Walter Rohrl tries out Audi's 600bhp S1 quattro Rallycross race car

While most of us are busy with New Year celebrations, the people at Team EKS RX Audi has invited Rally Legend Walter Rohrl to have a go at their rally race car - an Audi S1 quattro that competed in the 2014 FIA World Rallycross Championship. The owner of the motorsports team (who is also a rally driver), Mattias Ekstrom, has also decided to join Rohrl around the dirt track. 

Under the hood of the Audi S1 EKS RX is a 2.0-litre unit that delivers 600-odd horses to the ground via all four wheels, launching the puny hatchback from 0 to 100km/h in just 2.0 seconds (in the dirt).
