Fantastica documentazione...invidio in senso buono chi ha avuto la fortuna di essere un po'più grande di me e poter vivere da vicino quella fase così bella e positiva della storia dell'automobililismo
Just imagine, testing that fantastic car and they pay you for doing it !!! Walter Röhrl, you are my hero. Did somebody check on a certain identically prime, Group B times vs. todays cars?
I agree, i said this when i heard them testing the gallardo on top gear in Monte Carlo about a year ago. It's an Audi engine in the Gallardo i believe.
I agree, I spoke with Harald at last years Rally Legend in San Marino, my son and I drove our ur quattro from Wales to the event and were treated like royalty, the funny thing was, I looked at Harald and thought that he had aged, then I looked in the mirror..... P.s you're a lucky git!!
Did the S1E2 for the 1986 campaign have 600 BHP and what was the output on the 2 PDK box models? I always wondered if they had slightly more, because the one in the 85 RAC rally looked very fast before it went off the road. I've also read on some posts the engine was capable of 1000BHP, but I cant imagine the turbo lasting that long..
@z18turbo within 2 years groupA were quicker than gpB.hard to believe but thats what handling and tyres can do.like the bmw quoate 'powers nothing without control'
@markandrach Don't forget also that group B cars ran on much more open stages than moden cars so it can be hard to compare the two. Would have been great to see what these would have evolved into without the modrern regulations.
@mupp33n many people say thar rally died when Group B was banned... I don't agree with that! We all can watch videos of the 90's with the stages full of people, having a great joy following their heroes and the new cars (Group A and WRC after that...). Rally died when many manufaturers like Subaru, Peugeot, Mitsubishi, Toyota (and others) decided to abandon rally! And then only Ford and Citroen remained in the fight for the title, but Citroen and Loeb were obviously better all this years..
@pershio I don't like some things the FIA is thinking of but banning Group B was the right decision. Rest in Peace Michel Wyder, Sergio Cresto, Henri Toivonen and several spectators.
@mupp33n I wonder if that's because rally is so unpredictable. You never know who's going to win and there are so many different manufacturers, and cars are so diverse, every race is different. Oh wait, none of that is true anymore :(
@Baena87 how very wrong u are, altho the audi factory refused to move the engine, as it was suppose to resemble production audis of that era, the fact that audi led a few rallies b4 sucomming to various issues, and the fact that Walter trounced the pugs in San Remo, Hannu led both the pugs and lancias in the lombard RAC means they were still very competitive, the wings and PDK gearboxes wud have kept them very much there with a shout
@pershio Because they want control. WRC is dead in comparison to Group B rally. There was like hundreds of thousands in the spectators/audiences back then, now you see like 5 people standing here and there.
might have something to do with, no2 instead of fire extinguishers!, 600hp and cars made of early technology carbon/kevlar too many spectators getting in the way to see the spectacle, portugal 1986? its a shame but it was inevitable
@Hackmannhasstaudi cannot compare the two cars, two completely different machines which run to two seperate rules, the lancia had no rivals for a few years, till the celica began making it look slow, wheres the audi was running as a production model (or be it highly modified) against mid engined purpose built cars!
@Hackmannhasstaudi cannot compare a 405 full of tech and running a Evolution 205 engine to a simple GR B Audi, just like u cannot compare a 405 with the ultra modern suzuki, 3 different generations, the fastest Gp B car up the mountain was the pikes peak audi
The greatest driver in the greatest ever car.
The master at work pure talent!!
Best rallye driver ever in the best rallye car ever.
Walter Rörl and his Audi Quattro - LEGENDARY!
Fantastica documentazione...invidio in senso buono chi ha avuto la fortuna di essere un po'più grande di me e poter vivere da vicino quella fase così bella e positiva della storia dell'automobililismo
one of the greatest cars in motorsport ever ! will be seeing one in a few weeks at chatsworth
not as quick as modern wrc cars though
I have had the pleasure of driving a standard sport quattro (304hp) they are awesome, it makes my scooby look slow
This video demostrates how loud this beast was!
its so sad, they put down the air intake cause of durability...... ;( the + air intake is closed on the historic machines
this is GOLDEN!! thank you for posting
Just imagine, testing that fantastic car and they pay you for doing it !!! Walter Röhrl, you are my hero.
Did somebody check on a certain identically prime, Group B times vs. todays cars?
Its a beast. The best Car/Driver ever!
Il sound del 5 cilindri Audi è ipnotico, è una droga.
Audi Quattro S1, Lancia ECV, Lacia 037 and the Lancia S4 are the best rally cars ever to grace the planet.
love the sound of the audi,
röhrl .. eine legende auf 4 rädern!
Röhrl and Quattro, goes together like ...well...nothing goes together that well....
Great Vid, thanks for upload!!
holy crap! this gives you an idea, of how loud the backfires of the audi were, 2:40, it looks like were more than 1 km away, and its loud as hell
I agree, i said this when i heard them testing the gallardo on top gear in Monte Carlo about a year ago. It's an Audi engine in the Gallardo i believe.
Superb vid - Thanks for sharing it
@pershio Simply the most brutal, brilliant and amazing looking rally car ever produced. I would hate to have a go in this thing :-)
the driver is called WALTHER RÖHRL.
he is the best
Very precious video !
I agree, I spoke with Harald at last years Rally Legend in San Marino, my son and I drove our ur quattro from Wales to the event and were treated like royalty, the funny thing was, I looked at Harald and thought that he had aged, then I looked in the mirror..... P.s you're a lucky git!!

and... a marvelous mighty turbo
If I saw that coming in my rear view mirror my head would spontaneously explode.
@streethassled what do you think the TT RS or the RS3 are?
@markandrach 'powers nothing without control', That's very true.
is ja mal hammer
gibts davon mehr?
kann man das irgendwo in guter qualität downloaden?
@z18turbo within 2 years groupA were quicker than gpB.hard to believe but thats what handling and tyres can do.like the bmw quoate 'powers nothing without control'
bellissima
Alter lachs :D Die Aufnahme ganz am ende aus grosser entfernung is hammer =) Was der wagen einfach nur für ein geräusch macht wenn er vom gas geht^^
530-600HP 0-100kmh in 2,6 sec. on gravelI ! it is insane and disturbed but i like it :-)
I wished we had group B rally back again .
das beste auto der welt !!!!!!
@pershio Your right mate. If you die doing what you love then you should be able to race
@markandrach Don't forget also that group B cars ran on much more open stages than moden cars so it can be hard to compare the two. Would have been great to see what these would have evolved into without the modrern regulations.
youre so right. nowadays rally is a sprint, with 1500kg cars and 400hp. no more time for cool sound and the annihilator within... Audi S1
@ 0:54 german: " ja samol, wie springstn da ums eck rum?" english: "wtf, how are you jumping around this corner, there"
the SoUnD is so niceeeeeeeeee
awsome :))
The Audi Quattro is seen in 0:10 is the personal coach who gave him the Audi at that time, he has today.
Avião do caraças...
Fantastico!!..
il primo pezzo è la strada di pian soprano giusto?!..
bellissima..la faccio spesso!!:-)..
I guess diffrent would the word i like american muscle and also like this audi
@CuSToS93
So what, I love Supra's and I-m ex-owner, but this Audi is something unreal :)
@mupp33n many people say thar rally died when Group B was banned... I don't agree with that! We all can watch videos of the 90's with the stages full of people, having a great joy following their heroes and the new cars (Group A and WRC after that...).

And then only Ford and Citroen remained in the fight for the title, but Citroen and Loeb were obviously better all this years..
audi power forever..
When he's going slowly downhill it reminds me of some old zastava with rusty and broken exhaust pipe, haha.
уау!!!!)))
der Benzinfilter für 50 Pfenning zu geil! 0:58
but this Audi is better for me than any american muscle :)
a good suggestion.. yeah with no 'human wall'
@arshadali797 haha resorting to name calling.modern drivers are just as talented as the past drivers.
@2jzgtejza80 i wish they would start a comeback in the rally scene. that´d be awesome
@pershio I don't like some things the FIA is thinking of but banning Group B was the right decision. Rest in Peace Michel Wyder, Sergio Cresto, Henri Toivonen and several spectators.
0:54 Und wie is er denn jetzt ums Eck gesprungen? :(
@Kurzb3
Ok, but AQ S1 have best straight 5 enegine ever made and most powerful 5cyls turbocharged engine ever. it can put out over 1000bhp
@mupp33n I wonder if that's because rally is so unpredictable. You never know who's going to win and there are so many different manufacturers, and cars are so diverse, every race is different. Oh wait, none of that is true anymore :(
At least it moved faster.
Kreizschraubnziaga, zwa größn =D Jojo wir Österreicher sand scho geil! ....und wiea springstn do ums Eck rum...ahaha
@octoslut
R8 is show car, specially weak V8, 5.2 V10 is something different, i think that V10 R8 is competitor in FIA GT1 class.
sehe ich da wirklich ein nummernschild an dieser höllenmaschine? :D
Was besseres als Audi quattro gibt es halt nicht.
you know why they put 4*4 in s1, cuz if it was a rwd it would go wheelie every time u hit tha gas hahaha :D
@DonPhilip88 offensichtlich ,ich war auch Überrascht Oo
@Baena87
how very wrong u are, altho the audi factory refused to move the engine, as it was suppose to resemble production audis of that era, the fact that audi led a few rallies b4 sucomming to various issues, and the fact that Walter trounced the pugs in San Remo, Hannu led both the pugs and lancias in the lombard RAC means they were still very competitive, the wings and PDK gearboxes wud have kept them very much there with a shout
1 billoin stars!!!!!
@pershio Because they want control.
WRC is dead in comparison to Group B rally. There was like hundreds of thousands in the spectators/audiences back then, now you see like 5 people standing here and there.
might have something to do with, no2 instead of fire extinguishers!, 600hp and cars made of early technology carbon/kevlar too many spectators getting in the way to see the spectacle, portugal 1986? its a shame but it was inevitable
Drenajunkie-yes the have 300 hp but imense amount of torque and 25 years of technology which all adds up to wrc cars being quicker
@Hackmannhasstaudi
cannot compare the two cars, two completely different machines which run to two seperate rules, the lancia had no rivals for a few years, till the celica began making it look slow, wheres the audi was running as a production model (or be it highly modified) against mid engined purpose built cars!
S1 have 2.2L straight 5
@2jzgtejza80 ehm no - 2,14 *1,4 turboratio = 2,996 - cause of the rules in the group B they had to be under 3litre cubic capacity
2,2l would be 3,08
@Hackmannhasstaudi
cannot compare a 405 full of tech and running a Evolution 205 engine to a simple GR B Audi, just like u cannot compare a 405 with the ultra modern suzuki, 3 different generations, the fastest Gp B car up the mountain was the pikes peak audi
@2jzgtejza80 And Audi S1 breacks Pikes Peack (US race) record
mi sto commuovendo... :'(
@pershio Except for all those people who died...
@2jzgtejza80 definetely
That is clearly not a S1 but rather an E2. Look at the giant wing and the wide mudguards.
woifiii Man....Bruhh E2 is the second gen of the S1
Christopher Belanger Nope, the E2 has nothing to do with the S1: www.ableitet.no/twentyS1/s1vse2.htm
This is a Quattro S1 but the 2nd evolution, believe me (ex Audi Sport UK) hence E2 (Evolution 2)
too bad 4cyl engines doesnt sound any close to v8's :)
made in germany :-P
@MarvXP nicht mal die eigene sprache erkennen können haha
3:07 tuoni
@2jzgtejza80 dude youre name speaks japanese nothing else :D
of course its better then american muscle :D
@2jzgtejza80 kicks the muscle cars into the dirt on thier own race at pikes peak.hahaha
audi rulit i niebet!!!! ;))
