@BigBluu Come join me, I'm registered for all three days. PCA-GGR DE #7
Thanks for invite, but can't do that weekend. I'm hoping to be there 10/21 though with NCRC (much cheaper too!)
So was at Sonoma this past Monday with SpeedSF, first track day with the 3. I was the only electric, and probably only one of three total sedans. It was a weekday, so smaller field.
My on track experience with it is similar to my previous S4. Both I had upgraded only to summer tires, semi-track pads and RBF600. They both are similar in power, weight and AWD. The weight and brakes are the biggest weaknesses. Best lap time in the 3 was a 2:09 vs 2:13 in the S4. My priority is to bring it back in one piece, not set records. Battery consumption was much better than expected after reading some of you using 50% and up per session. I was using about 25% per 20-min session, hitting the SC during lunch break. There was a free Chargepoint there, but almost useless as it was solar-powered. The only issue I had was getting the high brake temp warnings. Doing a slower lap in the 2:30's about every 3rd/4th lap got rid of it. Wish track mode was available for non-performance as well. Had many other drivers commenting how this was first time they saw an electric on track and asked about battery consumption and how cool it was flying across the front straight silently. Overall, had fun first time out with it and looking forward to Laguna next month.
