[urq] UPG 2005 Events

[Brandon Rogers]

Hey Sean-

I probably shouldn't speak too loud about thi sstuff right now as I don't
know what my participation level will be next year seing as how my wife and
I will have our first child in March, BUT, here a re my thoughts....

I'd love to do Vegas.

I don't want to do stuff with other Audi people (sorry I'm an urq snob even
tho I own an A4)

As we talked about IN PC - anytime but summer in Vegas - man these cars were
cooking in SLC Saturday morning!

And I don't want to take anything away from Vegas, but I think the Virginia
City Hillclimb would be a _great_ venue for a UPG, personally.  From an
automotive perspective, at least. Not sure about the social....
