Sunday Audi Quattro Challenge was a hit also
It was super fun as the person from Saturday said. The 125 paticipants were divided into 4 groups for the four events: Hot laps, autocross, wet skid pad, and accident avoidance (lane change/braking) All but hot laps were in our own cars.
Most fun was the hot laps. We each drove one of the various stock Audi's(A4 3.0, S8, Avant, A6 4.7) with the instructors. But our eyes were really opened when the instructors took the wheel and raced each other with us in the cars after our runs. These guys are F1 drivers and really showed us what AUDI can do with the stock versions.
After the hot laps was a short autocross competition in our own cars. I'm very happy to report that the 2002 A4 brought in the best time of the day (my 1.8t
). And against S4's, A4 3.0's, et al).
The other events were fun and similar to the Audi driving experience course. All very cool and FREE! Check it out when it comes to your area.

Re: tell us more what the F1 drives did with stock Audi's
Well, that's what they said anyway. But, for instance, we all felt like we were in a race in that they were charging and passing each other within inches at all the corners and running full out. About 8 cars per group. One driver said any faster and he would have smoked the stock brakes. He said this represented about 80% of its available performance. They were all alot better drivers than us. Audi IS racing!
