Card description

• The pedal is to the metal and the speedometer reads 100. Breaking the speed limit? NEVER! You're zooming down the Autobahn from Berlin to Frankfurt and there IS no posted speed limit! Your Audi R8, with its 420-hp V8 engine, is an incredibly smooth ride, even at outrageous speeds!
