<< The point I wanted to make was the commentaters commented that the Audi
drivers
 can control the front to rear torque split from within the car and are 
 apparently continually adjusting this for different parts of the circuit.
 It obviously took Jones a few laps to sort out the conditions before he
really
 started flying. >>
...  And I would propose that the 80/20 and v.v. from in the car will not
last(read bmw protest 1997) once the history is complete on tracks and
conditions of each race....  The next logical step is to install a
preprogrammed computer for each track/condition....  This whole cockpit
adjustable f/r equation audi will have to enter carefully as not to get the
boot like ABS did in Indy cars, or just booted as in Trans Am here in US.....
