[ttfan33]

Great video 

[Delta1music]

You built and race a 330P4.

You bastard. I am so jealous. 

[MaxieP4]

@Delta1music thanks. Some moments life throws you a double six. But I throw a load of bad dice too.

[MaxieP4]

It's real life. I have often been asked if it's a game. I take it that this is flattery. Anyway, very much real. Max

[MultiNikeman123]

Cant tell if this is real life or a game.

[Vollhirni]

Awesome driving, awesome car. Sound is just GORGEOUS. What I wouldn't give to take a seat on some fast laps in that. Thank you so much for posting. Oh, and to all those nerdy kiddos: If you show me a game that sounds and looks like that, I will buy a rig for you and for me, so we can have some fun. Anybody who doesn't realise that this is not a game is either a troll or plain stupid. Keep 'er lit, mate. More videos please!!!!

[LukeSnyderMusic]

I was leaning with every turn, sitting here at my desk. Awesome video! That engine screaming is fantastic.

[Phrase]

Awesome car Max! Would be great to see (and especially hear) some more clips of your car! If only to silence those idiots who think this is footage from a computer game LOL!

Do you ever take the car to the Festival of Speed ?

[mattheweast74]

Hi Max, tried posting on your channel but I think i'm tech-ham fisted. I note that 'Sir Stirling Moss OBE, is to be the official Patron of 2011 Chelsea AutoLegends.' so it'll be extra special. Shame we can't post links on youtube. check out conceptcarz page as a cracking resource for any buff.I tried to post a dozen videos to you.. some you probably knew like mike hawthorne's d-type lemans lap.Thanks again for the update & I'll try to get down to you for the show.Cheers Mate, Drive safely!

[MaxieP4]

@mattheweast74 my email maxwakefield@hotmail.com that maybe the best bet.

[mattheweast74]

Well done and please do more.Your car would be amazing at Goodwood Revival in the UK. i can post you some wonderful video links if you like.

[MaxieP4]

@mattheweast74 Did I reply to this? My computer is playing up. Anyway, thanks for your kind comments. It seems FRAPS is some kind of video game thing. Anyway, nice of you. The car will be at Chelsea Auto Legends on the 4th Sept> Max

[MaxieP4]

what on earth is Fraps. I recorded it with a video camera.

[ilovegoatsecks]

FAKE. did you record this with FRAPS ?

[MisterGasMan]

fan f**** tastic

[MaxieP4]

It's a game called motor racing. You buy or build a race car. Go to a circuit and test your driving skills against other drivers. In this case the track is called Killarney and it's just outside Cape Town in South Africa. You can see the famous Table Mountain in the distance.

[justforever96]

So, what game is this? ;)

[getplaning]

Love that 250LM. 

[kettler1996]

@roythersby, My Dad has a Ducati MHR and he is rebuilding it, any websites you can recomend??

[MaxieP4]

@kettler1996 yes, email me on maxwakefield@hotmail.com

[kettler1996]

@MaxieP4 Ok thanks ill tell him when i see him at the weekend.

[MaxieP4]

@kettler1996 : Yeah, what's not to like..

[ARJ54]

Hello Mr Roythersby, you still got those bits of Coke can in your carbs?!!

[roythersby]

Nearly as fast as a classic Ducati round that circuit.. at least you dont get the stupid plastic cones the organisers put down in a so called chicane so we have to slow,.. Is the chap with the red GT40 still dribbling oil?

[MaxieP4]

@roythersby Certainly a classic duke feels faster. But all that matters is coming first...  Great sound to your duke on your youtube clip. Max

[roythersby]

Nearly as fast as a classic ducati round there.. at least you dont get the stupid cones to slow us down, Is the chap with the GT40 still dribbling oil?

[bigphreaking]

A real Ferrari. One of Enzo's finest creations.

[MaxieP4]

hope you guys all come to Chelsea Auto Legends on the 5th Sept this year:

[bigbird1188]

You have managed to find high performance brake pad material (well known for being very noisy) that is remakebly quiet ! So quiet in fact that even under what must be heavy breaking on that circuit your P4 remains absolutely silent. Not a peep, squel or chirp ! How does one manage that :)

[MaxieP4]

@bigbird1188 Yes, that took a while. I had Whilwood calipers to start with, they flex a little and this caused a huge amount of noise. I now use AP calipers and they are much better.

[TexasLonghornBeasts]

i just got a ferrari330 p4 on fms3 from a dude on x box live who gave it to me free

[MaxieP4]

@TexasLonghornBeasts Yes th3b0untyhunter is right. I made the car with enormous help and input from David Piper. I suppose David must be the most respected authority on 330P4 and pretty well all matter relating to Ferrari at Le Mans in the 60s and 70s.

My car currently has an F1 motor producing 620hp. I started building it in the 1980s and it's been ongoing since then. Many of the details are original or taken from orginal patterns.

[gerico123454]

@MaxieP4 im getting a replica built :) gonna stick a v12 jag in it and yours must be a rocket ship considering how light they r :O got better power 2 wait then a F40

[MaxieP4]

@gerico123454. This has 620bhp and weighs 850kgs. So maybe even better than a Veyron.  I don't know but it's enough. M

[gerico123454]

@MaxieP4 it is =] a veyron i do belive has around 500hp per tune

[MaxieP4]

@gerico123454, well 620 at 850kg is closer to 700bhp per ton I guess

[gerico123454]

@MaxieP4 its my fav car there is only one ather car i want as bad and that a masarati birdcage

[RomanSedlak]

Ferrari V12 from that they sound better than having and orgasm :)

[MaxieP4]

@RomanSedlak  I'll take your word for that.

[turboslag]

Excellent camera angle !! That 250 sounds superb from the back !

[MaxieP4]

The camera sits on a small ally plate. it works pretty well.

[turboslag]

@MaxieP4

Gives a really good impression of speed and the sound is much

better than the usual in car stuff !! Nice one , 330 P4 is one of my all time

favourite race cars , your so lucky !!

[MaxieP4]

@turboslag Thanks. It's taken years to build, and relative to the time on a track it's quite an investment. Not for those in two minds. 

[amenasce]

Which Sn P4 is that ?

[blasfemi08]

Great camera work!

[MaxieP4]

thanks. Great car, great track, great weather, great country.

[blasfemi08]

Nice!

[Nblock487]

the camera movement dosent seem real either

[MaxieP4]

The camera is mounted an an ally plate. I think maybe if you can download a hig res you will see it looks more normal. Volts don't move and the oil pressure also won't. But it's real. 100%,

[Nblock487]

Yes I am :0, look at the clouds and lighting and textures on the dashboard they don't look totally natural, they look like GT5 or forza 2 graphics.

[MaxieP4]

I guess I can send you a better resolution film. I'm not much good this techy stuff. But I think it shows it a bit better. Or I can send you a pic head on and you can see how the camera is mounted. it's a well known car and I think you can google many more pics of it. Anyway it's a proper bit of film, sorry you think it was created inside a computer.

[Nblock487]

What video game is this? Gran Turismo 5 or Forza?

[MaxieP4]

You're not being serious are you?

[Ultegra10]

man this is better than adult time with the Mrs.!!!!!

[MaxieP4]

Can I be the judge of that?

[TheDafreak13]

that better not be a replica

[MaxieP4]

What are you racing these days Dafreak13?

[TheDafreak13]

what?

[MaxieP4]

But surely you race? Don't you?

[TheDafreak13]

thats actually funny that u ask because i race go kart. south western german championship in karting

[MaxieP4]

Great, is that like a Kart but slower?

[jdoggybizzle]

I have a ridiculously large boner now, thank you.

[MaxieP4]

Not sure how to answer that. Enjoy yourself I guess.

[louraceprep]

thats weird the resolution and the refresh rate cause this to look like a video game but impressive i love the way he flys by that green car going into the corner

[cbkspa]

Absolutely Bitching !! .... thanks... :)

[solidgold5]

Now that is how you drive the most beautiful car in the world. Amazing video, thanks!

[MaxieP4]

That's kind. Very nice of you. Max

[henicktrans]

OMFG THE SOUND!!!!!! oh MAN, the first straight he hits that thing just sings!! why cant car engines sound like that today!!!!!!!!!

[MaxieP4]

They can. They should have a V12 and open pipes. Megaphone style is even better. Alas we live in a world where any sound is scorned upon. Shame. M

[TheGuyFromBulgaria]

A Legend !!!

[imguitarguy183]

Is that a 250 GTO in front? WOW

[MaxieP4]

250 LM but a similar soundtrack.

[imguitarguy183]

what do you mean soundtrack?

[MaxieP4]

same V12 sound.

[imguitarguy183]

oh, ok.

[LPcustom76]

FANTACTIC!

[MrWizzaaa]

awesome video - nice driving, sweet engine sounds, and Piper is toast - what more could one ask for?

[sennaspeed88]

Is this a P4 replica?

[MaxieP4]

Yes, a pretty well known car too. Hope you like it.

[teslaphysics]

MMnnn... Sweet music!

[MaxieP4]

Yes, dreadful. Like killing one's parents, I should have thought it through. I'm sorry.

[MaxieP4]

thanks,

[geofftoughill]

bloody nice!

[375GTB]

There should be some 36 valve F-1 3.0 litre engines out there..... spares 7 whatnot.

Will they go to 4.0 litres?

Anything else won't sound right, no matter what...

The sound is the music.....

jcarroll330P4@

[hellraiser2nd]

Im very much looking forward to you taking me out in it. After all the nightmare of putting the new engine in etc J ADR ..

[MaxieP4]

I have changed it for a 90's Ferrari F1 engine, which has circa 620 ponies, but its also pretty light, If I ever get it working I'll be sure to update the video

[lovegt40]

holy shit what a dream! do u still have the lambo engine or did u change it with something even more powerful?
