Audi R8 GT3 spied testing

[fukwaynecampaign2]

that turbo makes it sound like a fighter jet lifting off.

[Fongfongmc]

that wing is ridiculous

must be a total animal to neccesitate that kind of downforce

[Imahappylittlewhore]

well wouldn´t be to bad if it was now would it ?

[GhostRiot]

@Fongfongmc Its a GT3 spec race car not a road car... Its not about aesthetics its about performance. I'm pretty sure the engineers at Audi know what their doing.

[Fongfongmc]

quite aware of that thanks

[Fongfongmc]

@GhostRiot no shit dickhead. i wasnt criticising it it was just an observation

[GhostRiot]

@Fongfongmc

Oh, cool story then.

[09javcar]

It looks like they riced the shit out of the R8 with that huge as wing. LOL look awesome but the wing kind of kills it. Make the wing smaller and it'd look WAY better.

[Imahappylittlewhore]

it´s not about looks

[rallymaniac92]

are you stupid or something? this is a racecar! the wing generates downforce to stick the car to the road so it can go faster around corners. learn your shit... this is racing

[raazinos]

Does this car drive with quattro?

[dope132]

no...

[monkeyboy866]

GT3 spec prohibits AWD or smart wheel drive.

500+ HP

[SatanicTerror]

550 HP!!

[stoneeh]

and if you're tired, you can just roll out your sleeping bag and make yourself comfortable on the rear wing

[breitling911]

the gearbox is noisy

[standardwolfsburg]

racing sequential gearboxes are always noisy

[themonth]

@ standardwolfsburg

because they're spur-toothed ;-)

[standardwolfsburg]

instead of helical? why would spur-toothed gears make that much more noise over helical?

[themonth]

because these teeth knocking together instead the rolling up move from the standart gearbox with helical-tooth.

the spur-toothed gearbox has less lost of power and are more solid.

The standart gearbox has there less of noise production (for this reason more comfort for series-production).

By way of example, take notice at the reverse gear of, if you own one, your car(manuell)...spur-toothed ;-).

This knocking movement produce a frequency, that is the noise...this whining.

[standardwolfsburg]

ahhhhh! interesting...makes sense too

my golf is manual and i've always wondered why it whined when i reveresed...

thanks! :P

[themonth]

you're welcome ;-)
