baja touareg race VW Race Touareg 2 for the Baja Race

Looking at this “thing”, a VW Race Touareg 2, I think it’s one of the ugliest Touaregs I’ve seen. This 5.5l V12 that runs on clean diesel and develops 550hp, has a spaceframe-chassis with 75 cm of suspension travel. With all these RedBull colors and logos, the VW Race Touareg 2 is going to take part in the Annual Tecate SCORE Baja 1000 Race, this weekend. Driver Mark Miller and his navigator Ryan Arciero, have been the winners in last year’s Baja 500, so we’ll have to see if they’ll manage to get it this year, too. Would you drive such a thing on the streets? – via AutoBlog
