Audi S8 ( 2003 D2 ) Barber Motorsports w/ Porsche Carrera GT

Went for the weekend with Audi Club of NA for a "driving instruction" event. This was the last session of the weekend. Got the pleasure of getting passed by people who know how to drive WAY better than I. Carrera GT and Lotus Elise. But fun anyway!

how many hp does your S8 have?

[S8GotGrip]

360 at the motor and about 275 to the wheels.

I think your driving lines are actually pretty good, give yourself some credit! Seems as though the guy in the Carrera GT could have been going a lot faster but either chose not to or didn't know how.

Thanks for the compliment. I was taking the line my in-car instructor was telling me to take. Worked pretty good. I agree, the Carrera GT driver could have gone faster. He did at the beginning of the day and went off track, so I think he toned his driving down some after that.

Is this already the 5-valve engine (AQH) ?

Pretty fast (and very rare) with the 6-speed-manual transmission.

[Spydrow]

Thx for the answer. So you haven't tweaked the engine, I thought you might have, because you are going real quick and because it says Barber Motorsports. You sure know how to drive around a track! :)

Congrats for the car, its the best car ever! :)

Ever since I heard that car scream in the movie Fracture, I've been in love! Wish I was one of you in that S8!

[Spydrow]
