tacker Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Spent yesterday watching the round 10 of the FIA GT car practising and i have to say these cars sound so much better than the F1 cars. Was lucky enough to get within 20 metres of the track and the sound of the corvette and the spykers is just incredible. Will post some pic later today Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/143769-fia-gt/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiplash Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 You F*%^&ing luck bastard I have been trying to get over seas to see those beats for three years now. Were there any MC12's out there? its one of the last rounds that they can race in the australian GT series will hopefully be getting bigger in the next couple of years, as well as another series but i can't say anything yet Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/143769-fia-gt/#findComment-2682924 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacker Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 Yer there is 2 of the beasties out there! Still the corvette is giving them some hurry up thats for sure. Best part is i got a padock pass so i can get up real close LOL And i swear there is a ferrari out there lapping slower that the last time i had my R32 out he is nearly 2 seconds slower them my times and about 30 seconds of the corvettes times. What the hell is he doing out there????? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/143769-fia-gt/#findComment-2682966 Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacker Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 The aston martins are just a high pitched scream as are the ferrari's. The best sounding cars are the corvette and the spykers. Have attached a few pics but best part of the day i got 2 sets of worn slicks off one of the porsche teams have only done a few laps too. V happy about that Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/143769-fia-gt/#findComment-2683483 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beer Baron Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I haven't been to an FIA GT race, but I did go to the Japanese Super GT. And the sound they made at Fuji speedway (like a big amitheatre) was just amazing. Nothing like seeing Ferrari's, Lambo's, Porsches, racing against hard tuned 350Z, NSX, Supra etc. just awesome.
