The footage from inside the GT40 during the little 'duel' between it and the Lola were very entertaining!

Some of those guys were pushing pretty hard.

Thanks for the link,

And do have a severe issue with downshifting and braking at the same time

Love this stuff
 
The guy that posted that video seems to collect racing sounds and has a lot more. Make sure to click on the Porsche 917 as well.

The Howmet turbine must have been something to drive....or pilot.
At every corner you'd have to lift early to bleed off thrust (torque) as there's no compression breaking, then apply throttle early to build thrust before exting a corner. Passing on a slower car in traffic takes planning. Again throttle has to be applied early to build thrust to pass.
Kind of like the Chevy Vega I once had. Passing a car took planning. Drop back, spot the point where it's safe to pass, floor it and run up behind the slower car, if you did it right the clear spot is right were you are, then whip on around. Fun!
