Default "Trunk kit" for TT?

Has Audi authorized a "trunk kit" for owners that want to race their cars in the SCCA?

Is anyone offering a easy to bolt-on suspension kit? Any recommendations based on actual use?

Default Highly unlikely....

SCCA would have to authorize it, based on Audi's input....BUT....it won't happen.

Trunk kits are developed for Showroom Stock classes in SCCA Club Racing. TT is turbocharged in all variants (turbo motors are the only choices, right ?). Turbocharged cars aren't allowed in SCCA Club Racing....so....no trunk kit.

Lots of tuners have suspension kits for the Audi's - you probably won't have trouble finding stuff for the TT soon.

Default Well...

The TT is only offered in turbo, and, even worse, it's turbo/4wd (which, as per our discussion some time ago, is the kiss of death for U.S. racing).

But, strangely enough, there are "class spec" kits available from Abt to "bring the TT in line with sports class specs".

I don't know what sports class specs are, but they could be anything from super touring to club road gp to GT from the description...

There is a venue where turbocharged/all wheel drive cars can compete. NASA is where. There are a bunch of series to play in..... www.nasaproracing.com<p>Michael Sheridan Williams
