    Christof klausner setup?

    I'm always amazed watching the clips posted of Christof in his wildly sideways URQ and it got me curious as to see if anyone here knows much about the power, drivetrain and suspension setup he's currently running.
    Have to hand it to the guy, he can drive a Quattro

      From having a look at it he is either using a torsen or plated centre diff so he can use the handbrake. It also looks to be running quite soft suspension and I would guess a big rear anti roll bar to help it over steer. Also if you notice he like Beres use narrow tyres often gravel tyres so they have little grip.

        I had a feeling he might have been running very hard profile tyres or wets as it's nice and loose.
        Would love to spectate on one of his stages
        Got to give it to the guy, he's not afraid of getting a few battle scars on it

              Wish I could drive half as well as that chap - he is definitely committed to the cause - admiring a few things especially on the latest video

                Was going to say why use skinny, what look like road tyres on a tarmac event like that?
