From first hand experience...I can tell you the Huracan ignites my brain hairs every time I drive it...doesnt have the well of torque the GT2 does, but its absolutely bonkers and totally usable...

Regarding overrevs and GT2s, Range 4 overrevs (7400-7900) are not necessarily misshifts (although, of course, they could be). In my case, they often occurred at the track on a long straight where I am trying to go really fast and shift to a higher gear as quickly as I can. I engage the clutch to shift to the higher gear but my foot isn't totally off the gas, so I rev the engine basically in neutral. (I recognize this isn't great, but it's not a misshift) The engine commonly revs into the 7000s and occasionally just around 7400.The pictures attached contain data showing this from one of my laps. This happened hundreds of hours ago (I haven't tracked the car in years). I have had zero issues.

All I am trying to say (and fair criticism, I have a horse in this race) is that R4 overrevs are absolutely not a sure sign of a misshift, and if they happened hours ago are likely a non-issue.

The Turbo overrev classifications apply to the GT2:






The "+" on this map is the location of the 7407 cycle. Right in the dead middle of the straight:

^if you only have 21 occurrences that is a very small number, 7 revolutions at that speed is nothing

That's an old piece of paper from someone else. I have 170ish R4s and 2500ish R3s.
