To: AUDI >Do driving school instructors approach a Quattro differently >from a rear or front drive car? I Auto-x a lot, and have helped teach driving at solo schools. What I have noticed with my Q, is that it behaves much more like a FWD than a RWD, so FWD drive techinques should be used. If nicely balanced and driven, the AWD will just be easier to control than a FWD (ie, no wheel spin exiting corners, and the FWD will pull you out of some oversteer problems :-) ) >Have Hans Stuck or Hurley Hayward ever given a Quattro School? >Has Audi ever sponsored or endorsed a school? This would be awesome! I've seen footage of Stuck and Hayward doing some amazing foot work and driving. >I think a hot Solo-II strategy would be to do a rain dance >and hope no other awd cars show up. I've had hats and various other things thrown at me as I did my usual "rain dance" during questionable weather events. BTW, once I learned to drive a bit, I consistantly took top stock time of the day in the rain :-) ---JCG.
