Parts pricing and availability.
A bonnet (hood) for an ur-quattro is GBP232.
The same part for a Sport is GBP7602. That's $10,000!
Raditor grill for ur-quattro - GBP41. $55 - $60.
The same part for a Sport - GBP3562. $5000!
Unless you can get the factory on your side somehow (legendarily
difficult) the Sport is hard to finance in competition.
