Post Bär's Bodenplatte FW 190D-9

I have read in Manrho & Pütz, "Bodenplatte" that Heinz Bär flew a D-9 W.Nr. 205267 on this mission. This is according to his Log book and 2 other pilots of Stab Schwarm. This aircraft was so fast that he flew the mission solo and the A-9s of the Stab were barley able to catch him at full throttle. Could this aircraft be a prototype D-11? The aircraft was at Bad Lippspringe for "testing". Any info would be appreciated as I would like to do a profile for this plane for inclusion in my Luftwaffe Aces calendar for 2008. Thanks
