Sorry. In DC on vacation.
S6 and S7 very quick.
We could not have full control due to the lead car controlling the speed.
The suspension was a bit soft. Oddly the S6 was tighter than the S7. Shared opinion of multiple drivers.
Engine and transmission combo is excellent. I drive the S6 in tip after a few laps with it in Auto as told to do.
I ended up sneaking in three extra laps due to lack of other drivers, so I took the S6 out four times. In tip the last two laps. Better control coming out of the corners with the gear I wanted. The thing I would have like to do would have been drive my RS6 on the same track and have noone pacing me.
Also driving the S8 on the track would have been nice.
The RS5 was great. R8 V10 WOW.
