stock, not even adding pressure to the tires.  I could feel them rolling over a bit but it didn’t seem to be too bad.  I tried a couple of different modes and the best I found was Sport mode and ESP off.

I’m very much looking forward to the next event I’ll be able to make it to.

Here’s some in-car videos I shot:
