@Driveitlikeyoustoleit Yup, but there's lots of music over it. Think this was it's very first time out and the crew are using this year to develop it

@hypodermic I guess it depends on driving style? You obviously can't left foot brake when using the handbrake as you need to keep the clutch depressed, and if you use your right foot to control the brakes you're coming off the throttle which may not be desirable. This way you can keep the throttle absolutely nailed so when you come off the brake(s) and clutch, you already have maximum engine speed. You could heel and toe, but this is probably a simpler solution. Would love to see it in action just to see how effective it is.
@tbtstt After every two runs, they had to wait for the average noise levels to return to normal before going back out again. The staff & marshals at Goodwood were awesome though, and really enjoyed Fredric & Mike.
@Jordan_Burgess Be sure to say hello!
@JDMized On my phone and llnk won't open, is that the 964 'GT3 RS'? If so, that is an amazing build.
@AnthonyAlaux Out of curiosity, I looked further into this. The S7 comes with an S7 badge in the front grill, not an /S badge. I think it's an option to specify the /S badge on S Line cars from the dealer much like some times how you would see a BMW 520D Sport with an ///M badge on the boot lid.
Whether it's right or not, is a different conversation...
In case some are wondering, I've just removed a couple of recent comments.

Now, let's get back to things, shall we?
@KietaPhillips It ran the Nordschleife & the Karussell, it loaded on and off the Euro Tunnel without issue, and destroyed the Autobahn all at that height. It's setup absolutely perfect.
Really cool car a great feature to boot. Nice one guys!
@Lastspark I thought you drove a 318iS with an S50b30 swap?
@TheB1ackAdderr It's no secret that we enjoy cars from all scenes, in fact it's probably the one thing that separates us from everyone else - we have no boundaries or preconceptions. All are welcome.
@BevinWhite I would love to have seen this first on an Autobahn in the middle of the night, can you imagine the impact it would have?
@zephoto That's what's good about it! It's such a unique look, I love how it's so visually interesting to look at. The first time I saw it at Wörthersee, I was taken aback. I knew it wouldn't be to everyones taste, but we need these sort of cars every now and then to challenge our own beliefs.
@AnthonyAlaux Pretty sure that Audi put those badges on when leaving the factory. Note that it's not an S7, it's an A7 S Line :)
@JoeWhaler Will give our guys a heads up, but I can't replicate the issue across multiple platforms / browsers. Can you screen grab it and send it to paddy@speedhunters.com ?
It's the same layout we've used for over a year now?
The E46 saloon.... *swoon*
