Hi ALL

After the fantastic turnout we had for Audi Driver International in 2006 i wish to let you know of the dates for this years event .......

We advertised this event 9 Months early last year and it would seem that that was a very wise decision as it gave people plenty of time to plan ahead .....

We are once again doing some forward planning to see how many people would be interested in attending this year's Audi Driver International event on Saturday October 13th

Once again it will be taking place at Castle Combe race circuit in Wiltshire.
Last year, we beat all expectations and we had very close too 30 A2s present : We're looking to better last year's record and maybe try and get nearer 50 cars ......

You've got 7 months notice. If you look at the Googlemap - Castle Combe is fairly well located to be reachable by most of our members. Those of you coming from further afield can usually find plenty of accomodation locally.

The A20C this year will be aiming to be the biggest and best club at this year's event........I Think a lot of people took notice of us last year and it would be fantastic if we could get a 50 car convoy together .We had some very favourable comments from non A2 members last year ...........


I Think all A20C members took something away with them last year
we all had a great day out so dont miss it this year .The convoy drive to Ben's local after the event was a fun as well , we could continue that idea as it was nice to go for a chat and a pint afterwards .........

Here are some of the suggestions we have had ,

- Mini-marquees, trestle tables and chairs/beanbags
- Games
- VAG-COM diagnostics check
- Merchandise sales
- A2 Photo gallery
- Cruise Control retro fitting (if Skipton is up for it ;) )
- (Any other mods)

It was also suggested that we could attend the Audi Driver International
Dinner and Awards ceremony at the Hilton Hotel in Swindon afterwards
and hopefully pick up the award for Best Club ........LOL :)

If you have any other ideas - post them here.

Let's see if we can beat our previous best attendance record!
This would also be a New Record for A2's Home or Abroad ......

I am quite up for this Carl and in fact was about to post that if any member attending the A2OC Summer Camp Social wanted, I could fit cruise there also and at a special price!

If we are to be in with a shout for best club, we need to be nominated (best get in touch with AD and find out the procedure), then it's up to you lot - our membership - to get voting! As we are a pretty keen bunch, it shouldn't be too hard to get some kind of recognition.

Ang and I have both expressed an interest in going to the dinner this year, so anyone who wants to join us would be most welcome (I think tables of 10 are common).

Cheers,

Mike
 
Mike will get in touch with AD as i have no idea how these
awards are decided , We have been invited to the awards the last 2 years
but as people are travelling long distance's ......
Was not sure if people would want to attend ,as they maybe wanted to get home .......
I think after the response we had last year i cant see any reason why we could not get a Table uptogether ........
 
Sent an email to Audi Driver over a week ago to ask how we go about
attending the awards and also we would like to be considered for best club award and Im still waiting for a reply ......

Looks like im going to have to chase them up
perhaps Audi would prefer if we did not attend LOL !!!:)
 
I Have finally had a reply back from ADi about the awards.......

We have to fill in a
Voting card which is usually put online in August and also it will be in the Audi Driver magazine. We just need to get members to fill it in before the closing date which is usually mid September.

Nearer the time i will put a new post up for this and see if we can get nominated for an award .....:)
 
Great stuff Carl - I see no reason why we shouldn't get something - in terms of an active forum and membership, I think we are at least the equal of the TTOC, who won awards last year.

Cheers,

Mike
 
BUMP
There maybe some new members that have not seen this Social event
which is generally are biggest event of the year so if you would like to
attend please see above for details .......
 
I've now registered my attendance!

Just noticed that it's the Saturday before the final round of the BTCC at Thruxton.. Hmm.. it may be worth me stopping over 'down south' then go on to Thruxton on the Sunday :)
 
I should be up for this! I know my dad would of wanted to go, and as I will be having his car in the next few days it looks like Hollyrescue's A2 will be living on in the Chown family!

Brilliant!

See you there Peter and I'm sure that your Dad will be there somewhere too.

Cheers,

Mike
 
It'd be great to see you again Peter. Castle Combe wouldn't be the same without a Chown.

Any competitions going on this year?
 
Hey guys, looking forward to it!

Not sure if i'm gonna compete yet, body is feeling a bit battered up, a couple of injuries and what with all thats gone on, i just feel like a break! And if i do have a break i can stuff my face at castle coombe!
 
Better get some extra in this year as you have been on rations the last 2 years will be good to see you there Peter ......;)
 
Rather than us all just rushing off at the end of the Castle Combe part of the day, I have proposed that we get a table at the award ceremony this year.

If we are nominated for an award, it'd be useful to be there should we win anything, but also, it gives us a chance to socialise in the warmth and also to spread the A2 message to the assembled high and mighty!

I'll set up a second attendance thingy on the calendar, so that those intending to stay for the dinner and awards can register.

Cheers,

Mike
