Audi took second place in the manufacturers championship its very first year. The Ingolstadt car company elected not to enter the endurance classics at Daytona and Sebring at the start of the year, but Han-Joachim Stuck was the dominant driver in the fourth race at Summit Point. He posted six individual wins, and partnered with Walter Rhrl for another. Stuck finished ahead of his team mate Hurley Haywood in third place in the final standings. With seven victories in 15 races, Audi established the term quattro as a symbol of quality in North America.
