Audi Politely Asks You Not To Destroy Your R8 [Please Don't Do That]

After Nissan's GT-R launch control issues the automaker decided to remove the system from the new 2010 model Godzilla. They should have just followed Audi's lead. The folks over at Inside Line have a long term Audi R8 in their fleet and noticed after using launch control the system asks in a polite manner to please pull over, you know, if it is convenient for you. Then the system completely stops you from doing it. All because they care.

Nissan GT-R Does 7:26.7 at the Nordschleife

Seems Nissan is on an unrelenting mission to make the R35 GT-R the fastest supercar in the world. Check out this video of their latest record lap done back in April at the Nurbugring. The driver is Toshio Suzuki and the laptime of 7:26.7 is simply outstanding. I wonder what Porsche will have to say about this one!
