Title: Audi Driver Int'l Show - Video
Post by: FJ1000 on October 17, 2016, 07:55:59 am
Vid I put together of RS246's convoy to the event, stand, and a bit of track action (parade laps + 3 actual laps before I got chucked off the track!)

Turn the music up and enjoy!

Thanks for creating that and sharing! Looks though you had a good day! Must get to ADI one year as it is the closest track to me, and I'm partial to a bit of Audi aural porn in terms of the classic 5-cyl UR Quattro and the V8's of your RS4. Looks as though there were some great cars there.

So, why the black flag? Noise limits?

Yeah, I was fairly sure it was going to happen to be fair! The static noise test is at 4500rpm; so keep it in normal mode and the exhaust valves in my custom stay closed up to 5k revs. So I passed.

But then, on the track with the valves open in sports mode, its bonkers!

I just booked the one track session rather than a half or full day, and thought I'd see how far I'd make it before getting chucked off the track! Answer: 3 proper laps, and the parade laps before that.
