[urq] At last, a real figure for a 20V EFIed urQ quattro Digest, Vol 95, Issue 13

Sun Sep 11 16:42:31 PDT 2011

Unfortunately Gary has failed to inform me that the interior came from a
flooded car, I only found out when he posted the car on ebay almost a year
later and mentioned it in the description.
The seats looked great in pictures but did not convey that the fabric was
stiff as a board.  I decided to keep the 80 quattro original, afterwards it
all made sence.

Cheers

My favorite memory of Charlie and that car is at a Quattro Club event (I
think it was Mid-Ohio). During dinner, with his lovely wife at his side and
a couple of his kids also at the table, he proudly proclaimed that the UrQ
was the best car he'd ever owned. He continued that that claim was based in
no small part on all of his kids being conceived in the car ;-0

Martin, I hope you had the interior cleaned. Thoroughly.

Charlie's car was a fine example pre and post flood, and a fine 1 owner car
until the flood.  I spent a lot of time on the phone, in the car, at the
track, and at the house of Charlie's tech Mike from Sewickly Audi back in
the 10vt build years.  The two of us consumed many beers discussing various
mods, including a few napkin drawings  and mock-ups, as we tried in vain to
redesign the shift linkage to be short throw *and* short gate, figured out
the former giving up on the latter.   Charlie used to put the tires on the
roof rack, and drive the machine to various Quattro Club track events.  In
10vt turbo trim, it had a 'pre-RS2" Ned Ritchie turbo, and a bigger IC that
was laid almost flat, with a fan on the IC itself.  At Grattan in the mid
90's, I tore into the turbo plumbing to fix an air leak.   Mike eventually
moved from Audis to Locomotives (tired of tight engine bays?), and shortly
after that, the RS2 work was done, including the floor pan to take the dual
cats. 

I remember kidding Charlie a few years ago at Mid-OH, driving his Rover with
aluminum enclosed trailer for his porsche, that he came a long way since the
days of cramming the urq full of spares, and balancing track tires on the
roof.

Many of my best early urq stories and 10vt mod ideas rooted in that car, and
many tech discussions with my old friend Ned Ritchie ensued because of it.
AFAIK in 20vt trim, that car never had a Wagner manifold, it was a custom
painted RS2 intake.

Charlie Day's Ur-Q....ah that brings back memories... The first ride I ever
took 

in one was with him, @ my first ever HPDE @ the QCUSA event @ Summit Point
in 

1993. Back then it was a 10V, and I remember it almost like it was
yesterday.

No, it's not. That was Charlie Day's car, and it had a full RS2 engine

(intake and exhaust manifolds) plus he had the dual exhaust floor pan from

the Euro 20VT welded in when the car was restored.

If this car has a Wagner intake, it's probably not Charlie's.
