Did all my early driving on a 10.5 in a B4, then in my X6 when I changed over as well, all on smallish indoor tracks...didn't have the guts on the straights, but they are only short and the drivability on the infield made up for it...was never too far off the pace and often kept faster motors honest.

Although I did then change up to an 8.5 to add that grrrr and finally now a 7.5 (I've been doing some outdoors where the 10.5 seemed just tooo slow)...infield is more tricky to drive now and my throttle control is being tested/developed, but I can keep up on the straights where I was lacking before.

Def made for tidy driving, easier to drive lines, consistent lap times, but just missed the outright pace at times...great to learn on for me, and useful on smaller tracks.
