OK!  www.nsxfiles.com does have a good write-up, but they fail to cover the
Quattro side of things... 
	their coverage seems strangely slanted toward NSX  (no surprise :-)

  They do post the results and it looks like Dean Treadway turned in a
>very< respectable performance.  I've never seen his car, but he was my
driving instructor last year at Mid-Ohio.  I rode as a passenger in the car
he was driving, a rented TT w/180 hp and fwd.  His driving skill is awesome
and it was a thrill I'll never forget.  Time after time entering a curve I
had a sensation that we were going off the road, but he was in complete
control.  It was like riding a roller coaster, except those are on rails.
And this was only a fwd car with street tires!

Someday I hope to attend the VC HillClimb (it's only a 5,000 mile round
trip from here), but in the meantime, if any of you Q-heads go, how about a
trip report for the rest of us poor unfortunates?
Please?  
I'm begging Ya!
