    BIR - first timer at Audi Club HPDE

    Hi guys,

    Since I can't drive the car now with us being in the middle of winter here, I am relegated to making videos . A while back, I promised to post a video related to my first ever Audi Club HPDE event. This was with the Glacier Lakes Audi Club at their Quattroberfest event that took place on October 9 and 10, 2011. Here it is - please remember that this is posted from the perspective as a newbie. The track veterans are not likely going to get much out of this. I think if you watch this on the YouTube site, you can see it in 720P. This is my first YouTube video and post, so I may not have all of this right.

    Kerry,
    Very nice video. I have never seen a video with this much audio instruction. I fight the early turn-in all the time, especially turn three, four and six. I hope to see you next year. I have some video of this event, but I posted them back in October.

    Hi Don,

    I watched a few of your videos a while back. You seem very smooth on the track. Turn 6 does not register for me as one where I had as much trouble, but turn 10 sure does. I am really hoping my schedule works out so that I can get two events in next year. Road America and Brainerd again. I had to spend a fair bit of time searching through all my footage to end up with the clips I did. It had the impact of convincing me that I have to get back out to one or more of these events.
