GTR was, compared to the other vehicles, I found to be moderately quiet. Though we were situated at corners with oftern long approaches it wasn't really discernable over the other cars. But in Loaunceston on Friday night all th ecars were lining the main street, and we got to sit in the drivers seat (read - climb awkwardly over padded role cage and into tight racing street). The dash is something speacial with the big screen display. The engine was on idle and sounded sweet up close. Gave the throttle a light amount of pressure. |
