Popped in for the 2hr session on Thursday while over there for WRC and F1 and spotted this UK RS4.
If the owner is on here I'd be happy to send them the original uncensored pic
Went in convoy with B7 RS4 owning friend who popped his 'ring cherry and also hit an indicated 170mph on the derestricted E42 from Prum towards Trier with little effort at 6pm on Saturday. There are 2 good opportunites (straights) just after autobahn starts heading south east into Germany and very little traffic so no need for 4am starts.
BTW Rallye Deutschland was great - easy to get close to the action, relatively cheap, spectacular stage locations, base city Trier is a destination in its own right, you can even convoy with the WRC cars on the public roads.
Apart from qualifying and the sheer noise of the things, IMHO the F1 was very disappointing and that was at Spa, supposedly the best circuit there is. £275 for an uncovered grandstand seat that's wet when you get to it if its rained, big queues for the 70c toilets and squalor and bigger queues in the free ones, £5 for small portion of chips and a procession behind Vettel virtually from start to finish. Best bit were the anti-Shell Greenpeace protesters in 2 microlights, police chopper came up to guide them away unsuccessfully!

Nice, I did wonder what the booing was , was this caused the the GP Protesters?

Didn't know about the booing (I was flying past Brussels about then) but I wouldn't be surprised if it was the protesters.

I love the pic of the girl hanging over the podium and the security guy there wife a knife to her rope... A girl falling and splatting on the podium, I'm sure, would've been worse publicity than the protest, no ?

That's just typical of what's in store when the glossy facade Bernie puts up is challenged, what was the chopper going to do to the microlight? Cut it's strings?!
There's a lot of money at stake for the poor rural area that is the Ardennes so there is a lot of security to prevent anything that could make Bernie get the tippex out for 2014

My favorite bit was how they had built a massive hospitality stand at the top of Eau Rouge and diverted the footpath up a dusty bank which even with walking boots on was lethal.
