Default What does ABT mean?

Saw a black A4 today with an ABT badge on the front grill. Anyone know the secret?

Default Uhh.....Abt is their family name, or surname.

If you catch any pics of the brothers' cars, you'll see the driver's name on the rear window (eg. Christian Abt)

Close, Abt is essentially German for Abbot, but their name is Abt.
