We drove over to the Speedway from the Italian Auto Club at the Bootlegger to witness the Audi R8 Introduction at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Audi Marketing Director Frank Marschall offered high speed runs to Gary Shaw, Jeff Wenger, Chris Tromba, and Laura Babb who joined us on her Ducati. Setting us up with rides on the inner track was very generous of them as we were not scheduled in advance for the event. The R8s are very quick, and they look great - beautiful inside and out! Later we went downtown to the strip for the Soul Festival on Fremont Street and to see the waterslide at the Golden Nugget that goes through the shark tank. |
