The Audi R8C was a racing car designed by Tony Southgate. It raced only at the 24h of Le Mans in 1999.
The car featured a monocoque carbon fibre chassis, a carbon fibre body and a 3595cc twin-turbocharged V8 engine. It had a maximum speed of 349 km/h.
The number 10 Audi was driven by an all-English team with James Weaver, Andy Wallace and Perry McCarthy. James Weaver said that at a certain point during race, the underdeveloped R8C had turned into one of the best cars he ever drove. Gearbox troubles caused the retirement of car number 10.
In the years which followed, Audi devoted its energies to the open cockpit version of the R8. In turn, the R8C became the design base for the Bentley Exp Speed 8, who won the Le Mans 24 Hours in 2003.
