    All VW Driving Experience courses are fully booked now.

    I'd suggest that onyone who wants to meet up on the day PM other forum members close to the event date so they can meet up on the day.

    Well, yesterday was fun - great weather which was a tad lucky (given Sunday weather)

    The course was very well run, military precision, on time, well structured, flowed well
    The instructors were friendly, professional, knowledgeable and motivational

    Looking forward to Wednesday, Evolution using Scirocco R

    Re: VW Driving Experience 2013 - Who's Going When?

    Spotted... a heap of Golfs! And a bunch of "driven only by grandma" Scirocco Rs hehe. Two courses at Eastern Creek Monday, Progression and Evolution. Carpark:


    Track:



    I did the Evolution this time, was on the same track as the Progression last year, the Progression this year goes around the back part of the circuit. Did some very quick laps and some not so quick turns into turn 2 (that was a pain trying to get right, instructors always wanted me out wider than I naturally want to do). Was a great afternoon actually, instructors our group of 4 (per 2 cars) had were both great fun guys. The Progression course was with Golf7 Highlines, not Gti's though. We didn't have any Golf Rs, just the Scirroco R.
    Lots of smoking brakes come the pit stops after the laps by the 2nd group too!

    This is pooled first runs (2 full laps + in/out) and 2nd (4 full laps + in/out), took it from the telemetry file that comes with the video they record of us... see I was getting quicker through turn 1, but as a result, slower through turn 2 (just not using enough brake and going in too hot), almost ended up in the grass once...

    The Scirocco was awesome
    It's an impressive drive for sure

    Hit 194kmph down the straight

    In the Golf 7 I was pulling .8~.9 G in the corners
    In the Scirocco I was pulling up to 1.1 G in the corners

    (Pulled 1.3 G once but that was a stuff up, too fast into a corner, when the car gained bite and finally rotated I got a 1.3 peek, ugly)

    It'll always be Eastern Creek! :p

    Been there many times - IIRC, SMP now has a few configurations of the circuit, tony's data does not look like the typical 'tadpole' I'm used to. I can't post motec that I have for comparison, but it looks like the data is missing a corner or two.
