    A German thing, and a not so German thing

    Hey guys! So this past Saturday there was a GTG for TT-RS's. The event was hosted by AWE Tuning and was put together by Mike (sorry dont know his username). A few of us MKI guys and girl showed up and tagged along for just a day full of fun driving, seeing friends and making new ones. I'll let the pictures tell the rest






























    I'd like to give a big thanks to everyone who made this happen. I know all of us had a great time and would love to do this again soon!

    Great pics James! I especially love the last two -- of Chris & I blowing right by the turn that everyone else took (we have our wife/girlfriend to thank for missing that one ).

    I'll hopefully having a bunch of photos up shortly.

    It was AWE-some meeting everyone! (OK, bad AWE pun there)

    Haha I got a good laugh out of it. I made it to that corner just before you guys got there. I didn't have time to set up and that's why the first shots of you guys pulling out are blurry.

    Expenses in F1 have gone down since the 1960s because teams don't need an extra pit crew to help the driver carry around his balls when he is not in the car.

    Photos from Chris D - our chase car Mini driver! He'll be posting more pics as the week goes on - he's editing the rest - if they're anything like the ones he took of my car a few weeks back they should be amazing.

    Lots of GREAT shots - the memories of this meet will be forever etched!

    What a awesome meet - I really appreciate Michael going the extra yard and setting this all up. I had an absolute blast on the back roads and had some pulled BBQ the way that it should be had - i.e., with coleslaw on top. I got to hear and see that wonderful looking and sweet sounding AWE switch path exhaust; nice piece of functional art! And last, but not least, I got to meet the stars of the meet, the folks who I'd only know via screen names. It was a pleasure sharing our love of cars and getting together to support and share thoughts and ideas.

    I cannot wait until we can do this or something similar again. In the meantime, enjoy in excellent health!
