A bit of Sport Quattro porn...

Tissues please.

And they say a lotto win "won't change me" my arse!

Having a garage bigger than my house might be seen as wrong, but when you are out trying to use all the fossil fuel left does it really matter

Yummy, one of those only loses out to a Dodge Charger when car shopping the day after a lottery win.



Stunning. Thanks for sharing.

Check out the size of the turbo in the red one

When asked by a nearby young boy how powerful it was, he got the reply "oh I dunno, about 800bhp last time we measured it"



No.74 (the silver one) held the record for the fastest 0-60 road car in Britain for a while I believe. Sub 2s

I love these. Thanks for the pictures.

Did Audi ever make an RS3? I was told yesterday they never and I can't find any info online.. But years ago (early 2000) a bloke came in with a badged up RS3. Basically an A3 but looked wider. Was a twin turbo V6 4WD..
Have you seen these before?

[flounderbout]

They do now. But only since 2011.
Perhaps he took it through the Leigh timewarp?

Maybe we could ask CletusnEmmylou and Cletus

Tis a strange one.. From then on I only ever saw RS4's but never an RS3 and that is probably why. I wonder where the engine and 4wd system was from. And why spend all that money making an RS3 when they could of had an RS4.

Looks like Gurston Down Hillclimb? If so, I was probably there that day with my Minari kit car. I have seen those cars run - do you have any pics of the flames which came out of the exhausts when they change gear?
Cheers,

They talked about one for ages. In 2004 I think everyone thought they were about to bring it out, and I even think there were a few pics floating round. But then I don't think it ever happened. Maybe he had got hold of a pre-production one from somewhere...

Mark, thats Prescott, though we do go to Shelsley too. The silver Audi could be Shelsley, cant remember.

No pics of the antilag in action though - its enough effort trying to get a pic of those bu99ers leaving the start line!

This chap lives by me (and this is Shelsley) - 6R4 but with twin turbos strapped on, but the car suffers reliability and drivability issues. Seen him crash lots!



Thats my boy 'driving' it

Andy, a bloke I used to work with was brought in with another chap to design / make the exhaust manifolds for those 6R4's - so he said
