Ok, you don't have anything to add.  Interesting that you can do it, and 
audis own race drivers (with all due respect to your resume) don't *have* to. 
 Or *want* to.  Poor driving techniques or just better devices available?

Absolutely, in fact Greg, that was me helping Valerie (soon to be Howell) 
firmly planted in a snowbank, IN the apex (for the 12th time or so:).  Never 
see lockers doing that.  BTW, anyone that's been to Steamboat for 5 years 
knows, I've never needed a tow or push out of the banks, and am one of the 
fastest at that venue.  And I won an SCCA rallycross there in a borrowed q.  
Come on out Greg, a bunch of us would love to see you make your point.  Low 
cf is such a great equalizer.

Interesting comment from a guy that puts up his *own* expert testimony on 
BIRA.  I don't claim I'm smart, I only *claim* I'm an idiot.  I also claim 
while driving a torsen center audi, I'm in good company.  Did you read any of 
the posts?  What exactly do you disagree with?

You should read objectively, instead of trying to "get revenge" over your 
brake thing.  How would you know if the information I posted *isn't* in the 
paper if you haven't read it?

Appreciate the feedback.  I'm also in good company again.

Ok, I challenge you to make your point. Steamboat is the last weekend in Jan. 
 Mark your calender.

Unfortunately, audis own race drivers walked too, away from the torsen.

Greg, BS walks?  Promise to bring your car to steamboat, and let's drop this. 
 Chest puffing is fun, this banter is a WOB.  Put up dude, I know what *you* 
claim, it's all over your BIRA site.  I presume if I send in my 20bux, I can 
get the same membership benefits the rest receive?  Glad to see your resume 
is not *membership* required.  Let's add Steamboat to that resume, a great 
test of anyones resume.

Thanks for your response, quite telling.  If you want to continue, please do 
post privately
