Yesterday’s competition to guess the mystery car was merely a dry-run to today’s puzzler, which could reward your efforts with a pair of tickets to the opening round of the FIA GT Championship at Silverstone on 2/3rd May. This time we’ve raised the bar and you will need to guess ‘two’ cars correctly.
Track 1:
Track 2:
To help you along we’ve cropped an image of each car (although we’ll not tell you which picture matches which sound).
So take a listen and send your answers over to us at competition@drivers-republic.com labelling your answers for Track1 and Track2, plus ‘Mystery Car Competition’ in the subject line. You can enter as many times as you like.
We’ll give you until next Tuesday 21st April at 12pm (GMT) to provide your answers and the winner will be announced a few days later.
Best of luck!
