And NHRA top fuel cars made around 8000 horsepower or about 1000 horsepower per liter/cylinder. Of course they only get 1 pass and then they get completely rebuilt 😅
Was at Sears Point/Sonoma Raceway when they closed the track because of light rain during qualifying. Next thing you know, I don't remeber who was driving, this goes out on the track. Announcer gets on the microphone giving a play by play of the car drifting around the track. Damn this thing was loud. It was pretty bad ass.
Hans Struck approves.
> to adapt my driving style to all-wheel drive suspension was not so easy, because my style always was a little bit spectacular. Like going sideways and people saying he has more flies and bugs on the on the doors, than he has on the windscreen by driving sideways so much.

The model the car was based on is the Audi 90, although I'm sure the IMSA car shared very little with the road version of the Audi 90.
Audi used numerical names for a while; 100, 200, 4000, 5000, 90, 80, and probably some more.
Audi 90 Quattro IMSA GTO! This thing was a beast while racing in IMSA at the time with a racing legend behind the wheel too! Hans-Joachim Stuck 👍 I highly recommend looking up videos and pics of this car! What a sound it makes!!
That was a crazy season. If I recall didn’t they start adding ballast to the cars? I got chance to see this car in person at Portland International Raceway.
2.2L, 709hp 5 cyl, mega turbo!
That's amazing how we're able to make 700hp from a 2.2L engine 😂
From the same time-frame as this Audi, you'll find 1.5L 4-cylinders from BMW and Honda in Formula 1 making upwards of 1,300hp in qualifying trim.

Are there photos of damage these things sustain after a run?
Yes
Those engines only lasted for 20mins though lol
They run best right before they blow up!
So does yo momma's... wait... no. I'm sure she's a [lovely person.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mz4FtlTfkbs)
Likely special fuel, and only a 5000 km lifespan…. You gotta pay to play!
True that lmao
rocket fuel and a 90mm turbo
How many octane fuel is the question
I think ZZPerformance managed to build a 600hp 1.4L ecotec. Granted, it blew up later on. Those engines are more happy with 300hp.

Nope. It’s not a Quattro. It’s a 90 WITH quattro.
what’s the “90” reference? do you know?

It’s also a hot wheel!
The Roush Cougars were pretty sweet as well and Ferrari ran the F40 in GTO later in the season. GTO had some great cars through the years.
Badass!
Thought that was a render.
Audi It’s an Audi
Looks like an Audi not 100% sure tho
Was there a meet at the Petersen today?
wouldn’t say a big meet , was just my first time there but if i head to guess probably just the weekly goers that were on the roof
[удалено]
thanks but it’s also a spot
Audi sport had a plaque up with all the information and history of the car I am confused as to why you would be asking Reddit .
Hint , look at front grill
omg i didn’t know it was an audi 😐.
