Done.  On the way to work this morning...  15 psi in 2nd and 3rd a couple of times (Sure sounds like I have a bypass valve even though I don't, I wonder what _that_ is...) and some incipient lockup under braking...  er, well maybe not so incipient considering the cloud of tire smoke that passed me while I sat at the traffic light.  ;-)

I don't think urq's like to be driven sedately, Ed.  You better go out and
drive the #$&# out of her to keep her happy.  or else you'll pay....

> In the last 2 days, I have alternated between 3 of my Audis, the '85 urq,
the '87.5 CGT, and the '91 V8q 5spd.  I noticed that I have a different
driving mode for each.  In the urq, I drive sedately but alertly as if ready
to pounce.  In the V8, I'm sort of in cruise mode, though more cruise
missile than cruise ship.  In the CGT, it only takes a mile or two and I'm
in go-cart mode.

for lunch I was hitting redline in 1st and 2nd every time and was actually
in a bit of a 4-wheel drift momentarily on my usual interstate cloverleaf
offramp.  I chose to return to work after lunch in the V8.
