Need for Speed: World
The Audi TT RS was added to Need for Speed: World on February 2, 2011 as a tier 2 vehicle. Since August 22, 2012, it has been featured as a C class vehicle.
The acceleration of the TT RS is among the best compared to the rest of the C class. It does however come at the expense of a unresponsive handling, which is due to the heavy mass of the vehicle. The car has a good nitrous boost and can reach a top speed of 160 mph (258 km/h).
