Default It was awesome, great people, great cars, perfect weather, and a ton of fun

I am pleased to say that my new subie held it's own against the competition, although it is in serious need of a brake upgrade. I was thinking Brembo Gran Tursimo all around, but now that I know there are other options to change out the rotors and pads, I think I am gonna stick to that.

the link is to the pictures that Matt Daniels took, he is the photographer for Audi and Audiworld. They have the watermark on them, but you get the idea.

cheers

Default GREAT!

had a whole lot of fun. Allroad is still quick, but I am learning to drive my wife's 330 around the track faster than it.

My allroad was about as quick as 03Indigo's new subaru. Once he upgrades his brakes though I won't be able to keep up.

As for Pic's, I was too busy having fun and never got around to taking any.

Matt Daniels was there though (pro photographer who takes many of the Audiworld photos). he got a bunch of great ones that are on his site. just follow the link and click on the photos for the Rocky Mtn Club B5 track day.<ul><li><a href="http://www.getoutanddrive.com/">http://www.getoutanddrive.com/</a</li></ul>

Default Sounds great. I really like that track, running 1:21's backwards

in the old 911s last August. What kind of times did you turn in the xt??

Default I did not get times with me driving, but with Mark Bradley driving

going clockwise, he turned a 1:22 with 2 passengers and bad brakes. He has about 6000 laps there, so he knows the track really well, and he was driving so I could get shots. I bet with more time in the car and better brakes, he could get in the 1:18 range....and dumping the 2 passengers would help too

Default Backwards is better for the allroad. the boot at the end of the front straight becomes a downhill

corner and unweights the allroad nicely giving it just the right balance of slide and grip. :-)
