Default Great GTG for the Seattle group

Sorry to those who were not contacted and we missed those who were unable to attend. Hopefully with better planning, weather, and more owners, I can add more people to the next one.

We would have had about one of every color if the original 7 came, but was still great. In attendance, we had (Left to Right)

mellow_sparky, rktskicar, NWS4Guy, BrandonB, and PsYkHoTiK



Another shot/angle:



We also had Tifosi come as well with his very pristine Brilliant Red S5 Cab (has our engine in it), but he declined to "ruin" as he put it, the S4 lineup:



Missing due to oversights on my part were:

Seattle Steve (Ibis)
WAZZU_STU (Deep Sea Blue)
ShadowJet (Meteor Gray)

New for next time we will add:
Blue_Sky (Ibis)


We lack a Phantom and Brilliant, maybe next time?

At any rate the next GTG I am aware of (and not planning) is a VW/Audi cruise to Port Townsend by way of the Tacoma Narrows bridge, in support of NW Harvest food bank, sponsored by Achtuning! It will take place on March 6th, so you have about a month to plan accordingly!

NWSGuy, let me know about the next meet...I'm south of Tacoma, but the drive to Seattle is easy. My baby is Brilliant Black, so you'd only need a phantom.

Shoot me a PM with a good email to tag you with and I'll add you to the gang!

Oh and I carry my VCDS and laptop so I am able (and was for Brandon and PsY) to make changes at GTG's. Brandon's car had a dealer wipe of the changes I did months back due to an MMI update and reflash, then they both wanted the newly found change to show what gear DSG is in when in D or S.

Looks like great fun and awesome to see that you have nearly all the colors up there! Now time to find some of the owners of some of the Audi exclusive colors?

With the pics of all the colors lined up, forum members wondering what the various colors look like and wondering what they should get can see them all in one photo! =)

(now... where are all the SoCal people...?)

As the days get longer here (and we have some really spectacular days in late summer when you have 100+ miles of visibility) we can do some really nice shoots for color comparisons.

Well.......I might be able to help with that one. Should be this week depending on my work and SA's hours but placing an order for Sepang Blue.

Must of gone between Ibis and Sepang about 50 times

Don't want to sidetrack the thread. Sounds like the Port Townsend run will be a great time.

Yup, thanks for getting us together quickly to meet (and thanks for the VCDS mods) NWS4GUY!

We should also see about doing lunch sometime too (for those working nearby)!

It was a great pleasure meeting other "V6T" owners (to include Tifosi... ). Hopefully we can see more in the next GTG!

Seapang is vastly superior to Ibis (IMO). NO contest there. If I had it to do over again I would get Sepang.


Also, for those in the Seattle area...

I know PsY and I already bought a 4 hour session for $325!
