It's not MINI, but it is racing!

Ever hear a V16 at full chat?

Or just go to Wyvern Motorsport (BRM Appreciation club) and it'll play as the background. It's enough to make the hair stand up on your neck!

Just a fun little diversion. --Jeff

Nice link Friedduck. I play a computer game that does have the 67 BRM with the H16 and it's always nice to find more info on the cars. The game has a nice sound but not as good as that site. :smile:

Ok,....................there's gotta be a way to make my MCS exhaust sound like that. A couple of strategically placed coffee cans here and there might do it.
Too cool.

Glad you guys liked it. I love stuff like that, and constantly annoy my wife by rolling down the windows while driving to hear cars & bikes go by!

I know some one who used to drive his supercharged VR6 VW down to a tunnel about 50 miles away just so he could open his windows and appreciate the sound. A little bit too much time on his hands if you ask me.

Real Estate is pretty much at a dead stand still right now. My department will be slow slow slow until after the holidays.....I was REALLY busy last week though! (Right before Thanksgiving.)

just the opposite for me, things were slow for the past 2 months, now it's crazy trying to get things all set for meetings just after the New Year... makes for a short holiday which sucks big time
