A very special Audi TT RS was back in action this weekend. The car of Matt
and Casey Close suffered a large crash earlier in 2012, but luckily the driver
pairing was unharmed and back on track this weekend. They competed at the Targa
High Country event, and they did not disappoint. The TT RS had a few upgrades which
included a new S-Tronic gearbox and a new livery.
The Close TT RS faces some formidable competition in the Targa series
which includes a Lamborghini, Nissan GTRs and a host of Porsche 911 cars. Despite
the though competition the TT RS armed with quattro and its five cylinder turbo
engine was able to finish second in this event. Below we have included the three
highlights videos, featuring the prologue and the two days of
competition.
