I absolutely love it. Love the look of the F1-influenced design. We should all pitch in and buy one!

Road Atlanta as well - the Petit Le Mans is on the 2011 Intercontinental Le Mans Cup Series I believe.

No, it's not coming to Sebring unfortunately. At Sebring only the R15+ will be their. Maybe Audi will have a little surprise and bring it there though. Most likely not, but you never know.

The R18 will be at Sebring, but it will be locked up in hiding. It's most likely going to run a lot of tests after the 12 hours before the team heads back to Germany.

The R18 will also be tested at Homestead very soon

Looks friggin' evil!

What's the power on this thing?

I'm not familiar with the new LMP1 power & weight rules...

No power figures have been announced yet or details about the engine. All we know is it's a 3.7 V6 TDI with most likely a VTG turbo setup. Some are saying it's one turbo, others are saying twin turbo

Would love to see the drivers view from that thing.

There must be huge blindspots with those wheel arches.
