Phil, I can speak to people in Audi if you wanted to host in the Audi UK courtyard and see if they would open the showroom for refreshments. Let me know

There is an Open Pit lane at Brands on Sunday 11th December, £139. http://www.trackdays.co.uk/tracks/brands_hatch.htm

Sunday would be better as most could attend. However may be busy with other cars.

Only trouble is, its not central and is unfair to the northern brethren.

Good price for the gp circuit.
Wish brands would sort the paddock tunnel - getting the vxr8 was tricky as hell (no front parking sensors) however the 211 was worse given the crappy close range visibility.

Indy circuit great for track cars as may only be a couple corners but what great corners they are. Don't appreciate the blind unsighted downhill turn 1 from video...
However Indy not as much fun for bigger cars like rs. My only other bitch would be that being an old track run off is lited. Couple places where if you get it wrong then it's going to be expensive.

Brands could be a way to far south, but why limit ourselves to one event ;). It would certainly be quite apt as Audi provided Brands to us for a day back in the early days of the B5 RS4 and we had a very good turn out (Yes, the one where I ended up in the kitty litter!!)

DK - You've got my number. See what you can find out and we can go from there. I may be able to pull some strings from my side too in the next few months.

Brands for me too, would make sense to split the meets.

I thought all you up there do is run about shouting 'frrreeeddddom' whilst painted like smurfs ;)

Tis a fair point - splitting does make sense.

Sitting in a courtyard in Milton Keynes doesn't do it for me. IMHO RSs are meant to be seen AND heard doing their thing, not just looked at as a static exhibit.
