R8 LMS GT3 "customer demo"

[willyjp]

Sounds like Mattias Ekstrom did a little selling for Audi "customer racing"......

Brilliant performance: Audi factory driver Mattias Ekström gave rides to a group of local racing drivers in an Audi R8 LMS on Sunday in his Swedish homeland. Around the Mantorp Park race track the invited guests were impressed by the potential of the customer racing race car. In addition to the existing customers Erik Behrens and Jan Brunstedt fifteen potential buyers were able to convince themselves of the qualities of the R8 LMS. During the afternoon they were all allowed to test themselves the powerful 520 hp GT3 sportscar resplendent in the colors of the 24-hours Spa race winning car. (from the Audi Media Center)

Anyone know what Audi gets for a race prepped LMS? And what their "season fee" is for maintenance? (since most of those "customer cars" usually come w. factory team maint.)

I was told 400K and that includes "spares" - what that entails, I don't know.
