So: long-travel, soft-"ish" suspension? Check!Įnough power to "get away from" the common folks (at the time) in a straight line: Check!Įasy to drive wile preserving grip and tolerable at the limit: Check! A little bit more upmarket than your typical Audi at the time - yet considerably less expensive than the usual luxury Coupé suspects (Aston Martin, etc.). This is what even most modern Audi-fans get wrong and they cannot comprehend:Ī big, heavy and LONG (5 cylinder in-line) engine that gets mounted in front of the front wheels (loooong overhang) will allways be felt when driving: it is called the "recipe for understeer".įurthermore: the Sport-Quattro was a child of it's time: meant to be a capable yet comfortable long-distance "GT"-car for the more fortunate middle class. Schiffschaukel, can be found at the fair and should not be on the road. My 1976 Opel Ascona compared to this Audi would have been considered glued to the street. My 1963 Opel Kadett A handled better than this one. As soon as you go beyond 120KM/h it drives like on pudding and gets totally out of control. This Audi Quattro is a fine example that should not show in simulator with this physics. If all regular 1980's cars would have handled like this one, I would have purchased a 1878 Mercedes since that one would have been better on the road.
If KS intended it the Audi Quattro S1 as a rally car they would've added the liveries and all the aero bits.
It's an 80's car the steering should be heavy, the brakes are not good nor bad.
As much as you can rant about it not being a rally car, doesn't handle like a rally car. Originally posted by Sand0x of all, The Audi Quattro (Step 1) isn't there to represent the Group B rally car, it's an upgraded version of the stock car.
