The sound of the Oreca isnt the real one, it sounds like they took engine notes from the Protos in FM1 like the Bentley and brought it into this game. If your going to do something halfway at least grab audio from YT vids and try and recreate it.
The sound for the ORECA 07 LMP2 does not sound accurate compared to real life. It sounds more like a Ferrari and not the Gibson V8 engine that the car features. I’ve heard it many times in person over the past 6 years and it has a unique sound compared to other race cars so if you could get a recording from the actual race car itself that would be great.

Totally agree! The car is great, the sound not!
Someone posted a breakout of the files from the pc version of the game. The audio files section contains 190 files. If these are all engine sound files. Given there are six different driving views available. That means there are only about 30 different unique engine sounds available for over 500 different vehicles. So it’s doubtful that any car has the actual audio for it’s real engine sound. And some don’t even sound like real engines,
Well that would explain a lot of why quite a few cars sound so bad! Holy Mackerel the shenanigans they must’ve done to get some random sounds, no wonder they don’t sound right. Even if it was 190 sounds that were adjusted for all 6 views on their respective cars, that’s still 310+ cars with finagled sounds from other vehicles! That’s atrocious after over 8 years of gathering new sound files (ever since the sound lead left with all his files)
