<b>A Midsummer Audi Night's GTG</b>

<b>Date: August 8th
Time: 5:30PM to whenever
Location: Uno's, Bear Hill Road, Waltham, MA</b>
<b>Here are the attendees to-date. Anyone else???</b>

As we did last April and before, we are meeting at the Waltham Uno's on Bear Hill Road for some meeting and some eating. So far, pretty good response (see list below for an updated list of attendees). However, some of the usual suspects are missing, and just two weeks to go!!! <b>We'll have prizes for the "Best of Model" and "Best of Show" but we will also have a few door prizes open to all Audi-owner attendees.</b>

<b>Best of Model and Best of Show Contest</b>

Get your cars cleaned up and ready for another "Best of Model" contest like we had last time. Judging will be based on various criteria, but be assured that cleanliness is one of them! The model categories are:

Best A3
Best A4 (B5, B6, B7 will all be judged together)
Best S4 (B5, B6, B7 will all be judged together)
Best A6/S6/RS6/allroad
Best TT
Best A8
Best Old School
[Note: Winners from the last GTG are ineligible]

In order for your car to qualify for judging it <b>must</b> be at the GTG by 6:30pm as judging will close shortly there after.

Once we determine the 7 "Best of Model" cars we will have a vote (by show of hands or other method TBD) to determine the "Best of Show" winner. Prizes??? <a href="mailto:Phil@eastarsinc.com">Phil Yiu</a>, the Northeast distributor of Adams Polishes, has made a generous donation of some very nice detailing products for prizes (more info on those later). For other prizes, SmokinS4â„¢ has received two pair of wheel storage bags from <a href="http://www.rimandwheelworks.com/">Rim and Wheel Works</a> in Waltham, and I will talk to our friends at Bernardi to see if they are interested.

<b>I need volunteers to be judges. Please e-mail me at bostondriver@gmail.com if you are interested in being a judge. Of course, those that won last time would be great judges, since they are already ineligible...</b>

<b>Parking</b>

We'd like to keep all cars as far away from the restaurant as possible so we leave as many spaces as possible close to the restaurant for regular patrons. I know this has been said before, but...one space per car please.

A6/S6/RS6/allroad: Park against the rock wall closest to Bear Hill Road.
A3/TT/A8: Park against the rock wall closest to the highway.
A4 (B5, B6, B7): Park in the two rows immediately across from the A6/S6/RS6/allroad group.
S4 (B5, B6, B7): Park in the two rows immediately across from the A3, TT, A3 group.
Old School and the non-audi attendees: Park in the row of spaces nearest and parallel to the highway.

Here is the overhead shot of the parking diagram:
