Default Greetings from Germany!

Just waiting at the airport here to catch the flight home, so I thought I'd post a few pictures for you guys. First, let me say, the Audi Driving Expereience is awesome. This course was in Seefeld, Austria and involved 2 days of instruction from former rally drivers. The vehicles used were A8 4.2 (short wheel base) and A4 3.0 S-line Quattros. Enough talk, picture time:

At the Audi home base, a brand new A8 W12:

Currently under special exhibition at the Audi Museum Mobile, the history of Lamborgini. Here is the newest addition to the family:

Just down the road at MTM, a 605hp RS4!:

A short wheel base A8 4.2 at the track:

The Simpsons, a truely international comedy, in the A8 MMI display:

And finally, a rare sight, a Porsche GT3RS straight from the factory:

One of the best parts was after the last day of driving, one of the instructors took a small group of us over to a carting track. However, this was an outdoor, Ice track. I froze my fingers off, but karting on Ice is an awesome expereience.

One last surpise, Walter Rohrl showed up to our dinner on the last night. He also took everyone out in an A4 on an Ice track. That was an expereince for sure, 120kph sideways, 360 spins all with just normal snow tires.

That completes the photos for now, I've got a whole lot more if anyone is interested including some old Auto Union racers. I'll see you guys at Steamboat!

Default Nope, the Bimoto and S1 are touring car shows right now

However, got to see a real RS2, Sport Quattro Coupe and a couple of wicked customer cars.
