  1. Pics from today's Bull Run. And of course, Audi break in ends as I drive into the parking lot.
  2. Viper Green is an exclusive paint option along with a bright yellow and one other crazy color. There are very few out there.
  3. Some from Audi HQ
  4. Others
  5. VAG Cars
  6. Yep
  7. I will get the real pictures tonight after I give it a detail and can find a more picturesque location.
  8. Damn, Grahame is a true expert. I will have to think up some kind of prize for your amazing abilities Grahame. Would need new lugs for spacers, but I think it is mostly strange shadows you are seeing as the tires are pretty much flush now. 10mm would have them outside of the body, not a look I am going for.
  9. Let's see if Grahame's brilliant deductive powers can see the difference between this before and after. Before After
  10. Yeah, I did that and it works fine. I am just sick of it and have to go to a board meeting so I stopped. I also want to get some locks and possible better looking lugs than the stock Audi ones so NTB will handle that for me.
  11. Brent will pay!!! How is this for outstandingly overcomplicated for getting the wheels on: Step One - Drive car to train station to take the train two stops to the Hertz store, because they just moved and do not have home pick up yet. Pick up extended cab Chevy pickup I got with points. Step Two - Drive truck to my house to load up tires/wheels and deliver them to a NTB I found in the neighborhood. Step Three - Take truck to garage where car is and exchange so I can bring the car to the NTB for the work. Step Four - Take car home when done and get bike to ride back to train garage. Step Five - Throw bike in the back of the truck and head to NTB to get winter wheels and bring them to my house. Step Six - wake up Saturday morning to return truck and either train or Uber home to get my car so I can head out to AoA HQ for a luncheon and open house.
  12. I have filed a claim with corporate, Firestone, and am supposed to hear back in 3-5 days from my specialist. HRE will repowder coat the set for $500.
  13. Looks like the car is just low enough now that the low profile jack and adapter will not actually fit under the car. I am going to stab Brent when I see him for eating biscuits.
  14. Motherfucker. Took one wheel to a Firestone in the neighborhood to rebalance the wheel and pick it up to find scrapes all the way around the lip. They are saying it was like that when I brought it. I am very close to killing the whole shitty shop.
  15. There is also VAG Fair in Dan's home town coming up in August for the VAG people. http://www.vagfair.com/york/
  16. Planning to take a road trip down to the Tudor series race at VIR. Anyone up for a HC race gathering? http://www.imsa.com/races/virginia-international-raceway
  17. Remind me to kick you in the nuts next time I see you Brent.
  18. Of course, I get to the last wheel and find the silver balance tabs stuck to the cardboard protector and no longer where they belong on the wheel. I guess I am going to have to find a shop to figure out where they go.
  19. As I am apparently the very last stop on the UPS driver's route. Phase 2 has been delayed. Just going to seal and wax them tonight. Also need to figure out if the Audi lug nuts work on these as they come with nothing new.
  20. Good to know Grahame is so observant.
  21. Phase One of today's Audi upgrades is complete. Before After Can anyone spot the difference...not the stupid Quattro stickers.
  22. I hear you. I actually had to unvent my sunroof because those buzzy little BRZs were all round me.
  23. Our Sunday one is typically pretty laid back and not super high end, but it is still fun. I left yesterday in a whole train of super noisy japanese cars, Acura NSX, Skyline R32, about a dozen Suburu BRZs, a couple of WRX STis. Drove me crazy as they were buzzing so loudly but not moving the whole way down the road as they wanted everyone to see them.
