AUDI QUATTRO BELGA 1985 SPA BJORN WALDEGAARD

Björn Waldegaard / Thorzelius - Audi Quattro A2 the winner of 1985 Boucles de Spa.

 

Marc Duez / Thimonier was second best in Mazda RX7 while Bernard Munster / Bozet  (Audi  Quattro) completed the podium.

 

Heard that the tail end of the rally was dramatic, filled with misfortunes, opportunistic breaks and eventful drives.

Waldegaard was struggling and stuck in a heavier than expected snow. Demuth, who was in the Societa Italiana Vetro Audi, led by a whopping 20 minutes only to be stopped by breakdowns.

Duez took over the lead until his Perilli repeatedly punctured.

 When the dust settled, Waldegaard came home with a huge 6 minutes plus margin.

Pardon my pix, believe me the car is much better than it looks.

AUDI A4 ROTHMANS TERRY MOSS 1996 SOUTH AFRICA TOURING CARS CHAMPIONS

1996, the year A4 took the world by surprise. And this one is something else as it came from the other corner of the world. Terry Moss, no relation with Stirling Moss, dominated throughout the season, earning him invitations to drive in 24hrs Spa and other races in Europe.

The Rothmans paint scheme is excellent as always. This model is of High Speed origin and doesn't look like one, only much better.
