Two laps of Infineon Raceway in an Audi R8 road car during the Audi Sportscar Experience

A couple of laps around Infineon Raceway (previously known as Sears Point) during the Audi Sportscar Experience, June 2009. This was a two-day driving school featuring Audi R8 cars. The cameras are in the R8. My instructor was following closely in the red Audi S5. That's his voice you hear on the radio.

@rufusvonstorm This is a driving school and the cars are provided, so I didn't get to spec the tires. (They were high-performance street tires.)

What was the highest speed?

[MachVDan]

A little over 100 mph.

Wonderful experience! I'm saving my pennies to go to the Skip Barber racing School! Well worth every penny.

I did the Audi Driving Experience 1/2-day program last summer at the Autobahn Country Club outside Chicago (Joliet, IL). It was the best time I've ever had in a car, driving that R8 on the track. It's a shame last year was the, um, last year Audi did the program there. It appears the programs are only at Infineon these days.

Thanks for posting the vid and letting me relive the moment a bit!

Nice driving, asuming your a novice racer... Would love this opportunity in Australia. Love the R8!
