Is it worth doing a track day in an Audi S4 B8.5 Avant?
Discussion
I recently did the PalmerSport full day experience at Bedford Autodrome and have raced some arrive and drive D-Max and 2 stroke karts on and off for a few years at the usual venues. I have a day booked at the Caterham drift lake at Donington in December but was wondering if it’s worth taking my S4 to a track day and having some fun?
Bedford seems like the safest place to go for a novice but would it be necessary to change the brake fluid and pads before attending? The car is fairly new to me and has brand new P Zeros all round.
Please tell me if you think it’s stupid taking the family estate to a track day!

Thanks for the feedback guys, some pretty consistent advice re braking.
theboyfold, did you change your brake fluid in your S4 to help? If so, how does this work with general road driving?
Obviously not hugely keen to void my Audi warranty by changing things but Brands is closer if I could get away with driving a standard car later in December - hopefully it rains!
