Thanks, yeah, it was actually the Sport Sound that I had programmed.

Expensive for sure, but uber fun.
I thought you said Taycan is utilitarian tool, only good going from point A to B and back to point A.

Does that make the Taycan go faster?

I did, and it is.

But it doesn't mean it can't also be fun.

The two are not mutually exclusive.

Most fun I've had recently on track was with a BMW X5M.

And fun doesn't mean "fastest lap times" it just means, y'know, fun.

Probably not, but I'd argue it's more involving.
Imagine a scene of a repulsorcraft speeding across the desert, but with the sound off.
