Sunset Red 1.4 TSI(TFSI) GT Sport - daily drive & track car

Thanks for the comment Stefan!
You have a good point about recovering from an oversteer. I used to much steering angle and when I regained traction the car trowed me in the opposite direction.
I definitely need much more practice until I can make a nice and clean recovery. Unfortunately, by controlling the car at low speeds over gravel and snow I lean nothing. The semislicks go from immense grip to none and back very quickly and I am nowhere near prepared for that.

Time for some minor updates....

1. The Pagid RS 4-4 Orange pads needed replacing after one year of daily drive and trackdays. Although I was really happy with the current setup I wanted something different and I chose the Pagid RS-29 Yellow pads. I managed to install the pads yesterday and there was no time for bedding them in so I can't offer a review yet. Here are some photos:











2. I will try to get rid of the rear wiper, so I bought these:



Hope to do the operation this weekend (not sure if I have the time).

3. I tinted the tail lights but not enough for my taste so I will redo the operation and post some pictures when I am done.

All the best!  :driver:

Good, these pads should have much better byte at higher speeds !

rex:
Honestly, if they are as good as the RS 4-4 ones but last longer, I am, very, very happy.
Can't wait to test them on the Ring  :smiley:  :driver:

I didn't realise but I took some pics of this at Spa in 2011. Noticed as I was looking through my pics.
