    Ok everyone..I will openly put my hand up for being responsible..and I apoligise for this..I am the Black TT ..I admit running hard this morning and to honest I did abide by pre cruise briefing only passing on front straight. Etc..
    I have moved on to Timeattack as Paul has suggested for those who dipped there toes in the water and enjoy it..and I couldn't speak more highly of the format that is run..give it a go..
    I will refrain from adventurous driving in the future and hope that I haven't spoilt the day for anybody..
    Cheers and stay safe everyone

    Yeah true... I didn't really see any suspect driving either. There was a couple of situations where people in front could have got into a sticky situation approaching the kink, but they recognised it and backed off safely.

    I got pinged too. Not really sure where I failed their standards, I think I only got in one clear lap before I picked up an overboost code and called it a day.
    There was quite a few cars that came off early. It was really hot today.
    I apologise too Paul, for causing you to get the quiet word.

    Yeah, at first I thought we'd had our session based on how my car was feeling. I don't think I would have stayed out much longer.

    Hey, Thank you!

    The BMW is definitely a more lively and fun car, but it's a bit more tail happy.

    The Audi would understeer a lot more, so I could mash the throttle at any time and actually go fast. In the BMW, I'm very scared to hit the throttle through a corner.

    I find myself also liking the suspension in the BMW a lot more. The car needs some lowering springs, so it stays more flat ( and doesn't look like kite). At the moment, it is a bit of a boat.

    In general though - even though I went a bit slower, I think it was just more fun.

    It was definitely a different session to what I have experienced in the past at HL lakeside but I also didn't see anyone driving disrespectfully. Actually quiet the opposite, people were moving over on the straight and staying within their limits from what i witnessed...

    As mentioned before by others, I think there is a wide spread of driver and car ability but in my view we all reconginse that...

    Apologies if I held anyone up or appeared erratic driving, I was slowing down to give me some space and then speeding up to have fun...

    A hot day and an early session but all in all a good morning without incident...

    Hey guys I've dumped all the photos I took on my dropbox... I hope the link works. Wish I got there earlier to get more n track shots.

    Apologies in advance if I didn't get your car or if it's a little out of focus. I'm a bit of an amateur.

    There aren't any watermarks and I'm not charging $ yet. So if you use on social media could you please tag my instagram page using ''@VW.Queensland'' TIA
