SUMMARY

A bespoke TT RS professionally built to break records with its 80-year-old owner. Offered at the Supercar Fest with a slot booked on the Runway for Sunday!

DESCRIPTION

Offered here at the Supercar Fest 2023 is a very nicely built Audi TT RS that has been thoughtfully modified with the intention of breaking speed records, and may well be the fastest Audi TT RS in the world. Our vendor’s declining health now dictates that the time has come to sell the car, and this is an opportunity to take ownership of a famous TT, well known in Audi and speed-record circles, and held in much regard as a well-engineered, very fast road car. Excitingly, subject to cleared funds, the winning bidder will be able to enjoy a demonstration run on the Sywell runway on the Sunday with the opportunity to set the fastest time of the day.

The car will be presented to the sale after having a complete spanner and systems check-over by the company originally commissioned to develop the car from a standard TT RS into something capable of producing 1,400bhp when using High Octane Race Fuel and able to sprint from 100-200kph in 2.94 seconds.

This car has been extensively developed primarily with acceleration and straight-line speed in mind, and there is too much information to list here, but a detailed spec-sheet is available for interested parties. Naturally, the engine has been stripped and meticulously reassembled with competition parts bearing in mind the likely power output, the gearbox rebuilt with a lightened flywheel and similarly the clutch and drivetrain rebuilt with components that will handle the substantial levels of torque. A new large turbo with a bespoke F1-spec intercooler system and a bespoke manifold have been fitted and fuelling is through secondary injectors on a custom fuel-rail with brushless pumps and Aquamist meth-injection. Fuelling and engine management are the responsibility of the latest version of S7 Syvecs ECU.

Retardation is provided by a set of Audi R8 Ceramic brakes and handling by a set of custom-made Bilstein B16 coil-overs with Hadlex 4-wd traction control. Beautifully presented in all black, the little Audi is finished off nicely with a set of lightweight TSW 19’’ alloys.

Somewhere in the region of £90,000 has been invested to create this incredible Audi TT RS and it has now been brought to market at a very sensible guide. This is a real ‘Q-car’ that appears almost standard from the outside, however, when the lights change it becomes evident that the adjective 'ballistic' seems more appropriate.
