Was watching a video that was an hour long interview with a Team O'Neil driver, a Rally Mechanic and another enthusiast about how to get into rallying. The driver and mechanic said that the best way to start out is to enter Rallycross races. You don't need anything special to enter those. They said that if you wanted to try one, a popular thing to do is go to the Enterprise Rent-A-Car place or somewhere similar, rent a car and pull the ABS fuse out. Just replace it when you're done and you don't have to pour thousands of dollars into a fancy car.

Trust me German cars from the 80's can have nightmare electrical issues especially ones that where sold in the US.I have seen guys get so angry they simply took a sledge hammer and smashed the car up.You have to find someone that really knows Audis look at that car even before you buy it.
Used to own a 86 BMW M3 in Germany great car but it had some pesky electrical bugs I never worked out. The worst are VW Scirocco a 1985 of that particular make was the one that got bashed by the sledge hammer.

If I was going to make a buy like that, I'd definitely have a mechanic look at it up, down, left, right and backwards. A Turbo Quattro would be awesome though. If any of you guys have one sitting around, I have been in the market for a new car since January.
