Does the Aurora engine exhaust note sound any different, better, worse than the current Chev blobs rolling round at the moment?
Will the engine mods affect the sound?
I hope they dont sound as good and crazy as the DJR cars for example. They are to unique.
One thing i did notice while watching the telecast yesterday was when they focused on just the two cars of Abrose and Skaife when they broke away from the pack you could really distingish the difference between the windsor of Abrose and the chev of Skaife engine notes. Especially powering out of the first corner after the main straight. The note of the pirtek car sounded awesome.
Skaife was supposed to have an all new VY with the old 18 degree engine at Darwin. I have also heasrd that HRT won't be moving to the Aurora donk in a hurry.
HRT have to be careful due to parity though, they are on the brink of copping an adjustment so its quite possible this new car has been delayed on purpose.
I have heard that HRT dont want to use the aurora donk yet, they want to wait till 2 meeting before Bathurst, so that they cant be handicaped for Bathurst. Apparently they feel its a far superior donk with heaps more mumbo, and will be much quicker around Bathurst.
I still cant believe tho that AVESCO let them run a VY with the old donk. If you have the VY, you should have to run the Aurora engine
Just my thoughts
Skaife is running a VX, converted into a VY, well that was my understanding, and in the new rules, the full Blueprint layout will not be 100% enforced for another 2 seasons away, well finish this season, start next, then wham you must run a BA, or a VY with aurora...
