In the late 1990's, famous German automaker Audi decided to enhance their image for speed by developing a Grand Prix class Le Mans racecar. Led by Audi's Head of Sport Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich, their designers and engineers outdid themselves in developing the R8R. Its 3594 cubic centimeter V-8 engine provided the power. A revolutionary new design featured a long tail which both reduced drag and also hid the long diffuser, a modification made necessary by Grand Prix rules against having the diffuser extend beyond the car's body. Team Director Reinhold Joest put the cars fortunes in the hands of experienced drivers Frank Biela, Didier Theys and Emanuele Pirro. With only the most minor of problems, replacing a brake disc and exhaust pipe, they were able to drive the Audi to a 3rd place finish, averaging over 125 mph. for the 24-hour race. Using the same style car, Audi was then able to win the Grand Prix in 2000 and 2001. More information is available by clicking Audi die-cast metal car.
