    I've done the math, gang.


    (2 x Audi R15) + (2 x Peugeot 908) + (2 x Acura ARX02a) = Best Sebring evar!

    I wonder if the switch from V12 to V10 means we might see a road going version of that engine in the R8/Gallardo

    How is it that Pete "Orosz u didn't" Orosz keeps posting such awesomeness on Jalopnik yet he doesn't even get a mention in the sidebar? Just more of Roy's Detroit bias?


    Come on Ray, at least give him "Yurp Racin' Guy" or something.

    The open mouth and the gills on the side of the new shark of Audi show that they will eat all the competition again.

    I'm sure that I'm just ignorant about such things but - Are those headrests designed for a conehead?

    I predict a severe shortage of black Audi's is about to materialize. That is one buttoned down racer. Peugot and Aston have their work cut out for them this year. This should be great.

    does anyone else in LeMans have a diesel racer? BMW? Mercedes? ANYBODY???


    No? oh well, another win for Audi then... i simply love the last picture, it's just so freaking awesome. words cannot describe the sheer awesomeness of its awesomeness.

    I'm patiently waiting for Audi to be the first team to win Le Mans towing a semi-trailer.


    Arnage and round, loaded up and truckin'

    Ah we gonna do what they say can't be done

    We've got a long way to go, and a short time to get there

    On Mulsanne eastbound, just watch our Audi run.

    It's no secret that I'm not a huge Audi fan but there's no denying that this is just flat out jaw-dropping. Just one more reason to watch Le Mans this year!

    If she's smart she'll wait for you to go full trance and start making "suggestions".

    @engineerd thinks cannoli is deserving of a star:


    Mine is, mildly, trained. She knows better than to bother me when I'm watching something on TV. I don't watch much TV though so when it's on it's something I really want to see.
    But when I'm on my computer, on Jalopnik, that's another story. The chore list just comes out of nowhere.

    @aSoundofSleep loves his cute little Roy-Roy!: I get the same thing. "Are you on the computer again? Get off Jalopnik."


    I'm incredibly sad Audi won't be at Petit Le Mans this year, as that is the only ALMS race I'd be able to attend. I was really looking forward to seeing this car in person.

    I think I'd sell a limb for the chance to drive one of these for a few hot laps.


    Assuming, of course, said limb wasn't necessary to drive the car. Then, well, you know.

    You just said that you would sell a limb. You didn't specify whose limb it is...


    After all, the boy only needs his throwing arm to pitch, right?
