A Proven Winner
Originally built by the legendary John Sleath Race Cars, this Audi 80 has a storied history in UK drag racing. The car set a personal best of 7.67 seconds at 192 mph — numbers that speak to its raw potential.
The car's crowning achievement came at the FIA European Finals 2009, where it took the win with an impressive 7.94s at 190 mph. The following year in 2010, it qualified as top qualifier with a blistering 7.73 second pass.
Now, this proven winner is undergoing a full 25.1 unlimited rebuild at Pro Race Engineering, Essex. Project Hardline will take this heritage machine to the next level.
