there bad ass in every way they produce more power , run longer and smoother. it also a camera going along at 200mph so the sound quality isnt the greatest. but i love watching these audis race,there amazing!
keep in mind that top two card in LMP1 class are diesel. and the other thing is that they don't want to over stress the engines since they have to pretty much be able to run for at least 24hours at maximum torture. i'm sure if someone try t drive lancer evo on this track, it would spit the engine out after a few hours :)
Yep. Back in the early 70's with the Porsche 917s and the Ferrari 512s, they would top out at 230mph down the Mulsanne straight. But now the cars are different - they do about 195-200mph tops.
Nice the advertisment of Xbox 360 and Forza Motorsport 2 on Puegeot 908, haha! Nice video... Now, you can download the Peugeot 908 and in the game Forza 2!!!
The raw spirit of racing a car for 24 hours and having to actually "drive" it is all but lost with so much advanced technology in the cars of today. Look what has happened to F1 with traction control, semi auto, launch control. Drivers are much more technically minded now agreed, but the old days of a mechanical gear shifter, heavy clutch, fading brakes and guts are but a memory for some ofd us. maybe thats why we still compete in historics.
i think the advanteges of a closed cockpit are better aerodynamics and better chassie stability, the disadwantage is a little bit more weight. i think audi didnt done that because it can be because ist a diesel =)
im new to le mans racing i live in the US and all we get here is nascar and indy which is ok but this is much better. whats the advatages of a closed cockpit in the 908 and disadvantages? why havent audi done the closed cockpit?
those audi's are beasts
I really enjoy watching a race with such a view :)
I love how it takes the guy a full minute of talking just to tell you that he's going to stop talking.
DIESL power its about time . thx for the video that audi TDI Diesl is verry nice .
yep that was the same when they came to mosport in the alms series. I love Mosport and I love le mans prototypes.
you're right man... nothing like late 80s days... :(
This track is : Le Mans 24h - FRANCE
for "Les 24h du Mans"
Actually, in 1970 the 917 ran 248mph. Close enough to your comment, but it topped out at 250mph.

keep in mind that they hit 200 still with the mulsanne chicanes
I like seeing the Forza sticker on the inside of the car.

I'd say Porsche. But Audi is making history as we speak.

If this was nascar they would bring out the little boom box symbol and say, 'its time to crank it up!' =P

I wish i could drive one of these to work everyday...
ok 2008 Le Mans is gonna be in a lil bit than 2 months, what channel(s) can i watch this on since ive heard about this sport about 10 months ago
im new to le mans racing i live in the US and all we get here is nascar and indy which is ok but this is much better. whats the advatages of a closed cockpit in the 908 and disadvantages? why havent audi done the closed cockpit?
what about if ur in the US do these channels apply as well?
why does it say Audi R10 Peugeot 908, it is an Audi R10 TDI
ohyeah...maybe I should watch the whole vid next time....lol
how I can watch le mans when cars sounds like broken ford fiesta 1.0
Video sound is not synched properly...
from tv, on board videos from le mans look HELLOFALOT faster than f1.
1100 Nm!
This is like sex inside a cockpit for crying out loud, R10 Tdi you gotta be kidding me and this exactly why Audi is the mother of them all.
@r6ixxerz agreed.
TORQUE!
But the 908 is still a diesel too, but still audi is about cornering, peugoet is about top speed.
Go Audi!
image if f1 vs audi r10
Who going win
5 forward gears
i didnt know that tha peugeot is a disel. cool i like petrols more but the disels are obviously better in lemans.
@soulsaflame4135 lol even off roading, audi owned the competition! and got banned for being too good!
Yes !! bad :((
LOL
in sprints i think the f1 will win but at straight line the audi
also for 24 hours the f1 will fail
sounds like a tractor...
