Driving an audi, and drifting it around mountain turns is a heck of a lot of fun. Just a nice bank of memories I have, so I have a soft spot for the a4's.

The bus stopping was the only reason Doug stopped so its still your fault. I think if it wasnt for you stopping Doug would've gotten hooked up for eluding.

The one that started it all, '83/4 A1 Sport. (note the rings across the lower door, factory roll cage and composite body panels
These cars destroyed records at Pike's Peak when they came to America and were banned from SCCA because it was TOO good. (even though it WAS a production car... in europe)

Gotta love an AWD, turboed, intercooled, fuel injected, I5.
It's probably as old as you, but it was REALLY fun to drive.
