They want you to explore the limits of the car...granted it's within reason in the conditions you're in.

damn sounds like fun. i registered but then decided against it, since it would have been at least 60 miles or more one way to fontana for me, plus the chance of hitting traffic and nobody to carpool with me back. ah well im registered for the audi event in november.

haha it does look really big.

yes they let you go all out. its one of the most fun things I have ever done.

I am looking over some racing schools. Maybe we could make it a club thing and get a discount, anyone interested?

Nice! It was a great time in Chicago! Many of the same faces at the event. Must be neat for them to travel around to the different cities for this event.

Enjoy it while you can! The whole set up is worth the time!

I went yesterday morning and it gotta be an experience that I'll never forget. I love the IS350 F-Sport, the exhaust sounds REALLY nice!! My fastest time in the cone course was 25.06 in the IS350 F-Sport, it made me feel like home so I beat the hell out of it!!
