Default Damn - Just missed the "Audi Test Drive" show on Speed Channel

Started @ 2 PM PT (30 min. show) - tuned into the final 2 minutes and watched 2 RS6s (Blue & Red) driving on some winding roads. Hopefully they'll repeat later in the week.

Default I have it on tape.

I'd be glad to send it to you. Frankly, I didn't think too much of the program (loved the cars, though). They spent an awful lot of time just showing the cars driving on a track. It played more like an infomercial than anything else. It certainly wasn't up to the quality level of other on-air road tests, e.g. MotorWeek. Just my opinion.

They chose to use .WMV format and WMP 9 codec which isn't cross-platform compatible
