This is the one event that you do not want to miss out on! Don't believe me? Ask anyone that has been on this weekend trip with us. This is a driving experience you do not want to miss!!! ,This will be a technical and spirited circuit through the famed Twisted sisters in Hill country plus a couple more gorgeous roads. If you want to have a great day of exhilarating driving through beautiful scenery and make new friends within the Audi community, this is the event you must make plans for. We will stop for pictures, videos, food and gas along the way. We have made hotel arrangements at the Austin Marriott South for a group rate (link is below, under hotel info). Your choice of Friday night, Saturday night or both. You can always share with another member, but we will leave that to you to coordinate. There will be a good-sized group heading to Austin on Friday night and we will have a group leaving Houston early Saturday morning to meet at the Hotel as well. We will have Audi enthusiasts from other cities joining us too. Just like everything we do, this is a family friendly event so please feel free to bring your significant other and kids too. After the drive the hotel will hold a special reception for us with drink and appetizer specials. Let’s make version Quattro.0 the best yet. Please see below for more details. Any questions, please send me a message or email at [email protected].
