We recently got back from the North East RS 6 Treffen (@NERS6T) at Pocono Raceway in Pennsylvania where 37 RS 6 Avant came together for one incredible event, all of which is organized and put on by Ray Reyes. Ray's a regular contributor in the pages of quattro Magazine and a fixture in the Audi enthusiast community, specifically amongst RS 6 owners. In this interview we learned more about his background, his event, roll racing and his preference in unhealthy yet delectable fast food.

When we received an invite to attend the press launch of the new RS 3, Audi Club President Ryan Compton seemed like the perfect ringer. The launch would include track time, and Compton is an instructor in our High Performance Driving Education program. He's also got a pair of TT coupes, including a street version and track-prepped racecar with performance Haldex box. He's about as expert as it gets in Audi's transverse Haldex-based tech, so his assessment of the car was valuable to us. In this podcast, he covers a lot of ground talking about his impressions of the car, how well it does on track and actually drifting.
