I'm not trying to sound mean but the highway roll racing is what 16-20 year old kids and guys with penis complexes do over here in the states. If you want to really feel like you can beat an R8, build a car that can beat one around a track.
if I wanted one I would by one if I lose I still have fun....if I win I still have fun, it's all in fun.

I'am talking about drag racing on a closed course, not about roll on a highway.

X2 this is the dumbest thread here. The r8 is a MUCH nicer car in any iteration.

I've raced a tuned v10 r8 (575hp) at the airstrip event, and was pulling it comfortably until i blew my radiator hose. I'm sure i would have kept pulling as my 4-5 gears are just as strong, if not stronger than my 3rd. My buddy has a v10 r8, i might set up a run with him just for the sake of this thread.

All my 4th and 5th feel like with E85 is clutch slippage and tears

~$2500 ro so for VTT. Don't know about RB. That's just the snails.
I leave supercars alone. R8 V10 has the lambo motor.
But then I'm not FBO because I'm still under warranty.
