You're also up against the Ur-Q as well (although only the ones with 8x15s
have a chance in this class).  ;^)

Actually, only THE Quattro & Coupe Quattro are in CSP; the 4kq is in DSP
("4000, 5cy.") and the V8, 200q and 5ktq are in ESP, where they compete
against Mustangs and Camaros.  If there has been a "killer coupe" run in
Solo II at the national level, I've never heard of or seen it and I've been
doing this since '89.

BTW, I haven't seen the new issue of Sportscar yet so I don't know anything
about the proposed rules but the first Audi that I think of for this class
would be the '81 4000 5+5.  With a bit of work, you can get 150+hp using
only external bolt-on mods and it should weigh under 2200 pounds in race
trim.  It also has a Type O16 gearbox, which means you can fit a Quaife LSD
to it as well...
