Audi Quattro S1 during record run at Pikes Peak in 1987. Audi photo.
By Bruce Troxell – National Sports Car Examiner
Audi and champion driver Walter Rörhl will return to the 90th running of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb on July 8, 2012 with the Audi Quattro S1 that he drove 25 years ago to set a then-new record of 10 minutes and 47.85 seconds up the 12.42 mile, 156 turn, gravel course. The course has since been fully paved and faster times have been recorded, but Walter’s record on gravel is unsurpassed.
On July 11, 1987, Rörhl and the Quattro S1 started next to last just ahead of fastest qualifier Ari Vatanen in a Peugeot. A driver only gets one chance to race up the mountain and the calm and collected Rörhl made the most of his opportunity, pushing the Audi into sixth gear four times and hitting a top speed of 121.79 mph on the fastest part of the course. He beat rival Vatanen by almost seven seconds.
