RSunday in Switzerland

[MR USER]

This week end we had our first reunion of RS4 from Geneva and surrounding.

Webbah, Fab and met for the first time. We had the chances of testing different options and hearing the monstruos Milltek exaust of Webbah!!!

These are the fist few pics! I guess we will post more and perhaps a video...

Enjoy!!!

[Fab]

Very nice little trip indeed :incar: :revs:

I will also post my pics in the near future (and also switch to my summer wheels and tires as well next Wednesday....:jlol: ).

The vid will be definitely the best to be reported to the forum :king:

Once again very nice trip around. It is always great to meet with nice mates and nice RS4s. To be replicated soon :thumb:

Fab

P.S. The Miltek exhaust is just mind blowing. Really great sound very similar to the original sound note :MTM:

Sounds like a great trip guys. Makes me feel a bit nostalgic for Switzerland (I lived there on and off for 4 years - just came back to Australia late last year).

Where are you all from? I lived in Zurich and after a staying a year or so in Paris moved to Lausanne.

BTW - what sort of costs are in involved for a Miltek exhaust including installation? Just a ballpark because I'm thinking about it for mine.

Brad

[Fab]

We are all from the Geneva area and the Jura mountain offers very nice roads...

For the Miltek Webbah will answer you... I can simply repeat that the sound is :vgrumpy: :MTM: :wo:

You must have missed my post on the Milltek in Australia.... "the AUD$ price list is on page 6 - http://www.millteksport.com.au/price....pricelist.pdf (http://www.millteksport.com.au/prices/audi.milltek.retail.pricelist.pdf) . Do you think $5K (exclude installation?) is reasonable?"

Bonjour!

Is it ridiculously loud? I guess I don't want all eyes turned towards me if I'm just down the street to buy some groceries. I'm a bit worried that it will attract too much attention.

Also, does it operate off the sport button also? Thus being a little bit more subtle until you press it?

Brad

[Fab]

Well the standard exhaust note is already very very nice.... The miltek gives you this bad ass extra and goid around in town will of course put all eyes on you (it is even the case with the factory exhaust already...).

I personally prefers to stick on the standard.

I know Miltek offers both with and without valves.

Hi mate,

Yeah I saw the post, but how much to fit it? I guess these guys will be at the motor show so I might head there this weekend and find out more.

5k seems a fair slug, but it will give the car new legs after a year or two of ownership. I was thinking of using it to "refresh" my car after 18 months. Like anything, even an RS4 will get "same-ey" after driving it for a while.

There are far more hot V8s in Australia than CH, so I guess RS4s blend in (a little bit!) more here than there. Currently people only look when you have the right foot flat to the floor...

Hopefully I can experience one here live before making the choice.

[brad]

Your right there are more V10 and V12 in Geneva :love:

They must all stay in their garages as I never saw any on the roads! :)

Just kidding, its just that whereas in Europe young people drive "hot hatches" like GTIs etc with modified exhausts et al, in Australia we have "hot sedans", which are typically V8. Just a factor of culture and petrol prices...

As for cars in Geneva, I never saw so many Ferarris, lambos, maserratis (sp?), aston martins, porches etc. in one place. I had a Cayman S when I was there and I was almost embarassed to take it on the road. :blush:

It would be interesting to see a street racing video between stock avant and sedan and between standard and a milltek exhaust one.

[MR USER]

The swiss laws are very tight on speeding... I am not sure that doing a street race is a good idea. On the other hand we did a video to compare the sound and you have couple runs where we drive by.
the video will have the 3 cars. One sedan Chipped, one standard avant and one milltek avant... you will see!

To ge the video faster you should bribe Webbah!

[MR USER]

Fab how are the pics? are they any nice?

[Fab]

We did not race but it is definitely something I want to do next time.

The sedan that came is tuned (chip extra 20-30hp) so will be interesting to see the diff modded sedan vs stock avant :revs:

If we continue to meet on a regular basis we will bring on some interesting thinks hehe...

[MR USER]

I think it will be had to see the difference between tuned and not tuned. when the car in front was accelerating hard I would do the same and the gain was just marginal except. I was gaining a lot more from 6500+. On high revs till 8600 is seemed a lot faster than the other cars but it could be related to the different shifting point... more than the extra hp.

In Greece you go directly to the court,you loose the lisence for 6 months and plates and money and points etc..
So the system is as this:Someone goes front slowly 1 km and search for policemen,laser guns etc...If everything is ok phone to the other two and the race starts!!!

Dear Fab come to Greece with the car to make a video here!!!!!

[Fab]

Fab how are the pics? are they any nice?Well my pics are not the best on earth but not bad I will post them shortly.

In Greece is difficult or impossible to rent an RS4.There is not exist.Only Mercedes and ,911 carrera etc...

[Fab]

Yeah definitely Greece is not Audi and definitely not S or RS. Probalby because they don't need quattro that much. The only S4 I saw is the one of a client of mine. But he loves it a keeps it although he sold his M3 and got an M5 lately...

You are probably the only owner in Athens... What an exclusivity :thumb:

[RXBG]

nice. beautiful switzerland. wish i had been able to go for the car show this year.

[Webbah]

Hey guys! AWESOME day last Sunday. Was great to meet you both! I've been off site on business all day and away from the forums... (yeah I have to work to pay for the car and my other toys)... ;)

I'll post the pics shortly. The video will take me a little more time as I need to edit it and add some special effects and transitions. Hopefully I'll have time tomorrow or Wednesday at the latest.

Cheers,

Hey Brad,

In Switzerland I paid 3,600CHF in total. Had it done at Digit-Power. I'm changing to the Valved system in another week. It's the unit I wanted originally but they only had the un-valved system when I arrived. With the valved system you can go quiet (er) with the S button. It's a deeper growl than the stock with more V8 "burble". The video I will post should give you a good idea. We recorded some straight line drive by's with all 3 of our cars. Typically we blasted by in 3rd gear at about 6-7000RPM and shifted to 4th so we could capture different sounds and compare.

Would have loved to do this in a tunnel but we didn't have any around in the mountains. Guess that is an excuse for the next meet up? :hahahehe:

Yeah when I was there last week for the Vmax Aufhebung I asked Keller how come they installed the wrong one on your car, he said generally they only very seldom install the oval ones, I find that hard to believe though :eye:
I can't imagine having 2x2's on my RS6, and neither can I imagine having them if I'd own an RS4.

I can't imagine anyone wanting the 2x2's! Totally ruins the look of the car. With the Oval's no one can really even tell (until they hear the sound).

Really sucks that I have to take off another afternoon of work to drive back up there!

Just a delimiter..but they do chip tuning too.

[MR USER]

Webbah you should be working for a TV or something!!! You cut videos like a pro!!!
Unfortunately my hand is not too still but the sound got out right anyway!!!

As for the plate numbers... should have but could not be bothered! I just remove the pic instead!!!

[MR USER]

I love the comic interpretation!!!!

[MR USER]

LU should we count ou in for the rext RSunday? may be you wll lead the way to the nordschleife!!!

Absolutely count me in. Hell I'd lead you guys to Siberia if I need to, i was BORN to drive this car :0:

22.000kms since end of November and counting :dig::dig:

Honestly, I did that in a rush and didn't use the "real gear" in the studio. I used my home macbook pro laptop with iMovie HD and did that in about an hour. I knew you guys were anxious to see the clips so didn't want to wait.

Yes, you're hand was a bit shaky. Perhaps a little too much espresso eh italiano? :rotflmao:

Next time you must bring the camera mount for the car. I'll also bring the HD video camera and will do a proper video with us driving. :0:

Have a nice day guys,

Webbah

[Fab]

Webbah congratulations for this great vid :thumb: :thumb: Very good job :asian:

We will have to work on much more in the near future.... And get our friend LU-RS6 with us.

For your info guys I am getting my summer wheels tomorrow :D :D so no more jokes :lovl: .

I am the only one not having posted pics...will do so tonight I promess...

Have a nice day...

Ciao

I can take my headrest camera mount with me, no shaking whatsoever, here are 2 movies that have been made with this mount. Even bumps in the road at +290 km/h are no problem.

Yeah, very nice, but only at idle. You can't truly hear the Milltek until it is under load. In a tunnel is music for any petrol head!

[MR USER]

In a tunnel is music for any petrol head!

Even in the country side is music.... From behind when the whole sistem is warm... OOOOO MMMYYYY.

As i said on sunday... my stock exausts sounds like a fiat 500 compared to that!!!
It has thie racing mean mean mean note that just makes me want to get the whole sistem (without catalizers) and get some rosting done when downshifting!
I want flames and thunders!!!

Even if I get arrested after one hour it will be the best 60 minutes money could buy!!!

Thanks Webbah, its a fun video, but maybe I was tired when I looked at it, or the sound pickup of the video is not that good, or am just going deaf, but I couldn't really get a good feel for the difference in the exhaust notes.

I actually had to go back to the start of the film to see in the credits which car had the milltek fitted.

There is one point (I think its the first pass by the milltek car) when the car goes off into the distance (off camera) and you hear it downchange, and its like - cool! Apart from that I was struggling to pick it.

I guess there's no substitute for hearing it in person.

Hi Brad,

Very true, hearing it in person is a completely different experience. The full quality video I have sounds much better. Posting to YouTube degraded the quality some bit. The milltek has a much deeper growling sound. The stock sounds great as well, but with a higher pitch. I think the best video demonstration we could do would be in the tunnels around Geneva. Perhaps Fab, MR USER, and I can do this once I get the valved system installed at the end of next week. Another note, all exhausts get a bit louder as they break in. The Milltek seemed to come alive after 500Km or so. It also sounds better when the car is fully warmed up after about 20Km of driving.

Cheers,

Webbah

I'm driving to Courchevel this weekend for some snowboarding and hope my summer tires can cope on the roads at 1850 meters.

Ahh, the irony!

[Fab]

I can lend you my winter wheels :D :D :D :D

have fun !

[MR USER]

Black Rims... just got it... I will take more pics in sunlight!

[Fab]

personally not really convinced but let's see them in sunlight...

[LU-RS6]

MR USER that's sheer porno you got there mate, we need more pics!!

[Ruergard]

First, looks like you guys had an awesome day up there! All three cars lookin&#180; absolutely great! Great to see that guys from the board meet up and do things like that.

And then, and even better for us that didn't were there. ;) Great with the pics and the video, LOVE the sound with the Milltek exhaust. Gives that little extra! :love:

Don't understand how I could have missed this thread in the first place. :|

[Webbah]

Black Rims... just got it... I will take more pics in sunlight!

Wow, very different! I'd love to see it in person. Is this the official Italian mafia ride now? ;)

[MR USER]

I think it's abou time to organise another RSunday around here...

Whan should we book a suitable date??? any proposal?

[Fab]

not the coming w-e but from next one onwards I should be fine for a ride. Let's coordinate with webbah and potentially others like LU-RS6 to compare the 2 beasts...

[Webbah]

I can't the last weekend of this month as I will be in Munich for Oktoberfest. And yes, I am driving there to enjoy the autobahn! ;) Maybe in early October? Would be fun!

[MR USER]

Early october sounds good to me.... I would suggest the following...

Driving up the Grand St. Bernard... descending to Aosta where we could do skydiving (in case you are up for that!!!) or eat something to return either by motorway or if we are in the mood the ptit St. Bernard...

I suggest to extend to all people nearby or far away that would like to join and as a date I would propose Sunday the 14th of October!

Le us see if LU or Russian or any other in the neighbohood is up for that!!! and of course if others with other cars are up for the challenge...

[Webbah]

Excellent plan mate! And the 14th works for me. Not sure about the sky diving. I'd rather bash around in the car and check out Italian chicks in Aosta.... ;) This is a perfect trip to do before I change to my winter tires. Then again, Fab probably already has his on... HAHAHA!

You know guys, one dream trip of mine is to drive the Napoleon highway to the south of France from Switzerland. WE NEED TO DO THAT. We'll need a few days at least so a weekend would do. Keep it on the radar though ok? ;)

[MR USER]

Been there, done that!!! and yes i'm up for that again... it's such a demanding road! plenty of fun! It takes about 3.5 hours to get there from geneva... then about 2.5 to get to Nice using that road...

It's really worth the trip, the new rubber you need afterwards and the new pads!

Could be an alternative... but we need at least the whole WE... and i need to start saving for the fuel!!!

[MR USER]

By the way the N85 is no highway!!! is a narrow road next to some nice vertical drops!!!

[Webbah]

I posted a challenge on my blog to some buddies in Geneva. Let's see if they have the guts to join us... ;)

Should be fine for me as well but let me reconfim in the coming days. My beast needs a bit of fresh air :revs:

Also let me announce you that my wife is expecting twins for early 08. So I just signed for a ML. Will keep the RS of course

[LU-RS6]

Guys, wherever, whenever, I don't care if we're taking our rides to Indochina: I'm in anyway :applause:

Let's fix the time and meeting point and let's watch the sky a couple of days before :vgrumpy:

:dig:

[Webbah]

Perfect! I think we'll have enough adrenaline pumping through our veins already from driving. Pass on the sky diving... :brag:

[MR USER]

Ok... ok. Petrolheads don't like to fly... right? well well the drive will compensate the adrenaline for sure! I have another friend from germany that might join us and another one in Courmayeur... both of them with RS4s... let us see if we can have a nice run!

Webbah.. will Aston come with you?

[MR USER]

LU we were counting on you!!! it's good news you will be able to make it!

[LU-RS6]

Damn looks like I need to attract some RS6'ers to help me in the battle against the RS4 crew.

Help me out here fellow RS6 drivers!

[MR USER]

No need for that!!! it will be a friendly drive to cruise around some of the best roads europe can offer!!! but the more beasts are there the best it is!!! we can battle eachother over lunch!!!

[LU-RS6]

I hear ya, was only joking :harass:

Maybe we can get some South German RS cars on board, we'll see. I'm looking forward to it because I'm not too familiar with the region.

[MR USER]

You will love it LU it's really really nice!

And yes recruit some Deutsche UberRSmachine!!!!

[Webbah]

No way man... He'd be puking all over the back! ;)




Webbah.. will Aston come with you?

[RussianM3_dude]

I would probably come, maybe as far as Aosta, but no further as I would only really have one day. I already did skydiving in Vegas, so would probably pass this time.

[RussianM3_dude]

Ok... ok. Petrolheads don't like to fly... right? well well the drive will compensate the adrenaline for sure! I have another friend from germany that might join us and another one in Courmayeur... both of them with RS4s... let us see if we can have a nice run!

Webbah.. will Aston come with you?

I used to fly. Nothing special of course, just Cessnas. Was going to take aerobatic classes, but just didn't have the time or the energy for it.

[MR USER]

Russian... you can do the whole trip in one day!!! Easy...
Overall we are talking about 460 km... geneva to geneva via chamonix, martigny, col du g sain-bernard, aosta, petit st Bernard, albertville, annecy.

That is more or less 1.5 tanks of fuel and about 5 hours... drive in a mix of twisty mountain roads, motorways (170 km) and normal roads!

The jurney can allow us to split half way and head back to geneva (or else).

I think for a trip is a good one!

see if this works... itinerary (http://www.mappy.com/mappyme/route?data_id=618D6A48-1DE0-4AF0-8060-757BA30049CE)

[RussianM3_dude]

Sounds interesting, but I'd probably join up in Valais. I don't feel like going to Geneva and back for nothing.

[MR USER]

Tha is up to you!!! and i see no problem with that! I thought you were in geneva as well! that's all!

[Ti-Mike]

i would join the group, if:
1. i would be accepted as a R8 driver, but ex RS4B7 driver.
2. if the date suit's my schedule.

6 or 7 Oct would be nice

[MR USER]

Ti-Mike,
it would be fantastic if you could join us!!! after all we would have the same engine!!!!
You got a fantastic car.... I had the chance to play with with Audi on the nurburgring back in April and I really loved it!!!

We were thinking to do it on the week end after the one you mention... 13/14 of October...

Will that suit you?

You could join half way if you come through Italy or you can have some fun on the neufenen pass if you come through swiss roads to martigny...

[Ti-Mike]

As long as it's not raining , I just mounted a set of semi slicks on the R.
If there is no snow on the nufenen pass I will take thsi road.

[MR USER]

I've seen them on your tread... they look sexy!!!

[Juliencor]

Hello guys,

would you fancy a cab with you? I could come on the 14th.

The picture would be nice, 4 doors, 5 doors, cab and R8 ;-)

Julien

[MR USER]

What do you mean exactly by cab?

[Juliencor]

RS4 convertible, I don't drive a taxi :)

[LU-RS6]

:applause::applause::bow::bow:



Need I say more?

[RS4B7]

Where you want to do it , Genova ?I need to be in Fribourg on the 15 , so i could combine it.

[RussianM3_dude]

Just found out that 13-14-15 is not good for me. Family time/vacation. However I am game the week-end before or after.

[MR USER]

Not Genova (in italy) but Geneva (switzerland!!!)

[MR USER]

OF course you can come with your taxi!!!

THre is a guy that drives around geneva with a black cab, like the ones they use in london... I thought it could have been you!!!

[RussianM3_dude]

Well, Saturday the 6th I'm out too. It's the Maser Gransport presentation in Valais.

[RussianM3_dude]

Actually, how about something less ambitious? Maybe meet up in some hotel in Valais, take some pics and head home????

[Finalmix]

As for cars in Geneva, I never saw so many Ferarris, lambos, maserratis (sp?), aston martins, porches etc. in one place. I had a Cayman S when I was there and I was almost embarassed to take it on the road. :blush:
Come to Miami, FL and then maybe you'll think twice about where the most are, lol.

[MR USER]

I would propose to meet on Saturday 13th of cotober for our drive.
For the ones meeting in Geneva... as for the last time we could meet in front of AMAG Montbillant (Audi dealer) in Rue Montbrillant.

For the guys joinnig in Vallais I would propose to meet at the petrol station after the roundabout in Martigny (From the motorway in Martigny take direction G. St. Bernard, pass the roundabout and stop on the petrolstation on your right).

If anyone in Italy want to join us I would propose to either meet us Chamonix to drive on the Colle du G. St. Bernard or in Aosta for Lunch and the afternoon drive through the Small St. Bernand...

Let me have your feedback on dated and your porposals for the times... Depending on how many of us will join I will try to contact some local friends to find a nice restaurant to eat something very good!!! If any of you have special needs then PM so we can find good alternatives!

Webbah, LU, FAB... RS4B7, Ti-Mike and all the others are you ok with these first draft...?

[RussianM3_dude]

In principle yes. It's a 50/50 chance I might have to fly to Italy though.

I am OK with this. :thumb:

Joining in Vallais (Martigny)

....

[Ti-Mike]

If the weather will be ok , no rain or snow on the passes i'll be there as well

[MR USER]

A friend of mine from Stuttgart will join us... with an RS4.. He is registerd ad RS Junkie I guess...

[R8_Junkie]

Hello to all RS4 mad ass junkies,

quite obviously some of you will be loosing their license on the 13th of October (Saturday), others will loose their well worked for RS4 in a hairpin curve and others like Mr. User will loose it completely anyways.

As I am not doing this stuff for the first time we need to apply certain rules such as that there will be a group of 2-3 nutters travelling the track at normal speed of lets say >160km/h for 3-5 km together to check out the radar- situation. When beeing called due to no incoming traffic and no radars then 2 others will kick in for the first section. When surviving they will be checking the next section, and so on and so forth...

When everybody is gone through these sections it will be me who is going last, leaving me a good 20km to go nuts on all 4-5 checked sections.

When we do this we need walkie- talkies that I will bring along! Let me know how many take place as I only have 8 available!

To all nutcases in da house! I am looking forward to this weekend, hoping that some RS4 require an entire set of new tires to get home!

[LU-RS6]

I like your style :applause:

[MR USER]

R8 Nutcase... what you are talking about is illegal. We have no intention of braking any law. This is just a showoff cruise on entertainig roads with highly entertainig vehicles. In other words we will cruse to a restaurant and back... No law will be broken...

But the attitude and spirit are there.... Me feelin it

[RussianM3_dude]

I like R8_Junkie style (ze crazy Jerman) however it is unwise to post such things on a public forum. Not for any moral reasons.... Because cops can be reading it and walkie-talkies + nutters + fast cars = massive police presence. Things like this should be discussed by PM only. I was actually going to propose that all future routes are in fact not communicated publically at all, but only by PM.

[R8_Junkie]

Ok people, I suggest no paranoia, no walkie talkies and some grannies on the passenger seat. Anyways, wether we will kick it or smoothly cruise along, I do not mind, as long as I am living a passion with like- minded people. Easy.

Mr R8 Junky... I've got a surprise for you in the closet...

Please bring your grandma along with you... I will pick up mine on the way!!!
Else as a diguise you could put an old sofa on the roof and fill the car with plastic bags... No one will suspect you are a nutcase driver with such camouflage!!!

TO ALL OF YOU COMINIG... I have a camera mount for seats with headrest. it does not fit on the bucket ones... I will bring it along for you to film...
In case any of you has an extra mount that goes with suction or that can work in my car I will be glad to borrow it!!!

[LU-RS6]

I also have a headrest cam mount. Hopefully I won't be too lazy again to load up my gear and everything :doh:

[roadrunner]

now that is the spirit - for all of us poor soles, that cannot join you for various reasons:

RSunday movietime :thumb: :dig:

Keept the camera rollin' and the mikes right next to the exhaust pipe :cheers:

Have fun, and do not dare to come back here without a decent report ;)

Greetings
seb.

[MR USER]

Sir, Yes Sir

[RussianM3_dude]

In view of my possible participation, I am having the exhaust vacuum tubes disconnected tomorrow.

[MR USER]

NIIIICE ONE! loudness will have a new meaning!

[Juliencor]

As mentioned previously I could only on the 14th... shame...

Hope to meet you next time ;)

rgds, Julien

[RussianM3_dude]

How many members of this forum live in Switzerland???

[LU-RS6]

525 RS6 MTM horses waiting to be unleashed.

So how many drivers are joining now?

I'm counting 5?

[MR USER]

It is going to be between 4 and 9 cars...

Still wating for the response of Webbah and Fab

[cit1991]

Drat. If it were 21 Oct, I could go too. Picking up RS4 in Ingolstadt for Euro Delivery on 15th. I have a week with it before I have to head out.

[Webbah]

Crap, Saturdays are kind of tough for me. That is why I prefer Sundays (besides what else is there to do in Switzerland on a Sunday?) ;)

I don't think I can make it on Saturday guys...

[RussianM3_dude]

Ok, I am game for Saturday. Sign me up chief. I am bringing my aviator shades, best of Eurotrash dance of the 90's CD and my pimp hand. Gotta show everybody what's up.

Where is the meet up place in Martigny????

[LU-RS6]

Crap, Saturdays are kind of tough for me. That is why I prefer Sundays (besides what else is there to do in Switzerland on a Sunday?) ;)

You don't think you can make it, but by saying that you are not excluding entirely the possibility of still being able to come :D

[Fab]

Sorry guys but I will not be with you this time. Have a nice time and looking forward to getting nice pics and vids :dig:

Ciao

Fab

[MR USER]

Should we postpone it of one week to allow more people to join?

[RussianM3_dude]

Not a problem... However what if there is snowfall on the passes???

[MR USER]

We take the tunnels in 1st gear and 8000 rev to provoke avalances!!!

[LU-RS6]

Should we postpone it of one week to allow more people to join?

For me it's not a problem, as long you can tell me before Friday noon :)

[RussianM3_dude]

So lets decide ASAP, If not we can just maybe meet up for photos at AMAG (I have to be in Geneva anyways) and do the cruise a week after.

[cit1991]

If you do move it to 20/21, you don't mind if a yank shows up do you?

[RussianM3_dude]

Of course we mind.......


Juuuuuuuust kidding!!!!!

[MR USER]

Pk let us say next Sunday then... the 21st of October....

I'm studying alterantive routes in case the passes are closed...

[RussianM3_dude]

Don't freaking reveal them on the forum though. P.M. only.

I am 90% sure I can make it next Sunday. So it's all good.

[ESS4]

If my RS4 is back from Sportec:mech: , I could also come.....wait and see!!

@RussianM3_dude : Thanks for the PM ;)

[LU-RS6]

Goddamn not a single other RS6 from Switzerland joining or what?

Ah well Ti-Mike will make up with his R8 I suppose.

Still, I hope at least one other RS6 will join!

[Ti-Mike]

can't come because there is a trackday day in Adria, and the cool thing about the trackday in Adria, is that the track is open till 22:00 in the evening.

I tell you nothing more fun then between 17:00 and 22;00 on a track.

I someone would like to come i will be there. guess as well on Saturday, they have very nice Rooms on the track

[MR USER]

Thanks for the invitation TI, i'll be racing there in 2 weeks... and I do not like to track my car... to much wearing!!!

[RussianM3_dude]

I am going to be in Geneva tonight. Anybody wants to go for a drink? (I am probably going to the Russian party in Krystal afterwars.)

[RussianM3_dude]

A good friend of mine, DJ Sputnik is playing in Club Krystal in Geneva on December the 8th. (some kind of Russian party, but it's not 100% Ivan more like 50/50) As his promoter, I'll be there, so if any RS6 members want me to put them on the guest-list, let me know.
