Spy Shots: Audi R8 ClubSport heads to the ‘Ring 21
Apr

Filed under: , , , ,

Audi R8 ClubSport – Click above for high-res image gallery

Within the next two years, Audi plans to have five different variants of the R8 in production: V8- and V10-powered coupes and convertibles, and one harder-core variant tuned to play as well on the track as it does on the road. This newest, lightweight model – likely carrying either a ClubSport (CS) or GT badge – has been undergoing testing in Germany this week, and beyond the sinister matte-black paint scheme (with matching fuel door), there are a few choice modifications to the body to set it apart from its standard siblings.

The front fascia has been lowered slightly with the addition of a new splitter and reshaped winglets, while out back you’ll notice the larger, round exhaust outlets, restyled rear bumper with new air outlets aft of the wheels and that shapely fixed rear wing. The rolling stock appears to have grown a bit and larger carbon ceramic brakes are fitted at all four corners.

It’s likely that Audi is using a fair amount of carbon fiber bodywork to bring the ClubSport’s curbweight down by a couple hundred pounds, and judging by the side-sill intakes, a V10 – possibly mated to a new dual-clutch gearbox – remains mounted amidships. Given the current pace of development, we’d suspect Audi plans to unveil its latest R8 project this year, possibly at the Paris Motor Show in the fall.

5 Tips to Protect Yourself While Riding a Motorcycle 21
Apr

Choosing to ride a motorcycle, as opposed to a large SUV or truck, means that you have a higher risk of being seriously injured in an auto accident. Because you don’t have the protective shell of a major automobile surrounding you, your body is more exposed to a massive impact. In studies directed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, it was found that one’s head and extremities are the most commonly injured areas in an accident. However, there are many things you can do to protect your body in a crash as well as reducing your chances of being involved in an accident. Wearing protective clothing will not only act as a shield from weather and environmental elements, but it will also protect your skin, bones and head from serious injuries. By wearing colorful and reflective clothing, you make yourself more visible to other motorists and reduce the risks of being involved in an accident in the first place.

A helmet is the single most important element that can save your life during a motorcycle crash. The leading cause of deaths in motorcycle accidents is from head injuries, and wearing a helmet can dramatically lower your chances of incurring head trauma. Washington State laws require the use of a helmet when riding a motorcycle, but make sure the helmet you buy is sanctioned by the Department of Transportation.

Protecting your eyes by wearing goggles will drastically reduce your risks of eye damage caused by debris and insects. Since motorcycles rarely have windshields, you’re more susceptible to eye injuries. Buying a helmet that comes equipped with a full face shield will also help to achieve the same amount of protection. It’s important that your goggles or visor have anti-fogging properties and are shatter resistant.

If you happen to fall off your motorcycle during an accident or otherwise, road rash is one of the most common and painful injuries that you will incur regardless of your traveling speed. Broken bones are also a major concern. By wearing a jacket and pants made from a durable material such as leather, you can greatly reduce your chance of abrasions. One thing to watch out for though is any leather clothing with chains or loose pieces that could become caught on the bike in an accident.

Gloves and footwear are also very important, though not as critical as the other items listed above. However, as long as you’re gearing up with all the other safety essentials, gloves and shoes are an easy addition. Once again, leather is the preferred material for these items given it’s long-lasting and durable nature. With gloves, you want to make sure they have a non-skid grip on the palm and boots should extend up to the lower half of the leg to protect the ankle. Sneakers and sandals won’t provide any protection during an accident, so steer clear of wearing that type of footwear when riding your motorcycle.

While all of these items will protect your head and body during an accident, they won’t prevent an accident from happening in the first place. The easiest way to avoid an accident from the get-go is by making yourself more noticeable to other drivers. Wearing brightly colored clothing that is also reflective, will make you more visible in both daytime and nighttime. You can simply add a bright vest over your jacket, or you can add bright colors to your bike and helmet for the best possible outcome.
