It appears in Forza Motorsport (2005).
Synopsis[]
The R8, one of the most dominant endurance racers ever, is a redevelopment of the R8R that Audi competed at the 1999 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. A co-development between Audi Motorsport, Joest Racing, and Dallara, the R8 features a similar open cockpit design and the same 3.6L twin-turbocharged V8 from its predecessor, putting out 610 hp (455 kW) and 516 ft·lb (700 N·m). The car would make its debut at the 2000 12 Hours of Sebring, but would then go back to Europe for more testing in preparation for Le Mans, leaving the R8R to compete in its place. The car would compete in both the LMP900 and LMP1 classes until 2005 across a variety of endurance series, winning at least one series every single year it competed. It would then serve a similar role to the R8R during 2006, where it stood in for its successor, the R10 TDI, while that car prepped for Le Mans.[1]
The #38 competed in the North American rounds of the 2001 American Le Mans Series (ALMS) season. Driven mainly by Andy Wallace, Dorsey Schroeder would join him for the first 2 rounds, being replaced by Johnny Herbert for the post Europe rounds, while Ralf Kelleners would be the third driver at Sebring. The car would finish on the podium 4 times with a best finish of 2nd at the penultimate round of the season at Laguna Seca. This would allow the team to finish 3rd in the teams' championship behind the Audi Sport North America team and Panoz.[2]
