peugeot, do they build race cars? :shock:

ok, so this was at least something to comfort audi in their grief with the nürburgring 24 hours race 2010 disaster. it was a nightmare for a company that everyday claims it will have passed bmw by 2015 in every aspects of cars. way to go, audi :lol:

ever checked how they did at nürburgring 2010 with their fleet of r8, a4, tt you name it :lol: did they have some engine problems and tech issues? :lol: this is where the real competition is at. who talks about le mans with just a few different car makes and competitors like peugeot? ever seen a peugeot in the usa? at least in germany no one cares for that series. it is f1 and touring cars.

thanks man, no need to get me a new car, already got a very fast and reliable one :D
i had a golf II gt and a audi 80 when i was younger. good for starters or learning to drive.
later on i wanted something real. which means to me an inline six and rear wheel drive. ever seen a
race car with front wheel drive like audi or vw :lol:

I hate to side with germanrc10gt, as we have had our differences in the past, but I do think that out of Germany the best brand is BMW! Note: I said out of Germany!

Yes, but rear wheel drive is for real drivers! Just like a 2WD buggy is for "real" drivers! Not that gay pansy ass 1/8 buggy/truggy crap. :P Any monkey can drive one of those!
