I go to MAC Autosport. They have a run of the mill dynojet and were one of the first economical AWD dynos in colorado. Since they opened there have been quite a few better AWD dynos pop up, but I continue to go there because that's where all my baselines are, along with lots of other audis from the area.

Out of everyone here, I honestly think Jim's got it the worst. He's the only dude I know who physically or mentally NEEDs and HAS (as in, actually completed) a 550-650hp daily driver.

:-D Just got back from a little road trip down to Colorado Springs and thought to myself yet again as the wife was screaming from the passenger seat how much I love this car.

Hey Jim, did you come home with your bumpers intact? I heard a handfull of S4 owners weren't so lucky.

Snow until it gets swept away from people driving on it, then ice, and the only snow on track is what gets added by people using the walls to slow down, whether on purpose or not.
The track literally changes every lap as to where there is traction.
I'll be out there next week Feb. 8-9 with Scott Justusson's group. Pictures and info at

Is it set up on a lake or is it a purpose built course, with an ice base? Sam
