Default Something is wrong! The time is too slow. R8 time at the "Ring"...

8:04 is way too slow. I don't have the time right now to take a look at the video (too busy). Can someone comment on it.<ul><li><a href="http://www.sportauto-online.de/aktuell_U_sport/on-line/hxcms_article_504922_14652.hbs">http://www.sportauto-online.de/aktuell_U_sport/on-line/hxcms_article_504922_14652.hbs</a</li></ul>

Default Driving looks a little lazy...

Sometimes he's not even looking out the windhield. And that guy's a jackass to be driving like that without a helmet.

Default something was wrong!

I have heard unoffical news but from a reliable source, that there was something wrong with the vehicle used on the testing day. The R8 used aparently did not deliver the promised power. so hopefully they will re do the test and have a better time<ul><li><a href="http://www.audi-r8help.com">http://www.audi-r8help.com</a</li></ul>

Default He's one of the best and most consistant drivers out there on the 'ring. He knows what he's doing.

And it's his choice not to wear a helmet. You don't have to agree with it, but I wouldn't call him a jackass for it.

It is considered a public toll road, not a racetrack.
