My league just went to an assigned car format and I'm stuck in the Cooper. Not the best choice for speed, but the engine sound is much less annoying, to both myself and my roomate. Don McCorkle

Ferrari. And I use the original. I guess I'm afraid to try the new ones and then I will spend two days trying to put the old ones back on! :) Mike Loos

I mainly race F2 & F3. I like to edit my own sounds. I've got a collection of about 50 of them. My favorite has to be for: F3, the Lawnmower... or the Chainsaw, for F2, I like to use the Rusted Nova. Seriously though... I mostly use a mixed version of MacWun's excellent Brabham, and a NASCAR V8 sound. Dents. PS. If you've got a sense of humor, you can find a large portion of my "custom" sounds on Mike Horton's F2/F3 Hotlaps page.

The original Ferrari sound makes me feel so good in weird places........ No further details provided * Sent from RemarQ http://www.remarq.com The Internet's Discussion Network * The fastest and easiest way to search and participate in Usenet - Free!

Once I recorded my own voice saying "pluh pluh pluh," and, for fun, used that as a car sound . On the start grid it was hilarious.

BRM, No doubt about it. The engine sound is the only reason to drive this monster. Kinda reminds me of a girl I used to know, the way it chugs along. I'll stop there.

Can't remember where I got it, but the BRM V16 sample i got for the BRM is my fav. (even tho i only drive the Ferrari myself) Lapping these monsters have become a real thrill :)) Sounds just awesome imho. -- Ed Solheim Tony StewartNo20 wrote: > People. i know this is a wired question........

If you change sampleRPM to 4200.000000 in the app.ini file, the Ferrari sounds much better. "Ace" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8c7kg5$3po$[email hidden]...

The first time I ran it, I had the sound turned way up with subwoofer and everything - hearing the Ferrari literally gave me a chill, phased the throttle just sitting there taking it all in - hairs on the back of my kneck stood up - still love that whine but I've kinda gotten spoiled on driving the Eagle, which engine sound wise I like it then I don't then I do etc. Also love the song of the BRM - just something about a big block, and that thing sounds big - if I ever figure out how to drive it fast, I could easily end up sticking with it....

<snip> If Jackie Stewart couldn't drive it *that* fast, what hope do we have?

I have a really bass-filled Ferrari sound that really makes it sound cool, my favorite would have to be the sound I am using for the Coventry/Cooper, do not know if it is the original or not, but it sounds great! I also have to agree on the BRM, it has a very distinct sound. "Is that a BRM closing on me . . ." SLG [email hidden] (Benjamin) wrote:

I thought I'd give it a try, so, I took the Ferrari for a quick spin. Decided to have a go at the Nurburgring, as there are plenty of gearshifts, and a couple of flat-out bits so I could hear what the engine sounded like under all conditions. I didn't find the engine sound changed *that* much, but it could be cos of my cheapo speakers. Upon completing the lap, I found I had done an 8:35, which is my PB in the Ferrari! I can therefore conclude the subtle engine sound change must be good for my driving :-) Thanks!

The sound of a real life racing Ferrari going by full throttle will make your pecker stand at attention!
