[s-cars] 2007 WOT - A first step in the N.E. Winter audiOcy Tour

[Vincent Frégeac]

Hi NEers,

 

It started with Paul posting philosophical thoughts about Audiocy, then Taka
pushing the N.E. border a bit further North, then me adding a name to all
this: Winter audiOcy Tour, aka 2007 WOT, and looking for a snow or ice
covered race track where we can express our full potential of JNRing.

 

After some (to say the less) procrastination, here it is:

-          A 2.5km packed snow/ice covered race track with low soft banks
(for now).

-          Time trials so we all bring our car back home.

-          A club house to keep you warm

-          1:15 North of Montreal

-          15-30min East of Mont Tremblant

There is two weekend dates still available in March: March 4th and March
11th (both Sundays)

If you want to see what the track looks like, it’s the track #1 here:

By the way, Audi Canada organized its own Winter Driving School on the exact
same track last month.

 

The cost will be 150-270USD/car (taxes included) depending the number of
cars, with the track open just for us from 10:00 to 16:00, plus 8.50 USD
insurance per pilot and copilot. DOT helmet required for pilot and copilot
(bike or car helmet). Winter tires or studded tires strongly recommended,
but hopelessly, super-studded tires not allowed.

 

I would need a minimum of 12 participants to make it reasonably affordable,
max 20-25, so we can count on 90 to 180min track time per car if we go with
the max of 6 cars on the track at the same time, which seems very reasonable
with a 2.5km track.

 

And we can also organize some JNRing on skis, on snowmobiles, in spas or in
fine restaurants for the Saturday. Possibilities are quite endless in the
area.

 

First step first, I need at least 12 people interested on one of these two
dates. If you’re interested, email me or post to the list with one of the
two dates or both. As soon as I reach 12 people on either date, I will
reconfirm track availability with Mecaglisse, fire up Paypal and reserve the
track.

 

Then we’ll see what kind of activities we can organize in the area for
Audiocyproof wives, little future audinuts and other people that would want
to come with you.

something may happen F.

 

P.S.: If someone could crosspost the Audi20V list, I would appreciate. I was
planning to, and then realized that I withdraw from the list when the 90Q20V
left me, R.I.P.

P.S.bis: Don, please spread the word in the Laurentian Audi Mafia.

P.S.ter: Paul, now that you pushed me into this, you’d better bring the
AlumaBeast or the twelve wheels 4KQ
