Check out the link. Audi won the 12 Hours of Sebring with their R10 TDI 650hp diesel powerhouse. Can't wait for Le Mans in June. It'll be history in the making.

Here's another link to the story. Great stuff and it seems to have a universal impact. Several websites are covering it.

im glad that someone finally did it. it was the quietest prototype, the cleanest burning one to. it had a filter that wasn't required by the rules that removed all the black smoke. the cars were developing 850lbs of torque so if the truck broke down they could just pull the race car out and tow the trailer.

mitsubishi basically own dakar now. i don't think they'll be pushed off the top spot anytime soon.
