Remember the year that the $2000 Challenge included a rallycross? Okay, that’s not really what’s going on here. Craig Le Moyne brought this 1986 Audi 4000 CS down from Dearborn and went a little wide at one point.
Total budget for the build was less than a grand, and that …
I really miss my old 4000 quattros ( I had a 84 and a 87)

At the time, we didn’t appreciate them enough.
Also, how far is this driver off course?
In reply to David S. Wallens :
I bought the 84 in 85 and it was the best thing for upstate NY winters. Rock solid and could take on insanely deep snow. I used to pull Subarus out of snow banks for fun.
In that same era (2002-2004 challenge), wasn't there a different year 4000 or 5000 with a v8 installed into it? White with Audi stripes?

Looks to me like this was from the year(s) that the autocross was done on the test track that hides in the back corner of the property. I got to do an autocross on it once, when I lived in Gainesville. I wish that course got used more than it does. I check back there during every $2k Challenge and it seems to get used for RC Airplanes, but otherwise abandoned for car use.
Still occasionally look for them for sale...
There is a shop near my work that does shock valving and vapor blasting that has a combination of 4 ot 5 Coupe GTs and Audi 4000s in their covered fence...I can tell what they are through the gaps heh
In reply to Lof8 - Andy :
Bummer that little road course is no longer being used, but at times the water sat rather close to the edge of the pavement....
