Audi S4 road racing at Lime Rock Park, May 2011 - GIAC tuned
2002 Audi S4 6-speed driving at Lime Rock Park in CT with the Audi Club.
Note - the camera is mounted on the driver's side foglight, hence why it appears I'm ~5 feet away from all right-hand turn apexes!
For reference, at the end of the main straight speed is around 120-122 in 5th gear. While running the GIAC programming, I'm in 3rd and 4th around the rest of the track
This session mods:
GIAC 93 octane program with 1.5 degrees advanced timing (Lemmiwinks)
SSAC cat-back
Vast Water/Methanol injection
ST Coilovers (made by KW)
Vast Stage 3 clutch

B5 Audi S4 quattro VAST Stage 3 FrankenTurbo Borla 0-60 mph AWD Launch Control & Drift...
A video compilation demonstrating the 2-step "launch control" feature of my custom VAST performance Stage 3 Frankenturbo tune. When the vehicle is stopped, the rev limit is set at 4,400 RPM for consistent launching. While holding this RPM, the turbos can produce up to about 6 psi with no load.
With this setup, 0-60 mph times in the high 3's are obtainable with a quick 1-2 shift.
The S4 also has piggie downpipes and a Borla single 3 inch Exhaust system.
Some bonus footage of a coworker who had never ridden in a semi-fast car before is also included. :-)
*edit* Unfortunately the girl in this video has passed away of Cystic Fibrosis (4/20/2013). RIP. She was a wonderful girl and will be missed by many.
Enjoy!

5/14 Autocross - 1st Run B6 Audi S4
This was my first autocross. Sadly the camera only captured this run before running out of batteries. 2005 Audi S4
M3 chasing a Corvette at LRP
Stock E90 M3 chasing a Tuned Corvette Grand Sport at LRP. The Corvette had ~445HP at the wheels, so I am giving away 80hp. The M3 was faster through the turns, but could not keep up on the straights. I have more lines than Shakespeare through Big Bend and The Esses! Good fun! Apart from the clip at the end when I thought I had "bought it" at Turn 7 below the Uphill!
Lime Rock Park: Ferrari Challenge 2012
See more at http://hittingredline.com/ .
Last year's Ferrari Challenge at Lime Rock may have represented the first video of HittingRedline.com, but this year was even better. Better equipment, a better plan, and - hopefully - a better video. The cars present were just as fantastic as always, too; two Ferrari 599 GTOs (including one from here in Vermont), a pair of 365 Daytona Coupes and one Spider, a stunning blue 330, and a hyper-rare 250 GTO 4.0. The Challenge cars were amazing, too, with Ferrari themselves going as far as to bring a bare-paint example to their display.
The soundtrack to this film includes a composition by Elijah Brown, as well as several pieces ("Movement Proposition" and "Five Armies") by Kevin MacLeod ( http://incompetech.com/ ).
B8 S4 chasing B5 S4 @ Geschwindigkeit 2011 - Pacific Raceways
Running in my group, I finally found a car to "play" with. :)
Please note, NO BASHING. No B8 vs B5 banter please. The owner was really cool and we shook hands and had mutual admiration/respect for each other.
B8 S4 mods (mine):
APR 91 octane (with Pulley file)
APR Supercharger pulley
APR RSC Exhaust
APR Stage II Carbonio Intake
StopTech Street Performance pads (front - lol melting)
StopTech Posi-Quiet pads (rear - lol also melted)
StopTech stainless steel brake lines
Motul RBF-600 brake fluid
Pump Gas (Chevron/76 92 octane)
B5 S4(?):
Stage III Stasis (as per owner)
Ohlins/Stasis coilovers (jealous)
Alcon brakes all four corners (jealous too)
Race gas (110 me thinks).
GREAT GREAT drive! Had such a blast!
Hot laps in 06 Cayman S at Harris Hill Road CW (1st time drove there)
Date: 8/22/2010 (3PM or so, 100F ish)
Car: 2006 Porsche Cayman S (stock, no PASM or Sports Chrono)
Load: driver and passenger
Tire: Sumitormo HTR Z III (brand new 235/40R18, 265/40R18)
Camera: GoPro HD (4:3 960P setting)
Description: I brought my newly purchased used 2006 Porsche Cayman S to Harris Hill Road too see how it feels like. This was my first time to sports drive the car and I've never run the track before. The car had brand new Sumitomo HTR Z III what the dealer I bought put on. Standard seat, normal seat belts.
I had only 2 short sessions (15min. or so each) and the video is during the last 2 laps of my 2nd session when I made hot laps for the day though the second lap was more like checking the car behavior over the limit. Still learning the track and the car so there is a lot of things I need to work on. Also, the car had a small issue that the stability control can't be off during braking (need to remove a connector at the top of a brake pedal). Anyhow, it was fun!!
Some spots of the track were very bumpy as many other drivers have mentioned but the track layout was interesting and I will be back with better grip tires!! Thanks Eric, one of the owners for giving me this opportunity!!
