Default audi quattro rally car B 20V RR

A few other mods that I did last year [2014] to save weight , drilled few holes in ur front strut bodys and ground off excess metal ,saved 1kg per strut , purchased 10 new 16"x8j compromotive alloys these are 1kg lighter per wheel than the 17"x 8.5j borbets I normaly use . lots of other little weight saving mods done even made the aby alternator bracket look like a cheese grater, got it from 1.3kg to 1kg [that's how sad I am] . to reach my target of saving 50kg

Now you do know that anything that does not perform well will be run over by something weighing many tons with a big lump on top and a loud bangy stick don't you Bovington, some nice tackle there !
