Correct, this was in an SQ S1, the car with the large rear wing and large 
raked front valence. Some sources describe this version of the SQ S1 as the
SQ S1 Evolution 2. Some of the confusion over the names assigned to
the sport quattro derivitives comes from the names used in the FIA 
homogulation paperwork. The large rear wing and front valence were
homogulated with a paperwork name of SQ S1 Evolution 2. But many
Audi sources just list the car as the SQ S1. Clear as mud, huh?
