kebabman 0 Posted February 15, 2006 5.5L bi-turbo V12 Diesel, 650bhp 1100Nm. Pretty impressive bit of kit, apparently can do 2-3 laps more per tank than it's competitors, which is a lot in a 24hour race! Oh and check out the noise! 8) http://www.audi.com/audi/com/en1/experi ... t/r10.html Video: http://web.rollins.edu/~jspitzer/r10clip1.mov Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
