1st prize – Anointed the winner!

2nd prize – Recognition as first of the losers!

During the day there will be an aerial photograph and possibly glider flights. There will also be a talented photographer in attendance who may be coerced into photographing your car.

Tony: At some point there will be some movement of cars required to take some 'formation' photo's for the event. It is my intention that we will be providing an article for inclusion in a future edition of Audi Driver magazine
