Small update:

Trial by fire for the car, day after alignment took it straight to Grand Bend to run a few sessions. Ended up cutting the night short to race home (pun intended) and go to the drive-in movies.

The Gloc R12/R6 combo with the wider 17x9 wheels and RS4 were excellent. Super communicative, even while being scrubbed in. The Ohlins were set to the factory suggested 7 clicks from full soft, and I must say for normal street use they were a bit firm and for the track they were a bit soft. Going to try 4 clicks street and 9 clicks for the track. Obviously those are just starting numbers and can be adjusted somewhat easily for the use case. On the street the RS4 are quite loud no surprise there, 200tw life. Also not as unbearable like the TRD catback with RE71 ripping down the 401 to TMP... talk about noise!

I did data log the second session, but haven't reviewed the logs or even looked at my times yet. I could tell there was a lot more speed being maintained in the second half of the track due to not rolling over on the tires.

Overall, quite pleased with how the car performed. I do need to address the idle as Perrin calls for in their installation instructions, as the idle NVH is quite aggressive especially if you're trying to talk to someone.
