hmm, we are talking about two different kinds of sport driving, it's true. The Autobahn is fun, but I think of it as a way to get from here to there. Sport driving is a different game, trying to push the car to it's limits in braking and cornering (and accelerating) on a race track. But I don't think I'm being very clear about that distinction, I realize.

Nah - I was being tongue-in-cheek there. As I say, I've never been on a track before, so I really don't know. But driving on the Autobahn certainly *felt* the closest to sport driving I've ever experienced.
