Audi Club Current River Float Trip
Saturday May 10th
7:00 am
Leaves from: Steak 'n Shake - 76 S Highway Dr, Valley Park
Celebrate Mothers Day weekend and enjoy a day of canoeing on the beautiful Current River with your Audi friends.
We will leave from Steak 'n Shake at the intersection of I-44 & Hwy 141 promptly at 7:00 AM for a 3-hour drive through Salem to Akers, MO. Our 10 mile float from Akers Ferry to Pulltite will take several hours but should be an easy float due to fast-moving water. The Current River is part of the magnificent Ozark National Scenic Riverways and remains almost as wild and natural as the day Indians lightly trod the Ozark trails.
We have arranged for a special 30% discount rate of $32.20 per canoe for Audi Club members.
Camping is available at National Park Services Pultite Campground, For more information and to reserve your campsite, visit http://www.recreation.gov/campsiteSearch.do. If there is enough interest, we can also drive down together on Friday night. Just let Jerry know if you are planning to camp.
RSVP to Jerry Hogan at jerry.hogan@stlaudiclub.com or (314) 878-2253
We Need a Rough Head Count ASAP - If you think you might like to come, contact Jerry ASAP

ABT Tunes Audi RS6 to 730 hp for Geneva
German tuner ABT Sportsline is bringing its modified Audi RS6-R Avant to the Geneva motor show. The limited-edition, 730-hp station wagon will be produced in a run of just 25.
“Mind you, the R stands for 'racy,' not for 'rough' or 'rude,'” says CEO Hans-Jürgen Abt. “As with the normal Audi RS6, ours also provides the utmost comfort, sumptuousness and usefulness, limited to 25 cars worldwide.”
The basic RS6 makes 560 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque from its twin-turbocharged V8. To top that, ABT had quite a task on its hands. Well, technically they just installed ABT's engine control unit with special software and a stainless steel exhaust including a y-pipe and an upgraded catalytic converter.
