There is a good chance that the kit will be allowed in due to the 20vt mechanicals.

I would need to discuss it with the organisers first though.

edit I have emailed them the question.

At the moment, the torque steer would suggest I'd have to drive anti-clockwise...

You can't accuse me of not trying. I didn't even hit the fence, and I ended up pointing in the right direction... what's not to like?

Thats just brilliant. I knew you had done a 720 - I just thought it was all the one direction. bow bow

Makes perfect sense - after a 360 just do another one in the opposite direction and you'll be definitely pointing the right way again.

What did the Co-driver say?

I'm not sure, but I think I said it was quite interesting while it was going on.

I was just watching the scenery rotate. At the point when it switched direction my crashhat hit the B pillar quite hard.

Well looks like it's the 22/23rd June...

http://www.spaitalia.be/index.html

To be confirmed, but I'm sure they're just tidying things up.

So I won't be able to go frown That date should be good for everyone else. Fingers crossed on the weather.

Yes 22-23 June is the most likely date, as soon as I get formal confirmation I will let people know.

There are some changes in the organisation ongoing at the moment.

Been waiting to hear when its going to be as I've decided to take my 147 down there smile Ok, its not quite a Coupe but the preparations have already begun!

Was wondering if I'd be welcome to tag along with the Coupe lot (seeing as I've met some of you already) and take cheap seats somewhere at the back? smile

I might be up for coming along - although those dates could clash with my holiday.

Anyone going fancy a fat muscular passenger? Willing to help towards petrol/beer.

NB: I'd love to take the RS6, but I fear they may not approve of an audi at the Italian car show. Plus at 800 miles round trip it would cost £250 in petrol alone laugh
