We appreciate all the love!!! Feel free to ask any question ill be happy to answer as I can!

Unreal!! Congratulations and thank you for bringing back this car to life. This something you literally would expect out of a wild video game lol The 5.2 TT V10 is like ever lasting music to anybody’s ears easily top 10 best sounding engines of all time.

The American definition of "street legal" is so broad, I'm left wondering wether it's even possible for a vehicle to be illegal on the road in the USA... 😅

I met the owner, looked at the car and was on track with it in my 911 Turbo at Pocono. Super cool guy and wicked car in person. I can’t wait to see what it does turned all the way up.

What a kickass way to give a second life to this once scrapyard-bound R8

We Need:
Hoonicorn 1400hp VS Modified R8 1500hp!!!

It would be awesome with a functional wing! It would fit the body lines and help put that power down.

Love that this is filmed in my hometown. Kent Island represent!

[derekbader]

Well it'd be cool to kart it out more, figure out the launch and put it up against Leroy that's for sure! Haha, nice ride!

[FChuckT]

Would love to see them swap in a DCT (S-Tronic) from the 2015+ model. Probably ridiculously expensive but just an immediate upgrade IMO. Sweet ride for sure!

I build motorcycles. And when I build fenders I do it one of two ways depending on the style. I use either industrial trailer fenders or spun steel hoops. I cut the centers out of them and either ad or subtract metal to match the exact width of the tire. Those fenders look like they were made with spun steal hoops. That's why the top is rounded. In the pictures when they were in raw metal you can see the seem running down the center. So they were made the same way I do them. So if you have a good fabricator and sheet metal guy you are never limited to the widths they have in the bike catalogues. You can modify them and make them as wide as you want.

My man Dalton on that racing channel!!

So would this be faster with body panels? I'm sure it weighs less but is it enough to compensate for the loss of aerodynamics?

[usersam]

I was fortunate enough to sit in this car and talk to one of the guys from Lee C Parts. It is one hell of a machine and the turbos are massive

[loganj.]

Kent narrows bridge!!!....my home town of Kent Island. That bridge has had some of the best meets ever and some of the most insane cars. A friend of mine John Klohk has brought alot of them there aswell

[URSoDeadMe]

You gotta love that Audi sound when it's revd

[tylercarlson]

Crazy to drive an R8 without the body, great looking car stock IMO. Probably a blast to drive as a go-cart though

[juniorcruz]

Is it possible to put a 02 Acura rsx base model vtech engine in the rear of any body frame to build my own car similar to this build but not out body.?.

[stickmanutilities]

Skeleton R8 hell yea, can't wait to see more of these build with a UGR lambo or, Calvo Viper

[gavinstrange]
