Urq - Sport Quattro

[Dave.Eaton]

yes, although audi did "officially" rally the s2, using sms - back in '92 i
think.

you also forgot to mention the s1, which was the evolution of the sport
quattro.  this carried the major aerodynamic modifications to the sport.
afaik, michele didn't rally the s1.

Correct, the S2 name was used on the type89 wagon, coupes and I believe
a few sedans, that had the 20V turbo engine(similar to the 3B/RR engine)
installed into them. These were pimarily road cars that were produced by
the factory, but there were also some S2 based rally cars. The S2 name
was never used to describe the urq or sport q series of cars.
