Audi Tradition Bringing Classic Audis to More Than 20 Shows in 2018

Audi Tradition is bringing some of its best classics to more than 20 events during 2018. They’ll be bringing out cars from the heritage collection to celebrate the birthday of August Horch and mark 50 years of the Audi 100.

The season starts with the Techno Classica show held in March in Essen. Audi is celebrating 50 years of the 100 at the show, with three special 100s on display alongside an Auto Union Type D and the Audi 200 quattro.

At the Schloss Dyck Classic Days in August, Audi Tradition will be showing luxury cars to honor the 150th birthday of August Horch. The display will feature Horch models from the 1920s and 1930s. At Sachsen Classic, Horch models will take the starting line.

At the 25th Goodwood Festival of Speed, Audi Tradition will be running an Auto Union Type C 16-cylinder racer from 1936. It will be headed up the Goodwood hill. In the German town of Daun, Audi will bring the Audi Sport quattro S1 that Walter Rohrl used to break records in the Pike’s Peak hill climb. An Audi 200 quattro TransAm racer will be at Hamburg’s Stadtpark-Revival event.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs.

PZM 73rd Rally Poland Kicks Off

And with rain expected on Friday, Ogier’s chances are even better. “If it’s a bit wet then I hope I can make some good times,” said Ogier earlier today. “The best would be some good rain during the night so it’s a damp surface and then not too bad weather during the day so specators can enjoy the show without being too wet.” If it is dry, though, speed is on ...
