LEMANS: Inside The Audi R18
http://auto-racing.speedtv.com/artic...-the-audi-r18/
Oh my!! R18 not going to be at Sebring, so maybe I will hold off and go to Petit Le Mans instead . . . Christmas came two weeks early for sports car fans when Audi revealed the R18, its new-for-2011 Le Mans racer, and even with just a cursory glance, the new coupe looks like a major step forward for the German marque. http://cache-02.gawkerassets.com/ass...8_proto_02.jpg http://cache-04.gawkerassets.com/ass...roto_07_02.jpg http://cache-04.gawkerassets.com/ass...8_proto_06.jpg |
Dear Lord that is an ugly car. The FIA needs to ban vertical fins, or at least limit them. yeeesh,

Different strokes, man. To me, LMP hasn't had a good looking car since Panoz left.

I loved the R15, but this aside from directly in front of it looks bloody awful. I can't stand these vertical fins, the look astoundingly rediculous

Which Panoz? The Roadster or the "Batmobile?"
The batmobile had a ton of style, but the reliability problems and lack of cooling drowned it. The Roadster had style and won some races. http://www.mulsannescorner.com/Panoz-GC8.jpg |

Best Panoz was the roadster.
