evo: Audi R8 GT Vs R8 LMS

Posted 3rd August, 2011 in Audi, Motorsport, Videos | Leave a comment

evo magazine’s Henry Catchpole offers a treat for Audi fans here. First, he takes a look at the limited edition, hardcore 552 hp R8 GT model. Weighing 100kg less than the regular R8, the GT hits 62mph in 3.6 seconds, 124mph in 10.8 seconds and has a top speed of 199mph. However, if you need something a little more brutal, your only option is the stripped-out R8 LMS race car. A snip at € 300,000. Marino Franchitti takes Henry for a few laps around Blyton Park.
