Track
Kaipola, Finland, 24 January 2005, 13.27 Clock: The expression of Uwe Bleck would hardly be otherwise when his car at home in the garage or at the bakery is pull up. He sits behind the wheel and looks calm and relaxed. He has his Audi A6 4.2 quattro in Atlas Grey just after a real "Ascension" at 47 meters above the ground at an angle of 37.5 degrees - and - about 80 percent. On a ski jump.
The Audi engineer has repeated a feat that was previously only rally driver Harald Demuth had achieved the 1986th For an almost legendary quattro commercial Demuth was then in a red Audi 100 CS quattro (136 bhp) drove up the ski jump in Finland Kaipola seen any action since. A record that had to ride the stock Uwe Bleck. To mark "25 years of quattro" Audi has now a sequel to this ad filmed on the same jump. The 45-second film "Schanze 2005" is from the 5th March broadcast. Another special feature of this film production explains Hans-Christian rockers, Director of Marketing Communications at AUDI AG: "We have realized such a complex film production for the first time without an agency Everything was managed internally by Audi We are particularly proud of..." Project manager Silke Mathews and Gerhard Kiefer, responsible at Audi for film productions coordinated nearly all tasks that would otherwise be performed by an advertising agency. Kiefer also acted as director of the film: "This was a great story Such a project you do not get often in professional life.."
Kiefer's is a remake of the hill spots, which inspired the dramatic effect of course closely linked to the 1986 original. That was also the director's problem: "For me the challenge is to make a film, which everyone already knows, and yet keep the tension up," says Kiefer. He therefore devised the ad as a kind of duel between the hill and the Audi A6 as the challenger.
The music for the film was specially composed by Robert Pabst and the chorus and orchestra of the State Theatre recorded Gärtnerplatz Munich with an ensemble of some 80 musicians. So far, the broadcast the film on television is provided, use as cinema advertising is planned. The spot is again designed so that it can be exhibited in many markets as possible.
To make the commercial, the 40-strong production team in January 2005, was good for a week on the set. Therefore the hill, about 300 kilometers north of Helsinki was located, awakened from their hibernation. Previously there had been eleven years no more activity on takeoff seen any action since the plant was shut in 1994. The repair work had been started only three weeks before the actual start of filming. The passage of time had noticeably taken their toll on the entablature of the hill. Example, had the wooden ramp, are planked scratch.
The whole project was the underlying principle: Safety first. The car to keep up on the hill in the steep slope, was the biggest challenge. As soon as it stopped there it would immediately slide back. So had to be above the A6 "retained". Therefore an elaborate system has been installed at the hill and under the vehicle. The-back safety device was equipped with three independent systems. She was on a steel baseplate and weighed around 65 kilograms. This "sled" was on the vehicle floor of the 335-hp Audi A6 installed (1.9 tonnes) and merely served to prevent the car from sliding back, he could not pull him.
Otherwise, that drove up the hill was a normal serial version of the Audi A6 4.2 quattro with 6-speed tiptronic is used. Two minor exceptions: the automatic transmission was kept in first gear, the slight power loss during gear changes had such a steep gradient made it impossible to climb as well as the six-millimeter spikes on the tires. A tire that is reared in rallying.
Thus began Bleck a breathtaking ride in the sky. In first gear at 4,200 rpm and at about 60 kilometers per hour, the A6 stormed up the jump, the 80-percent gradient with incredible ease. Later Bleck said: "I would even at the steepest point can accelerate." Nine seconds Bleck arrived at the starting gate, 47 meters in height. Total Bleck drove the A6 eleven times completely up the jump.
