2014 is already positioned to be a banner year for Audi of America and Audi Sport Teams so it’s fitting that Audi Club North America is also set to make 2014 big. And what is bigger in the U.S. than Texas? For Texans and Audi Club Lone Star the answer is nothing. Audi Club Lone Star and Audi Club North America are excited to invite you to the 2014 Audi Club North America National Event in Austin, Texas!

Come and celebrate ACNA’s 30th Anniversary in the Live Music Capital of the World, enjoy great food, scenic hill country drives, and be a part of the historic Lone Star Le Mans as the R18s vie for victory in the first ever day-to-night race in Circuit of the Americas history. This also marks the only time in 2014 the R18s will be competing on American soil. The five day celebration starts Wednesday, September 17th and will host a number of ACNA member exclusives and once-in-a-lifetime experiences both with and without your Audi.

Not a motorsports fan? Then enjoy both local and international cuisine, dine in any one of the world famous barbeque joints, pick up a pair of boots and cowboy hat at Allens Boots or Cavender’s, tour the Texas Capitol building, listen to live music…nearly anywhere, enjoy destination drives through Texas Hill Country, or do it all.The 30th Anniversary 2014 ACNA National Event promises to offer something for everyone, and everyone an opportunity to do it with fellow ACNA members. It’s the members that make this club great, and this year’s event will offer exciting opportunities to both challenge fellow members in driving prowess and engage in member camaraderie. The four rings are all about bringing people together to share their passion for Audis new and old.
