The Audi R8R was a prototype built for the 1999 LeMans competition. It was powered by a 3.6 liter V8. It didn't quite have the power of the winning BMW V12 but finished a respectable 3rd.

Maisto did an excellent job on all their GT Racing models.Ā  I have this one & the 2000 Le Mans winning car, along with the crazy "Crocodile" livery.

The #3 Champion Racing is the 2005 Le Mans winner by Spark.Ā
