Quicker Than a McLaren F1: The Audi RS2 - BTS with DTS - Ep. 12

[@ISSIMIOfficial]

Here is more of the back story behind Audi’s unintended acceleration as stated by “The Car Conmection”, for those of you interested: In November 1986, the CBS news show 60 Minutes aired a dramatic segment that skewered Audi's largest sedan, then called the 5000, as fatally dangerous, due to its alleged tendency to accelerate out of control. Because 60 Minutes couldn't get the cars it tested to replicate the "unintended acceleration", the show modified an Audi 5000 to behave as if it were accelerating out of control, then aired the segment. The piece included the lurid tale of a mother who ran over her 6-year-old son. Images of wrecked Audis occupied minutes of air time. And the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration embarked on a lengthy investigation. The agency concluded that because the Audi's accelerator and brake pedals were placed close together, inattentive drivers were confusing the two by pressing the accelerator when they intended to brake. Europeans, it should be noted, recorded no such incidents. In the end, the NHTSA attributed the incidents to driver error, and closed their investigation. A halfhearted partial retraction from 60 Minutes made no mention of that conclusion.

[@ArtemLokhovitskiy]

Incredible story of NHTSA showing the world stupidity of American drivers and media covering it up protecting those stupid people. One terrible lie led to significant financial damage. But!!! That lie also provoked Audi to go heavy into motorsport and we got these wonderful S and RS toys :) Moral of the story?... I don't know. Maybe... "If you get slapped for no reason - do your best and show what you really capable of and this will lead you to a great success"

[@paulmarentette5346]

IIRC NHTSA deemed it "Pedal misapplication." Only bright point was that allowed a much, much younger me to move from Jetta GL to a 3 yr old 5000 Avant for not much financial difference. One year later, sadly a moose ran in front while I was closing on a blind bend, which I hit and flipped over the hood of that Avant. Legs straight up in the air that 850lb cow moose's rump deflected off the windshield and my (driver's) a-pillar. After the incident, the sunroof and door window still closed without issue. The only place the smashed-in windshield opened was where the wiper arm was pressed through. Terrible end for that unfortunate animal but my wife, myself and two young daughters were kept perfectly safe. I replaced that car with another 100 Avant and drove that car for 8 years, selling it for nearly what I'd paid for it, since by that point the unintended accel fiasco had passed. Sure they had their issues, but Audis were quite popular here in Canada, which meant easy and affordable parts runs, often to recycling yards allowed me to keep those vehicles in pristine in appearance and operation at a time of high "just starting out" expenses to still drive a satisfying, capable and proven safe vehicle.

Thank you all for watching and all the positive comments! We’ve noticed a lot of comments regarding the speedometer being “disconnected to preserve mileage”. The speedometer was acting up the day of filming and is not disconnected, as you can see it works in other clips. If you knew the owner of this car you would know without a shadow of a doubt he is not interested in preserving mileage 😂

[@yxcvmk]

:-) Didn't think about "preserving mileage", was more thinking in line of "preserving" the drivers license, in case he is by accident a tad to fast during filming on the public road :-)

[@martytdd1606]

He wasn't 'taken' bud, he had an accident. Stunt driving and motorsport are dangerous jobs, can't really be surprised when a high risk taker gets maimed or is killed doing what they do.

[@driverjamescopeland]

With Ken's vehicles being so far from their production counterparts, I doubt he would've been the spawning point for any revival of the brand in the U.S... but I did look forward to what they would accomplish together. Ken will be sorely missed. His persona and charisma were a fresh take on motorsport, we had needed for decades. I just wish he'd been more involved with mainstream racing... but we all know, that just wasn't his style.

[@thumperjdm]

The quality of this video makes me think I should've had to go to a movie theatre, "Yes, I'd like two tickets to 'The Audi RS2' movie, thanks."

[@marcoskatsuragi]

This car makes me nostalgic not because it is an RS2, but because of the 5-cylinder engine with a single turbo. Here in Brazil we had a car called "Marea Turbo", which used the same mechanics as the European Fiat Coupe Turbo. And the sound is exactly the same! To this day, I dream of owning a newer RS3 just because of the five-cylinder sound.

[@energymc22]

Search for Halle 77 and turn on the subtitles - they have two episodes where they service and play about with a Marea Weekend Turbo imported to Germany and they love it, calling it the Brazilian Supra 👍

[@marcoskatsuragi]

@@energymc22 Thks! Checking right now. Brazilian Supra is a cool definition!

[@bapr3887]

​@@marcoskatsuragi In europe we had fiat coupe 2.0t 20v inline 5 too. Crap engine. In marea we had 2.0 20v N/A engine. Main problem with these were bad crankshaft bearing, weak oil pump.

[@marcoskatsuragi]

@@bapr3887 Yeah, the Turbo version also had its problems here. I had the aspirated version 2.0 5 in line 20V just like the European one and I didn't have many problems. In Brazil it generated 142 hp with 18 kgf. But in Brazil it was offered only between 1998 and 2000. In 2001 we had the best version I had, it was the 2.4 aspirated 20v 5 inline, which generated 160hp and 21 kgf. The advantage of the 2.4 engine was that the torque came at lower rpm, the engine was always full. By the way, many tuners around here use the head of the 2.4 version with all its lubrication components, the 2.0 block and a slightly larger turbo, as the 2.4 version does not have the lubrication problems of the 2.0.

[@AngelEditz123]

Yes, Audis were very popular in Italy (fwith those who could afford them) so Fiat decided to take a leaf of of their book and build a 5-cylinder. It did have the same characteristic wiffle, and with a turbo propelled the Fiat Coupé 20v Turbo all the way to 150 mph.

[@Manu-Official]

Glad the understeer was mentioned, because owning a newer version, I can confirm you can kick the back end and the Quattro complies happily. Slightly worn tyres actually makes it more fun. 0-30 is merely an instant in first gear. I once had a chance of following a tuned S2 and an owner who gave a short bit of a play for a few seconds. These things feel effortless despite the weight and engine overlapping the front.

[@aaronharris5275]

That Porsche Support Chapter could be told also very different. Porsche struggled a lot at that time. So they did the Job for Audi to get money, they also did a Seat 1.2 Ibiza engine. And some quick VW Vans. I think they also did some quick Mercedes E Class at that time. Later they did the Suspension Setup of the Smart, because Daimler couldn't figure out how to make that mini car driveable.

[@MiguelGarcia-vj7oo]

Oh right, the 0-30 acceleration 1.6 for the RS2, 1.7 for the F1 The horror! The shame Can't wait! Do wonder if Audis struggled to move past how good this was in its period or if it's one of those Audis that drives more special than what came after. The soundtrack will definitely deliver 👀 Edit: It did! Over the LFA makes sense. Half the cylinders but cool turbo noises and what sounds like a surprisingly willing package. Nice to see it bridges old and new so well. Interesting! Wonder now if a Coupe Quattro of the same era that's like 1/4 the price is anywhere near as engaging 😬

Yes. Pt. Reyes to Petaluma D st. is amazing. Particularly in March and April when the hills are all still green. They repaved lots of this making long sweeping corners stable from what was a rough patchwork. One drawback is it’s so beautiful with Arabian horses or wildlife it’s distracting driving. Blowing through full speed seems wasteful. I’m often out there and when you stop you are completely alone in total silence.

In Canada Audi, to sell anything after the 60 Minutes debacle, Audi had to offer a 3 year service plan where Audi paid for everything. My parents bought a 1986 Audi 4000 (it was a manual - it looked great and had the rear taillight to taillight reflector strip, to look like the turbo) and the car was spectacular, and all my parents paid for was gas for those 3 years. Oddly it was 2wd. I've since had a 2010 S4 and now own a S5 Sportback. The brand is the gold standard that other German manufactures aspire to in fit, finish, and performance.

Of course, that means they aren't quite as light on their feet, but make excellent sounds (with the right exhaust) and excellent cruisers.

This is one of the better videos capturing and presenting the distinctive 5cyl growl. Even through the muffling effect of the turbo induction, it still sounds rich and characterful. P.S. ....and only on my old phone, since my desktop (with _decent_ speakers) is cactus. 😕

[@nirfz]

You even incuded the Turracher Höhe! Cool! that's where they did the first winter testing of the quattro when all the other manufacturers were testing snow chains they managed to get up the steep incline without them. Always liked the 5cyl sounds! And what you said about driving it for yourself not for others, that is something i can fully understand! I think that is one of the appeals for these kind of vehicles. Some may call them Sleepers. I feel that way with my 13 year old E63. Apart from car enthusiasts people don't expect anything from it,to them it's just a big Mercedes (and as most are 4cyl Diesel models here, they suspect something like that), and i am happy with them not taking notice. In the 9 years i own it, i have never been pulled over by police not even when they check random traffic. It just doesn't look like someone making trouble. And it is fun to drive (to me) no matter if going spirited uphill a twisty road here in the alps in summer, or like 2 weeks ago: a little more cautios during snowfall on almost empty roads with 1-2 cm of slush. It makes me smile through steering feel engine noise and how it takes cornering and throttle.

[@billymania11]

Audi had humble beginnings but through hard work and making the most of what they had, Audi managed to earn their place with performance enthusiasts. I smile at their goofy 5 cylinder engine but the turbo makes up for any shortcomings. I'm team BMW (M2 here), but their RS stuff is pretty decent.
