The Tease Of The Audi Sportscar Experience

by Andy McNamara on Oct 26, 2009 at 10:34 AM

Something you may or may not know about me, but I love automobiles. I'm always looking for an excuse to get a faster more agile one, and even after I upgrade it just feeds my desire for newer, more ridiculous cars.

My current want (which, by the way, will probably never happen unless I win some kind of Lottery) is the Audi R8 5.2.

I currently have an Audi and absolutely love the car (I won't bore you with the model, but let's just say it's pretty fast).

The result is that Audi now has me on their mailing lists and I constantly get mail inviting me out to the Audi Sportscar Experience.

I want to do this...bad.

Number one, I think the Infineon Raceway is quite amazing, but number two is that I would do just about anything to get out there and drive the R8.

If you have never checked out the experience listing, here is the link.

You can do like I do: drool over the video, cry at 2k to 4k price tag, and then just play Forza 3 to get your fix. Though, while I love video games, no game can ever matched the feeling of throwing real automobiles into a corner at mach speeds. Nothing gets the juices going quite like flying through a corner with the car and the driver on the edge.
