A4
3.42
Torson T2R

5200rpm = 163mph
Torque Converter locks at 90mph.

The car does not spend much time below 110mph when it is working and the setup was definitely not optimal for TWS.

Nice video. I never been to that track, but to me it seemed like you could have reved that engine a little more, it would have helped you come off the corners quicker. Since yours is an A4, you can put it into 3rd and leave it. It will keep you in gear, the car won't 'free wheel' when your foot is off the pedal.
I saw that you had an instructor, but don't let that stop you from pushing it hard. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Don't worry about your set up too much at this point, just sqeeze the throttle from corner apex to the braking point... than do it again. (at least that is what I do)
