R.I.P clutches and drivetrains. My pants are soaked after watching these big horsepower Audi Quattro launches. Those squats, two step and compressed suspension is so satisfying!
Hard launches take their toll on all transmissions, but all-wheel drive cars fare the worst. This is because AWD cars often have more grip than power. For example, it’s possible to perform full-throttle launches in an Audi Quattro with minimal wheel-spin. So unlike an M3, the tyres aren’t the weakest link. This leaves the transmission to bare the brunt of a hard launch. As a result, we don’t recommend full-throttle launches unless your bank account is healthy.
