The sound of the transmission was cool. But you have to admit, the guy driving and the car being driven were definitely the class of the field. That was more impressive to me than the sound.
IIRC, he actually qualified first but had a tire blow out on the way back to the pits. Since he put on new tires, he was forced to start in the back. I believe he won the race.
For those who don't know, car transmission gears are helical so they are waaay more quite, what you're hearing is each individual tooth of each gear hitting thr next one on the gear it touches and that makes alot of noise in the vid, its basically spur gears like in lego sets
What a heck of a driver, first class skill right there, I love how aggressive he was even from the start, he was not taking loss as a possible outcome for sure hahaha
That's really something I don't like about modern stuff like DSG's and other computer controlled gearbox/clutches. They sound like a bloody bus' automatic transmission!
I like the blip blip downshift sound just as much as the wowowah up shift sound... Like a symphony. I could listen to this shit to fall asleep like old people with ocean sounds
It looks like this guy OWNS this circuit. As in literally owns it. Yes his car appears to be faster than most of the others, but clearly he knows every single corner and straight as well - Every single line was perfect, anticipation of what the other drivers were doing was flawless and the overtakes were pure class.
I cant believe I only found this now! The way the gearbox whine intensifies with the speed and the shifting while he destroys the field... Words cannot describe... Damn! It is so good...
I was pretty confused at first since I shift based on engine sound and the sound got loader when he shifted up. I then realized it was the titled transmission. The reverse acoustic feedback still hits hard.
@CannedCoochie I mean that usually the dominant sound in a car is the engine and it gets louder with high speeds in low gears (high rpm). But here the transmission overshadows the engine sound and the transmission gets louder when the car is faster. So you shift up accelerate and instead of hearing the expected noise reduction after the shift it just gets louder.
For everyone complaining about the sound, the signal is clipping. Microphones by their nature pick up certain frequencies better than others which makes those frequencies louder, and in this case the engine whine at higher frequencies is coming through too loud for either the mic or the audio signal to handle and it's distorting/clipping. No doubt it sounds pretty bad in the car but it sounds way worse to us.
@@surinderbhangu7807 the sounds from straight cut gears is LOUD. the video does not do it justice, but you can increase your system volume by bunch to get a feel of it. like Krebs mentioned, after a little while it gets annoying, and starts hurting fast. you might think its cool as a video or on a ride along experience and it still is, but it starts to hurt when actually driving races. be it track or rally.
@@surinderbhangu7807 People who own decent headphones ($400+) will complain about the whine. It's so shrill and piercing that I have to watch it practically muted. Your average consumer headphones/speakers will smooth out the sound and make it less harsh, due to the fact that they're less accurate at reproducing sounds.

Can we appreciate the moment at 3:07 where he provokes then catches the over-rotation to get round the corner faster. Skills to pay the bills. Also nobody appears to have told him that physics should apply to his car during corners, because the speed he is taking some of them while chasing the frontrunners is just absolutely ridiculous. AND his braking is about 10% later than everyone else! I also love those little hand gestures 😂 I wonder if the full video was ever available anywhere...
he seems to be utilizing slip angle a lot more than the other drivers. he must be very at one with his car. very phenomenal driving skills, but all around skills alone isn't all this dude has. he drives like the car is an extension of his body, making him much more confident with the turns. mans hopped on the track making it look like he went on the easy difficulty and passed what seemed like 20 cars on the first lap.
Hearing this brings me back to my 1st edition Xbox 360 with NFS Most Wanted. Once I beat the story and got the M3 back that's all I would use to drive around town and annoy cops. Loved that sound.
i always get a childlike grin on my face when i hear this a proper passionately built racing car - all about the performance and soundng like it could detonate any time!
The driver is really amasing he is like 90% of the time at his traction limit and he never have an inch of hesitation to jump in curves with full throttle even if he is already losing the back 😱😱
This is a straight-cut differential too, hence why the pitch keeps increasing constantly with speed! Other categories have only the gearbox gears as straightcut so the pitch of the whine drops back down with each shift.
I do not believe this is necessarily correct. The output shaft will of course always be increasing in RPM with speed and therefore will produce the same sound. A differential must match a pinion to a ring and you will not geometrically be able to create "straight" cut gears. Not in the sense that the tooth peeks are parallel but you could cut them to be convergent on the ring center and center-mount the pinion which could make more noise.
I've seen this video many times over the years and the sound that transmission makes just makes me smile. Amazing vehicle and amazing driving. Outclassed the entire field.

yes, the straight cut gears can handle a lot more power, however, there is a problem with them after some time. the gear heads wear off and sometimes cause a rough engagement.

yes, the straight cut gears can handle a lot more power, however, there is a problem with them after some time. the gear heads wear off and sometimes cause a rough engagement. That is if you are running 500+ HP. If you use them for a normal family car, they sound like a supercharger and probably will last a lifetime of the car.
Because of all the clowns commenting on this video:

I think I saw this clip in a meme once and I’ve been looking for it for years and I think it’s this video. Even if it’s not, I am glad that UA-cam finally graced me with these sounds and amazing driving skills.
This video is almost as old as myself.
I got this randomly recommended to me, 2023, and it was uploaded 2006.
We’ve come a long way.
Loved the video, hope ya are still goin’ strong.
0:10 can we take a moment to see how skilled that driver is he literally overtook 2 cars almost instantly he is really skilled
They both had bad starts lol.
Me trying to sleep.
That one mosquito in my room:
Also it sounds like a mad rc car.
I love that his car handles like a dream and he can drive it well so even though he’s neck and neck on the straightaways he makes up time every time he takes a turn. Excellent driving. Goes to show you speed isn’t everything.
If speed isn't everything then how is he faster in the corners than the other drivers? 0_o
@@azi9_ity taking the apex of the turn properly, having your suspension set correctly so you maximize traction and combined with a proper set of tires, you are more comfortable going into turns and carrying your speed through the turn knowing your car can handle it.
@@berkcanberk4947 oh. So speed is everything. In this case, cornering speed :P
@@azi9_ity noooo. Speed is the result of a bunch of things that come together and therefore is the end result of everything which wouldn’t exist without “everything” else that has to come together for it to happen. Are you trolling me or are you slow for a person who happens to think that “speed is everything”? Lol
@@berkcanberk4947 yeah I'm trolling. How are you?
Wow! I've never seen such polite race drivers. Nobody defended their position. And the car handled like a dream.
16 years?! My god.. this is a witness and included in the creation of UA-cam.. the pioneers of the beginning.. history in itself..
