Steve Q Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Sunday 13th August marked the 9th Audis in the park event as well as a new location. Deenes Park. However, before the show we met at the Chequered Flag Inn in Corby from 8am which allowed us to get to know each other as well as allowing us to travel to the show in convoy. And gave me a good opportunity to thank members for coming including handing out free t-shirts and stickers. We arrived at Deenes Park just after 9am and the surrounding roads were already jammed packed with Audis. On entering the grounds to the park we had to queue in multiple lines before getting into the show ground. I don't think iv ever seen so many Audis in one place! Audis had come from all over, including from Germany, France and the Netherlands to name but a few. On entering the ground we managed to get a pitch next to the dirt track. This allowed us to see all the other cars enter the show and was almost like a preview for the days events. It was nice to see our stand as we at least 12 cars on display! After the Audis had entered the show we all went to have a look at the cars on display. It was plainly obvious why this is one of the biggest Audi shows as nearly every Audi club was in attendance. And the cars ranged from a 1970s audi 100 through to the brand new Audi rs5. The biggest display was by the Audi TT clubs. Not to mention that the police turned up with 2 Audi police cars! Besides the cars and clubs there was a small selection of trade stands. Selling everything from cleaning products through to Audi fidget spinners! As well as hot and cold and obviously beer! Whilst at the show our club did get interest from other Audi owners who wished to join. Two of which came and parked there cars on our stand. This included a yellow 1982 Audi 80 (yellow) and a 1991 Audi 80 (red). By 3pm cars were leaving the show and this gave us a chance to watch the procession of Audis leaving. This allowed us to see cars that we had missed during the day. As a club we stayed until we were asked to leave which was around 5pm. The time had gone so fast! But this was down to chatting amongst ourselves. Overall the event was great and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and will look forward to attending the show next year for its 10th anniversary. Thanks for reading :) cheers steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
