There are some american obstacles on the track ...

... strange ...

that red 300zx smoked that audi

[juno4000]

The red 300ZX was fast. I love how it kept scraping and sparking.

[Ralleee]

Huge eargasm... Holy shit

bet the driver was like: U F*CKING NOOBS, LET ME PASS, FAGS, DON'T BLOCK!:D

[HofbrauWatts]

God bless Germany!

I jizzed at 0:24

[GameSharkWizard]

This looks kinda scary than the other videos i've seen because people usually don't drive so fast on narrow tracks, like 1 wrong move and your car is finished.

[carbonsnail]

Are you kidding me! I went to this race and than saw the replay on ESPN a couple of days later. "In the car ohh yeah. Take us for a ride Hurley." Ive remembered him saying that back than on TV it's always stuck with me. IMSA was so fucking awesome back than man those were great times. I wonder if they still sell On Track magazine. Thanks for the memories. Much love to you...

[ubuntunoobz]

american and japan shit get out the way the Germans are coming ;}

[MrLowAltitude]

That's why I love Audi: They have the balls to do crazy stuff!

Racing with a 2.1 litre engine against big V8s, throwing 4wd in a road car and so on...

[MaxSampla]

Woow! what a sound and speed!

[dannuserectus]

audi was very good at gaining an unfair advantage with 4wd, I saw these cars in competition , they did things the other cars could not do , not so much with their power but with the handling that the 4wd gave them.

[G60EXTREM]

@dannuserectus v8´s vs quattroturbo thats the point ;)

.... and 360mm wheels :DDD

new reglement because.... we´re 2f4y XD

[picondor]

AUDI IS YOUR DADDY learn americans!! Nice video :-)

[paultatters]

odzadze123

you have some right some wrong!!!

[aimanrs2]

sending shivers down my spine

[AnarchieKrieger]

The sound of audi quattro engine is by far the sound i like in all of other engines. I just love it! It vibrates my soul :)

[22j77]

It massages your stomach (that's how a journalist described it once). Gotta love the 5 pot Audi.

[Kochiminator2]

german down sizing engineering beats the v8 superstars...

the 5ylinder has just 2.1l or 2.3l. im not sure but around this two values.

[v8tdi]

your right they used a 2.1 Litre Engine, but but really big boost!!!!

[Kochiminator2]

yeah, of course you also right.

turbocharged 2.1 5cylinder with 720ps and 4wd. the greatest touring car ever.

[jel251]

it felt like the video was fast forwarded wow they are going fast.

[DaSchraadz]

5 cylinders for the win! This engine sounds so awesome!

Thank you very much for uploading!

[96gts]

Nope, the MKV GTI and GLI have a 2.0 turbo 4 cylinder which is basically an evolution of the 1.8T found in the MKIV. The 2.5L nonturbo 5 cyl in the MKV Golf and Jetta is basically a brand new engine, unfortunately not related to this monster from the '80s

[odzadze123]

YES...

early 2.0 TFSI turbo (200KW) is direct injected engine based on legendary engine block (EA827) from 1972 and evolution introduced in 1993 ( EA113),just like famous 1.8T.

Newer 2.0TSI (155KW) is based on Brand new project block EA888 with new architecture.

2.3 5 cyl. 10V engines is basically VR5!

It's VR6 with one cyl. less.

2.5 5 cyl. 20v inline engine code BGP / BGQ for U.S. market is not related to audi AAN/CQT... This inline 5 it's brand new!

[buggable]

But Audi is giving this 2.5 engine from Mexico the "Audi-Treatment" for the new TT RS. Not made for a thousand HP like the old cast iron block, but a good engine with typical 5 cylinder qualities (SOUND!)

[Kurzb3]

in audi they drove some Test TT-RS with 500+ hp absolutely standable but you are right they are not as standable like the old 5 cylinder engine but good for 500hp;)

[francosweet]

I have an Audi IMSAA GTO :-) In 1:18 scale from Minichamps.The finest modell i ever seen before.

[ScarfaceHood]

Audi = Aussergewöhnliche unverbesserliche deutsche Ingeniuerskunst

Ich bin selbst stolzer Besitzer eines Typ 85er Coupés. :)

[jimmaey]

the audi 5 cylinder 2.2 20 valve Turbo engine are the best,insane, engines on the planet! period. i would give anything to own an 90 IMSA GTO

[adwi123]

You can see how the audi is way faster than any american crap that was racing there lollll

[TeamDVS]

And I guess you think that all wheel drive vs. 2wd is a fair comparison????

[odzadze123]

why american car(CRAP)maker don't developed all wheel drive???

and do you think that 2.2 engine against big block is fair comparison???

Audi rule!!!

[TransAmDrifter]

Maybe because they don't need it for any other than off-road and suv vehicles. This question is just like "why VW isn't using torsen diffs in their 4x4 cars, while Audi is doing so?"

having a 2.2L turbo engine is not a disadvantage against a big block non turbo V8. Turbo makes that 5cyl. engine smaller and lighter, while boosting its power up to those big block heavy metal crates... You know... inertia and such is very important in racing... less weight=less inertia=quicker change of directions

[odzadze123]

Yes, with quattro and torsen differencial audi is much more stable at road and have better traction.

quite nice invention of Audi engineering

VW/Audi use haldex (50:50) in their comercial models because their cars with 200-300 hp are basically FWD,and than RWD,this car understeer !

Like Audi S3,Passat 4-motion...

for Sport-racing projects with more power

they use Torsen!!!

Oversteer like RS 4...

American car makers don,t have simmilar invention (like torsen diff.) in that time!

[odzadze123]

Also Europeans have smaller cars,with better fuel efficiency and 4 wheels drive is needed for safer drive and better traction on zigzag european roads,or for snowy roads like in Scandinavia or Switzerland...

So QUATTRO is step forward!!!

[drewnashty]

@adwi123 What are you retarded, comparing vs American cars is infantile, you mean to compare this to the likes of British, German and Italian race cars. And yes the motor screams like no other.

[fueldragster]

@adwi123 You do realize this race was won by a Murcury Cougar driven by Wally Dallenbach, Jr

[Greenstang02]

@adwi123

The cougar where the absolute beast. Roush was way ahead with the 2.5 four cylinder, Audi seriously lacked hp to compete with them.

[IC2720]

We have the Whittington brothers to thank for ruining IMSA as it was in those days. IMSA, stood for International Marijuahna Smuggeling Association. Google Dick Whittington, and read the Wikipedia article about those bone headed brothers.

[amtgman]

Yeah, I call bullshit.

[IC2720]

Call what you like, I was there. I worked for three years with a factory team in GTP, and two years for IMSA. My family has involved in some form of raceing for the last fourty plus years. I know a bit of what I speak.

[suckerprod]

ach komm... dat bisschen gras, geht lieber mal die knarren einsammeln ;)

[superfast30]

Thats not a blow off valve. The reason why you hear that sound is because they never ran one one on the IMSA specification AUDI's. The noise you are hearing is compressor back surge. I am sure the turbo was useless after each but they didnt care. It was a factory race effort so cost wasnt s a big issue. Not running a BOV greatly reduces turbo lag!

[audigod]

Actually its a Diverter valve which almost all audi racecars used and it also came stock on the S models from 1992-1994 it recirculates half the air into the intake manifold and throws the rest into the atmosphere and thats why you hear it

[mgrande11]

Don't the MKV GTI/GLI have that setup, and is the 2.5 I-5 in the jetta some sort of an off shoot of this engine minus the turbo and all the pricey stuff?

[MOliscous]

Where do I get a blow-off valve that sounds like that?

[superfast30]

The greatest engine sound of all time IMO!

[jemoederdt]

Sounds awful indeed. Love the sound of 5 cilinders, luckaly I have one too. Unfortunately it is not as fast as this one.

[FM77]

cheers for posting...some sound indeed.

[PumbaRuben]

I was so lucky to see that car for real last december...it made my eyes water almost. It was for sure a religious moment

[sharpanator]

Walther Röhrl and Hans Stuck also drove there. The noise of 5 cylinde audi is awesome. For me the 5 cylinder turbo and the Carrera GT V10 from Porsche are the best sounding engines ever.

[AccAkut1987]

godd news for inline-5 fans: The new Audi TT-SS will again have a turboed inline-5, maybe a sort of half V10 from the S6.

[AndrewEG]

i love 5 cylinder engines!

[MidKnightFD]

I would like to see more of this. Where did you get the footage?

[JoeytheHDK]

damn. That engine sounds damn fine.

[audigod]

inline 5 20v single turbo my friend

[klasse2bub]

Thats a fucking sick car!
