Yeah, he needs to get that RS4-engined beast (the Apollo, not Lucas' car) over to MRC - it was mis-firing like a pig going past the pit lane.
Went to the MPH show in London yesterday and the Apollo car was there the same one who at ADI, had a good chat with the guy there the engine an RS6 engine with differente pistons and others internals parts the intake is the same, Turbo's are from the RS2 !! Intakes will be replace soon for some better one's wish will increase the power....At ADi the car was running fine i was told. They arew going soon to the ring for some laps.....yeah. They were very impressed by the "tdi" RS4 at the ADI ,could easily take over but the rs4 didn't want to be taken over and was blocking the way and did drive with.....how to say extreme passion!!!! They had to be carefull with the beast wish cost a lot.... :?

By the way MPH great show, had free ticket and visit back stage!!!!( i have a friend who is a driver for Top Gear). I know i am a lucky bastard!!! :wink:

There were two at the ring... One went home in a box. To quote the driver, "I just sold my car to the insurance company".

LOL Phil, I guess it's all relative, but I thought the RS4 was an uber-barge. Uber-super-tanker?

The 6 alsmost got upset, but was hindered by a re-lapse of lardyness.

Part uber and part tanker would be great at sub 8mpg on track, sadly the tanker bit isn't standard or available as retrofit :)
