The 2011 Audi #4 Forza Motorsport R10 TDI is an LMP1 sports prototype car by Audi.
It appears in Forza Motorsport 4.
Synopsis[]
Due to ever increasing weight and air restrictor penalties now starting to put the massively successful Audi R8 on pace with its other LMP1 competitors, Audi realized they needed a complete overhaul of the car to stay one step ahead of the competition. Thus the R10 TDI was born. Following a similar pattern to the R8, the car would make its debut at the 2006 12 Hours of Sebring, before returning to Europe for Le Mans preparation with its predecessor filling in for it. While not quite as dominant as the R8, the factory teams would win every single major series/event they entered. This factory effort would also not last as long, only competing for 3 years from 2006 to 2008, with its successor, the Audi R15 TDI debuting the following year. Unlike like the previous two iterations, no R10s would serve as stand-ins for the R15 and would instead be handed off to Kolles Racing to be run as private efforts until 2010.
With more and more of the European car market consisting of diesel powered cars, it was decided that this new car should be diesel-powered, as the technology developed within it could potentially be carried over into a road car just like had been done with the FSI system that was first used on the R8, before finding its way into regular passenger vehicles. The Audi Sport team also believed that the new car could show the sportiness of diesel engines and offset the negative view of them. The team eventually settled on a 5.5L twin-turbocharged V12 engine for the car, with the added weight of the 4 extra cylinders compared to the V8 of the R8 being offset by a bodywork now made of carbon fiber.[1]
The #4 livery is a fictional livery that was made specifically for Forza Motorsport 4. All R10s were retired by the end of the 2010 season, with their replacement having debuted a year earlier in 2009. The #2 and #8 are currently stored at Audi Tradition, a storage facility near Audi's headquarters in Ingolstadt.[2]
