whoops, sorry for the double post. It had been a while since I'd come to the forum.

Well, I was at Montréal, and having heard the old V10s (cranked up to almost 20k) and V8s live, I can safely say that it's NOT an issue. YES, they're CONSIDERABLY less loud, but they sound like proper race cars, and well, just, like, the future haha
For my American neighbours, I'd say they're a tad quieter than Indys (though it's been a WHILE since I last saw them live).
If you think about it, there's no real reason why the cars should be deafeningly loud.
