How would you drive a car (the Audi R8) that sits very low to the ground?

I am wondering specifically about the Audi R8 and a customized version of it, the ABT Audi R8 GTS. How would you drive these cars on the streets without scraping them up on speed bumps, driveway curbs, ramps, etc.? Would I have to get it lifted?|||Well first of all, if you have a sports car, the driver should be careful when a speedbump or curb approaches. To make it easier supercars have a noselift system, there's a way the nose can lift up so you can ride the speed bump without scratching your front air splitter. I am positive the ABT Audi R8 GTS should have one, but if it doesn't you can have one installed by Audi or just drive it carefully. If you still think you car will be damaged from the front, you can remove the front air splitter so it can get over speed bumps easily. (for track purpose put it back on)|||Considering the GTS version is a track prepped car, it isn't meant to be driven on public roads, so curbs aren't in its design. The standard R8, however, you would drive just like any low sitting car. You go over speed bumps carefully.
