This video captures a shakedown run of an Audi RS4 with recent Stage 3 modifications at Pheasant Wood Circuit in Marulan, NSW, on April 26, 2023. The driver aimed to achieve a sub-minute lap time on their first visit to this short, sharp track, ultimately setting a best lap of 58.82 seconds.

The track day featured an open pit lane, allowing for extensive testing, including launch control runs on the main straight. Despite the car performing well and responding positively to the changes, the intense track conditions led to the failure of the front brake pads and rotors, which disintegrated on the drive home after the session.

Special thanks to the team at Pheasant Wood for providing an excellent facility for the day.
