Re: Audi R8 - Winner Le Mans 2001

One of my favourite racers of modern times.
Does anyone know if another manufacturer produced this car? I thought Revell made one. I would like an R8 to go with the R10 I made but not ready to spend for this kit.

Excellent! Will enjoy watching this.

Several years ago I tried to build their LM 2000 kit during the race weekend. I didn't quite make it but had a lot of fun trying

My memories of the kit are very good.

Looking great so far. Did the 2000 winner a few years ago and it went together really well. Wish LMM would get back to making kits again.

Re: Audi R8 - Winner Le Mans 2001

Thanks for your messages!

@Specie: I really don't know if there are other manufacturers for this model.

I applied the carbon fiber decal in the front wing but don't know if it must be semi-gloss or gloss. I looked at many pictures but don't have a conclusion. Any help?

Right now it's semi-gloss

Re: Audi R8 - Winner Le Mans 2001

really nice work denilson. Time ago I get the revell audi r8 and was too disappointing.....caude the model didnt looked at all like an r8 ...
Try assembly it was also an hell,with mistakes in istructions.

This resin one is absolutely much nicer and detailed.cant wait to see it completed.
