Default Anyone framiliar with a Sprongl?

I'm watching a show on the Speed Channel about a Targa race or something. Anyway, they keep showing shots of a Canadian named Sprongl racing a Urquattro. Nice looking car!

Default The Sprongl Lads..

Yes, the Sprongls: Frank and Dan..

They had been rallying Audis in the Canadian rally scene for years, and have run Four Star Motorsports for years.

They then switched to other brands of car when their Audi was geeting rather 'long in tooth'.

They have run a Cosworth Escort, have run Suzuki Switfs for Suzuki, and often run their own Mitsu..

Go to Four Star's website..
http://www.fourstarmotorsports.com/
Scroll down a bit, and they have some news about the Urq & their Targa adventures.

You can buy the entire 2008 event DVD for $25 CDN. (approx $20 USD): http://www.targanewfoundland.com/fan...007-targa-dvd/
