Mario Kapeller’s Audi S3 was built to drag race by Team HST in Hargelsberg, Austria. In the engine bay is a turbocharged 3.0 L VR6 producing 1500 hp (1118 kW). The motor features HST’s billet block, forged internals, and large Garrett G55 turbocharger. The four-digit power is sent to all four slicks through a Kotouc 0A6 seven-speed sequential transmission and upgraded 4WD drivetrain. Drag Media UK recorded Mario and S3 attending L8-Night drag event in Germany where they achieved a 8.32 sec at 182 mph (292 km/h) quarter-mile.
