The Audi R8 is getting even faster.
Audi Sport has developed a racing version of the mid-engine supercar that will conform to the production-based FIA GT3 regulations, and it is to be available in Europe in fall 2009. Plans for bringing it to the United States are unclear, but a spokesman said that hasn’t been ruled out.
The car will pump out more than 500 hp, up considerably from the street car’s 420 hp. It also gets a giant wing on the back and front-end modifications to generate more downforce on the track.
