Different car, but brought my MK6 GTI on all-season tires out to the track after a long hiatus. Drove the piss out of it. Story of the day was understeer. Corner entry, corner exit. Even with trail-braking, the car just did not want to rotate and would run wide. That said, it was fun taking a step back and lapping at 8/10ths. The car seemed better balanced under the limit, and tire wear (melt?) evened out F-R.
One interesting thing I saw - my max speed on the back straight was only 98 mph, whereas with the FR-S, I routinely hit 103 mph. The GTI should be faster, so I would guess that's all about corner exit speed leading to the straight.
Getting absolutely destroyed by a buddy of mine driving his stage 2 TT-RS on P Zero Corsas.
Slowly chasing down an S5, but did manage to get a point-by eventually.
The GTI rolls over and play dead.
