Close Encounter with the Audi R8

And no, the ride doesn’t come cheap. It’ll set you back by Rs 1 lakh for a full-day schedule at Buddh International Circuit. That’ll include briefing, slalom runs and lapping the circuit a few times till you get your racing lines in place.

That should give you a taste of the 5.2-litre, V10 engine being pushed to its limits on the straights, and the quattro keeping you from spinning out around bends if you go in a little too hot.
