2010 Lake Barryessa Poker Rally - August 28th, 2010

We're offering a fun day of driving, exploring, and camaraderie with fellow Audi drivers on a fun drive through the wine growing regions of Solano and Napa counties.  Drivers and their navigators will follow simple rally instructions that guide them along scenic and challenging roads of the Suisun Valley, lower Lake Berryessa, and the eastern Napa Valley.  The day promises fun, camaraderie, and opportunity to learn more about making our cars a bit more competent and special. 

The rules

Rally teams will collect playing cards along the way from designated locals and answer questions from their observations along the route. The team that is able to make the best poker hand and provide the best answers to the questions, is the winner.  Trophies will be awarded to the driver/navigator teams who place 1st, 2nd and 3rd.  Each car must have a driver and a navigator.  Teams without a co-driver/navigator will not be allowed.

Food

Lunch will be served along the way.

The route:

The start: Big O Tires, Benecia, CA.   (415 Military East, Benicia, CA 94510).  We'll be providing coffee, and breakfast pastries, and from 7AM - 8AM, you'll receive a tour of Big O's fantastic new facility in Benecia.  Big O will also perform a quick tech inspection of the cars.  They'll be checking our tire pressure and they will also check that all wheels are torque to the proper setting.

The end: The Rally will end in Calistoga, CA at approximately 3:00 PM.  At this time, the teams will be scored, trophies will be awarded and we enjoy interesting conversation with our fellow Audi enthusiasts. 

Big O Tires

The VIP Performance Group of Big O stores provide more than just tires from premium manufactures of Pirelli/Michelin/Yokohama, and quality wheels from HRE/BBS/Advan Racing/Enkie. Their well trained technicians can also install quality brakes from Hawk, Stoptech, Powerslot and others, Borla exhaust systems and performance suspension systems from Eibach.  In addition they can do high tech performance enhancing alignment for the track enthusiast using equipment that many dealers do not own. 

Big O is a major sponsor of the club, and provides considerable tire tech support at all of our track events.  This will be an opportunity to see what they can do for us by showing the type of services they have to offer and an opportunity to sign up for their VIP program discount if you have not already done so.
