At long last I will be able to give the mrs her mini back, as I pick up the RS6+ on saturday. I'll be at TOTB on Sunday if anyone wants to go for a spin!

audi rs6+ is a 480bhp estate on 52 for the uk!

Ten Of The Best is a competition held at Elvington each year where all the fast modified cars (some vipers of here go) an settle scores. IIRC there are 3 disciplins you have to complete and you are scored on this:

top speed over 1.25 miles of run way
drag over 1/4 mile
and timed round a twisty handling circuit.

There are a few thousand spectators!

Glad to hear you have the Audi Jon. How does it compare to the RS4 you had?

Hopefully will get the chance to chat tomorrow at Elvington.

Best Regards


Martyn.

It's a completely different animal to the rs4. It's not as raw, but I do now know how Han Solo felt when he went in to hyper drive or whatever it was in star wars.
