Audi Driver's International - 8th October 2011

[jojo]

Taken from Audi Driver International 2011

Last year's Audi Driver International, at Castle Combe race circuit, was a spectacular success, with an all-time record attendance from club members, track cars and spectators!

The track was busy throughout the day*, with many traders giving demo drives and passenger rides and Audi UK was running a draw to win fast-lap passenger rides in an R8. The lunchtime parade for families with children was also well subscribed, joined by a convoy of Ur quattros celebrating their 30th anniversary this year, and the day ended with a grand parade around the circuit.

The Concours d'Elegance, sponsored by Dodo Juice, was won (yet again) by Andy Stevenson with his immaculate yellow TT Roadster.

The event then finished in style, at the Hilton hotel at Swindon, after a reception atSwindon Audi, with a gala dinner and presentation of the annual Audi Driver awards, including a guest appearance from racing driver Allan McNish, and finished with a disco sponsored by Custom-Code.

Just need to buy my ticket, glad you reminded me though I need to put my name down.

 

[jojo]

OK, just got off the phone with them, it's pay at the door only for tickets, unless you buy track sessions online, which includes the entry fee!

Sorry for all the confusion.

Two different kind of shows really, this is a trackday event, you are paying to be a spectator to watch cars go round the track, you could make it more entertaining by going out on track yourself! GTI Inters is more of a 'Scene' event, with the 1/4 miles as the spectators event, it has more traders and focuses on Show and Shine for many categories.

I enjoy both for different reasons personally.

Im going was a great day out last year,nice chilled day!

Who else wants to go on track that hasn't got in on the first ASN track session?

If that's you, get on the list for the second track session!

http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/major-...-session-@adi-limited-spaces.html#post1362369

If we can get 12 people on board, Jo can book us a second track session. 3 people on the list already, just another 9 people to get out on track and it'll happen!

Come on folks, if you've not been on track before it's a great way to see if it's for you, and push your car safely somewhere that's not going to get you a driving ban!

 

[jojo]

I have 7 days to arrange this guys, this means, I need full payment from everyone by the 17th Sept for it to work!

So sign up now if interested!

 

[16Klappe]

Right, the first ASN track session filled up pretty quick! So we have the opportunity to book another dedicated slot for ASN members if we can get 12 names and payment in 7 days. It is £35 for track time and this INCLUDES entry, which is cheaper than track time on the day (£45) without taking into account entry (£10). And you'll get to drive around on a track with your mates, not randomers.

The reason this list is going is because there was such demand for the original and people are missing out, at £35 for lap time AND entry itsa total bargain. So get your name on it now because there is a lot of interest and this is the last boat for the deal:thumbsup:

Remember, we need a full 12 for this to go ahead. And when it does, it'll be awesome.

To get your name on the list click the link below and add yourself on or PM me and I will update accordingly.

I'm doing both too mate, with my mate as the driver in the 2nd one! I shall go out last to save embarrassment!

 

[jojo]

Not ONE 8P is taking part in this, I don't even mind getting overtaken by one! Do they not trust their cars? lol

 

[Prawn]

I want to go out last, it'll be more fun picking my way through the field

Last combe session I did I went out first, and was lapping the tail end cars within 2 laps

You and I need to take care of Lou too don't forget! Then we'll peel off and I'll show you up in my far superior car on YOUR tires!

 

[Smokey_clark]

Noooo just realised this clashes with my sponsored cycle ride from bath to weymouth (why o why!)
Anyone got a track camera or something they could maybe film the ASN laps? That would be a laugh to see afterwards.
