...<font color="003366"> That would depend on the engine and gearbox installed in the R8.</font>

on the only launch engine available, the 425 hp V8, assuming an est. 2800 lb weight for the car, and with the only gearbox at launch, the manual 6 spd, i 'd venture to say 4.2 sec to 60 and a 1/4 mile in about 12. 5 secs.
