X Post from Allroad forum - About the guy who was told to stop his '06 RS4 test drive...
When I was pulling up to the valet to get out of the RS4 test drive I asked the Audi dude if he had to tell anyone to stop the test drive because of irresponsible behavior. He said no, but he did just tell a guy to get out and HE would drive back. He described this: Guy gets in. Wife gets in back seat. He's the passenger. Guy pulls the car away from the event and shifts into 2nd. Guy doesn't know how to drive a stick and does the HeRkY sHeRkY on the clutch until the RS4 stalls. It happened one more time and the Audi dude said, sorry. Don't restart the car I'll drive it back for you. You could make an Audi commercial out of that. After the Audi dude drives your car back have it appear like it was a REALLY bad dream, wake up, then see your RS4 in the driveway and breathe a sigh of relief.
Cheers, Michael

I was only asked to stop revving the engine...
I was at the Chicago event and they only give you 15 seconds as a passenger. But they had a car on display for people to sit in. I'm not sure if I was allowed... but I started it up and after a minute or so of idling, I started revving it up a little. The Audi rep came over and told me to stop. We argued politely about engine temperate being cold, etc and we compromised to revving it only to 3-4k. I should have just started driving it... what's the worst they could have done to me
