question about the noise on my gt3rs

Hi everyone:
I'm new to the forum and just got the new 2011 gt3rs . There's a noise beside the engine sound when I'm not on stepping on the clutch after a short distant of driving. I'm just wondering is that the normal sound for the gt3rs?
If anybody can help, really appreciated.

be more descriptive please. if its a rattle, my guess lightweight flywheel on RS = normal noise when idling out of gear clutch up.

im guessing it should probably be the chatter from the light weight flywheel. completely normal.

If it sounds similar to a diesel chatter and goes away when you engage your clutch, it's your LWFW.

Other noises you'll hear are the tick, tick, tick of the vacuum pump at idle. Then there's the 'braaap' sound you hear sometimes as the oil pressure comes up after starting. Then, of course, there are the occasional clouds of smoke upon starting. It's all normal

It's a stout little engine. The only thing it doesn't like is being shifted into 2nd at speeds in excess of 100 mph. (No, I didn't do it, but I know someone who did.)

Reminds me of the sound when I had the Ducati, the dry-clutch they have does the same. (Sound is awsome!)
