I thought the car handled really well, it was obviously more chuckable (and scary) in the damp but I still got more adjustability than I thought I was going to get. It is big but it can still hustle, I loved it. I'm going to do it again when the new brakes are on.

Some pics.

Luke, I may have to find out from you a bit more info about the valved system as while I am not changing the way that the system actually works now emissions-wise, I don't mind having the option to make more noise when wanted for a laugh.

Found 2 more photos from last night, nowt interesting for those that weren't there but #care on that one tbh ;)

Those pics are great Jack. Wish there was some video cause we could hear darth before we could see you. The sound is just like thunder! :bowdown:

"I am Jack's Complete Lack of Surprise"
There are two videos posted a little bit further back in this thread. I think Cynthia grabbed some in-car video too. I'll catch up with her soon and see if I can extract it from her piephone.

Great to meet some of you, new and old faces. Bam, legendary exhaust system mate!
Amar, well done on getting in on the food, but shame we didn't see you @ Swindon. Was rather wrecked by that point though!

Did someone say drift?
Nope, I didn't catch it, but I did miss the barrier at least. :)

Looks and sounds like you had great fun at Swindon Audi and the hotel meal! Great to put a few names to faces, Footlong, Chunky and co etc. Gutted I didn't get chance to speak to Amar though, especially as I knew the previous owner of his RS6 who bought it from Fontain where I bought mine. I spoke to you Jack Dee but didn't realise you were the legend that is Bam. Luke isn't it? Your RS6 sounds epic. We were trying to work out if you were lifting off at strategic locations for any sound guns. Nice line of RS6s when I arrived at the club stand - my V8 S4 was rather inadequate - you know you are in the company of greatness when you rock up and have the slowest car there!

The B6 S4 is a great car Ian, I loved mine and might have been tempted to keep it if there were more charger options at the time. It was nice to meet you too. Gutted I didn't meet more of the owners there but we all seemed to miss each other.

Perhaps if this happens next year, we can get a spot that isn't out in the bleachers? I wouldn't mind paying a few pennies towards securing a better spot, if it even works that way? If we were more in the mix, we may not all get so fractured.

Hi Ian, sorry I missed you. Your S4 looked great, and I'm sure we will catch up soon. Did you see my plus? I've just remembered that it is the RS246 Christmas bash on the 29th(?), anyone planning on attending that?

I thought the reason we had that spot we did was because we were late deciding whether RS246 were attending the event or not. I think we'll be lucky just to get a spot next year.

I'm in Scotland on the 29th. As for the spot, I think the more you pay/ further you bend forward the better the spot. As AC/DC say, Money Talks.
