Q feel just a little big???? Eric, Actually, compared to the parking lot autocrosses that I usually run, the track at Waterford felt big. I do wonder though, how all those cars can run and PASS on that track during a real race. > Jeff, here's the key; Go deep, Stand on the brakes, and Power out. It > works. I did use my brakes very hard. If my RX7 had had those brakes, I would have taken a couple seconds off. The first time I braked for the turn at the end of the long back straight with the Quattro, I had to get back on the gas to get to the turn! (I have the dual piston calipers, and the race prepped, cross drilled rotors from Bob D'Amato - they are very effective) Later, Graydon D.
