Reiger Audi R8This new styling aero kit features a front spoiler, side skirts, rear skirt, diffuser, rear wing, fog lights, and exhaust tips. It can be ordered from the Rieger online shop and will give the V8 Audi R8 a similar R8 V10 look. The car also received suspension tuning with an adjustable kit to drop it on the 20 or 21-inch rims.
Project Kahn Audi R8Kahn lowers the suspension and slaps on 20' F1-X rims made of lightweight carbon fiber.
Heffner Performance Audi R8 Twin Turbo Heffner's not bothered with much in the way of spoilers and trinketry, but it has gone ABSOLUTELY MENTAL on the engine. The 5.2-litre V10's fitted with a twin-Garrett-turbo setup running 6psi of boost, which wrings 725bhp out of the original engine.
PPI GTR-10 Limited Edition Audi R8The gold striping and look-at-me wing dangle it precariously on the edge of acceptability, but we'll let off the PPI GTR-10 on account of its 601bhp. The V10 gets a roof-mounted air intake, vented liftgate glass, a free-flow exhaust system and remap job. Cool!
Stassis Challenge Extreme Edition A hot new intake manifold, barky exhaust system and clever ECU software boosts power by 28% to 540bhp. It also gets lowered suspension, wide 20-inch alloys, uprated brakes and a stealthy satin finish.
Wheelsandmore Audi R8 V10
It's got a special height-adjustable racing coilover suspension setup, stainless exhaust and remap job, which boosts power to 592bhp. It also looks v cool...and evil!
Motoren Technik Mayer Audi R8 V10The V10's been fiddled to produce 580bhp, there's a funky new exhaust, downforce-fond body accoutrements, lightweight wheels and, of course, bright green paint. Yes it's shouty and gauche, but that's what an R8's all about, right?

On the right trackThis year’s race will mark the first time that Silverstone’s new £27 million pit and paddock complex has been used for a major international event. Construction of the new facilities started in April 2010 and it has been built on the opposite side of the track to the old facilities.
This means that the start/finish straight will now be along hangar straight where Nigel Mansell famously passed his team-mate Nelson Piquet in the F1 race there in 1987. The new facilities have been completed ahead of schedule and were hailed as “fantastic” by Red Bull boss Christian Horner during the launch ceremony.
A great eventThe 2010 championship was dominated by Yamaha’s Jorge Lorenzo after his closest challenger, his team-mate Valentino Rossi, broke his leg early in the season. However, in 2011 the Honda team has made huge strides which have actually given their lead riders Casey Stoner and Dani Pedrosa a pace advantage in the early races of the season. This has set the scene for a fascinating three way championship battle.
Slightly further down the field, fans will be treated to the fantastic spectacle of the now recovered nine times world champion Valentino Rossi who has joined the ailing Ducati team. Expect fireworks at Silverstone as the legendary Rossi battles against the odds in his attempts to beat the stronger teams.
On top of this, British fans will have eight home grown riders taking part in this years event in the variously categories. The most high profile of these is former British Superbike race winner Cal Crutchlow, who is contesting the 2011 season for the Monster Yamaha Tech 3. He has acquainted himself well so far and will be hoping for more points on home soil. It’s set to be a fantastic battle, so make sure you don’t miss out.
