Default 87 5000 S Quattro Trans fluid ?

I am wondering about trans fluids. I run Redline Synthetic Fluids in my Nissan Sentra SE-R (auto cross/track car) and 99 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS-T (Summer Daily Driver) but I have had my audi for over a year now and have had all the fluids changed by my independent mechanic (Redline automotive Richland Washington) but I still like useig Redline Synthetics in my cars I love the stuff as it makes the shiftig action allot smoother. My ? is dose anybody know what redline fluid to run in the trans and rear differential? I like the light duty shckproof in my sentra and would like the extra protection in my audi as I would like to go and do a rally cross in the car and want to have the best protection for the gears and such when I do.

I am not rally rallying the car. I am just going to attend a rally cross (like autocross) on a closed airfield in spokane washington. It is going to be a snow and mud covered course, about 2-4 min long.
