6th gear - I gues you drove about 260 km/h since the 6th goes to about 275 kmh

i liked that better than wind noise.... lol when i drive my m5 i turn the radio off a great deal of the time so i can hear just what we all heard here... again not bad..

[haqeem18]

[STL30]

[Euphorica]

[GaryST220]

May I ask what microphone you used? I am looking at the V-gain mic from FastFilms.

Cheers

I just nipped to my local Maplins and bought two different mics to try out, I can't post URL's in here so just go to Maplin and search for:

Order Code: L36AL

Order Code: YW71N

The first one gave better (stereo) results but with a wind shield (also from Maplins) wrapped around it.

it sounds absolutely badass!

[jtmusa]

wow quite a different sound from the violent high howling waste noise that comes out of the rear

i still prefer the exhaust note vs the engine note, its pure extacy

i like this perspective tho :)
