Looks like you all had a great time, pics are superb.

I planned on making it down today but we all know what happens when you make plans!

Look forward to the next meet.

Glad everyone had a good time - wish I could've got there....

Was in Swindon for Sunday and ended up wasting half a tank of v-power getting there and back for it to pee down most of the day, when I was racing my rc nitro buggy - went home early when I broke it good and proper and ended up stuck in traffic jams on the M4, going through Bracknell and on the M25

Hi Guys,

Just to echo the sentiments of other good ole boys here, A HUGE THANK YOU to the organisers, and also to the last men standing when I finally caught up with you in the bar at Stoneleigh.

As I attempted to explain I had come directly from work, so sorry for any embarrassment caused to others to be seen drinking with a Sainsburys employee!!!LOL

Lovely to finally put some faces to names, and I sincerely hope to meet many more at Audis in the park, if not before.

I hope everyone got home safely, and enjoyed themselves in Warwickshire and neighbouring counties.

Best Regards to all,
Steve

As we have met in Warwickshire and are going to Ireland later this year, we are thinking about an Annual meet in BLACKPOOL AND THE LAKE DISTRICT next year, with a later trip to Sconny Botland, to be known as ExplorA8tion Scotland!

im looking into a remap asap as the difference was amazing driving the standard S8 and hoping into the remapped one made a hell of a difference so im sure it will be worth while on the A8 as well

Make it in the North Lakes if possible - much quieter roads!

That was a great meet in Warwickshire - my thanks to be added to the organisers - had a first class weekend!

Thanks Jim, we really appreciated you guys making the effort to get down to Warwickshire too, it was a fun meet! I think we will try and aim for a mix of blackpool and the north lakes then comments duly noted!
