Well, I ended up trading myself into an RS3, and having a ton of fun with it.
Yes the 919 was just that. De-restricted LMP1 car. 1200bhp and 50% more aero than they can run in WEC.
Apparently the 919 was set to go to Pikes Peak and take the record there as well. But Daddy stepped in and took the ball away. More than likely due to VW's need to rapidly rebuild its US image after the issues it's had over there for the last couple of years...
Dear boy, I work at Planet Eclipse, don't you know..

Haha yeah. Went with the sedan because well, there are no sport backs here, otherwise that's what I would have ordered.
Went with what they call panther black. It certain directions you get hues of deep red or a purple. Interior is red leather.
The engine itself is wonderful. Extremely happy to pull, but put her in comfort mode and it's quite easy to live with as well. Plus, whatever Audi did with their magnetic adjustable suspension is superb.
The MMI display is amazing as well. The whole car is far better built than I'm used to coming from Subaru.
400hp right now feels quite balanced for the vehicle. Actually debating if I need to add any more as it's quite simple to tune their engine up to 440 with minor changes.
If it had a manual trans option, I'd probably have one. If we got the hatchback and a manual, I'd most definitely have one.
OlllllllO
Very nice! And a very quick car! And I think the saloon shape looks really good in RS3 guise as well. Spent a bit of time with one a few months ago. Now if only they made one with the front axles disconnected....

social conservatism: the mortal fear that someone, somewhere, might be having fun.
I didn't realize just how dependent on multiple monitors I was until my PC died. Even just using my surface by itself for a day until I could get an adapter to hook up one of my other screens was painful.
On the plus side it finally got me to start building a new PC like I've been meaning to do for a while now.
I don't know, fly casual
If you're done with competitive gaming the right 4k tv is a superior monitor setup
