Seems we finally have some documentation as to what Audi is/was up to in BTCC
racing anyhow...  It appears that dispite the 'apparent known' disadvantages
of VC's, audi was quite successful using them on the track.   And, just as
successful at NOT putting them in our street cars...

Cool, kinda redefines "quattro advantage" don't it?
