From the urq list: Targa Newfoundland "A2-ex-Group B" entry
Looks like Sprongls are up to something fun...

Interesting that they mention "Audi Canada" on their entry, considering the amount of support that Audi (US?) gave URQ25..
Also interesting: The car is showing as "A2-ex-Group B" car. (You can click on the picture in the link to get a bigger picture)
Perhaps a 'relative' of James car? (Even has Rod Hendricksen codriving!)<ul><li><a href="http://www.targanewfoundland.com/drivers/cars/2008/718/">http://www.targanewfoundland.com/drivers/cars/2008/718/</a</li></ul>

Sprongl's always had it in with Audi, how do you think they ended up with
Lehmann engine and boat load of spares for their rally efforts. Talk to Jouko he has few good stories up his sleeve.
The car has a US VIN, but enough factory parts to fool anyone.. unless the VIN was slapped on there to be able to registered it in US.
The car is on display (for last year and a half or so) at Mississauga Audi.
At the moment it has a 20vt motor in it, the Lehmann engine was in their S2 rally car.
Anyone know what happened with that hybrid?
I believe that they drove Shokan's A2 at Mt. Washington.

Hmmm.. I would argue that one. He is talented, but that hasn't helped him
to win with anything other than Audi.
Don't get me wrong, I have a lot of respect for his driving skill, just don't think he's that good.
Back in those days the Audi was the most powerful car out here (Canadian championship).
Once all the Evos and WRXs started showing up he had no chance but to jump ship.
I don't think he won any events since then (please correct me if I am wrong).
