The 2012 Audi Driving Experience: Winter Edition

Germans cars, frozen lake: We check out the 2012 Audi Driving Experience at the Nakoda on the Lake in Kananaskis, Alberta.

Ripping around on a frozen Canadian lake is one thing. Throw in a fleet of luxury sport sedans and a group of highly skilled driving instructors, and you’ve got the 2012 Audi Driving Experience – an exclusive opportunity to take winter driving to a completely new level.

For 2012, the Audi Driving Experience, Winter Edition, finds itself in two regions across Canada, both on frozen lakes. The first course takes place at the Esterel Suites, Spa & Lac Montreal, Quebec, from February 12 – 19. The second experience was held at Nakoda on the Lake, Spa Lodge and Conference Centre, Kananaskis, Alberta, from February 28 to March 4.

The high-adrenaline driving program is led by legendary racer Scott Goodyear, along with six other Audi-certified, experienced drivers/instructors, including Richard Spenard, Antoine Bessette, Jeff Boyce, Pierre Des Marais, Daniel Morad, and Steve Weber.

In addition to getting behind the wheel of the 2012 Audi S4 3.0 TFSI Quattro, a 333hp, 7-speed luxury sports sedan, participants get to experience first-hand the grip of Pirelli Sottozero Serie II tires, original equipment fitment for the 2012 Audi S4.
