    That video is awesome man! I really do not know much about those cars, how close are they to our cars with the obvious that they are way lighter.

    Spectacular. The lighting in the front wheels on some shots at night, is that the rotors being red hot?

    There are many OEM parts and the engine is a production R8 V10 engine.

    The Audi Sport iPhone app has some great info and content about the R8 Grand Am and the R8 LMS ultra. Should download it and check it out.

    Nice video by the way.

    Great results APR.
    You guys did well in the other classes too - sorry to hear about the one engine putting a rod thru the case.
