    R8 gt3

    "Audi’s motorsport division has announced plans to launch a 500hp-plus (373kW) version of the R8 for use in next year’s GT3 series. The new car has been designed for private customer teams and fully conforms to the production-based GT3 regulations, which means they will be allowable in numerous national and international competitions..."





    ALMS should get really interesting with the M3 and now this R8.

    EDIT: Its not entirely clear if it will be allowed in the ALMS series now that I read some more. Although there are some modified GT3 spec Aston's racing in ALMS, so there's hope.

    As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
    You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.

            As much as I hate Audi's (after having to work on them..) I cannot wait to see one of those in the paddock!

                I really hope I get invited to do another drift demo at the next St.Petersburg ALMS/Indy GP to see this thing in person. :D

                    If it does make it to ALMS, I wonder if it would be in GT2 or GT1.

                      looks like it would be picking a fight with the M3...and I think thats going into GT2 with the Flying Lizards GT3 RS's and the Ferraris..
