    Body work says modern endurance racer, Sound says: 70’s F1 car

      DFR was final iteration of the DFV Introduced in 1998 believe it or not and was thumping out nearly 700bhp!

      It doesnt look modern actually, i thought it was a previous gen car at first

    @mitchell-wallisforce7859 7 місяців тому +27

    "Not only did it match the 600bhp expected from the Audi engine, *like all DFVs it was not exactly the smoothest running engine. In fact it vibrated so much the car had to be phenomenally well built not to be shaken to pieces by it.* The result was a car that, once teething troubles were overcome, would run with enviable reliability throughout its career."
    I'm _wheezing._ As racing car origin stories go, there are cooler ones, more tragic ones, more technologically significant ones......but NEVER one that funny.
    But hey, look on the bright side. Not having the Audi engine in it means that THIS Speed 8 sounds far more beautifully outspoken than any other. A car closely related to twin-turbo protos you can barely hear, and yet it's one the deaf couldn't miss. Welcome back.

      - DFX:2.65 L turbocharged engine
      - DFR: 3.5 L NA engine

    Bozzy would you mind helping me out with your DM-100 setup? I just got a GX10 (Vixia here in the US) and that microphone. I tested it out on some race cars and even with the camera volume down to 15 it still clipped out. Do you have the attenuator on? How about the audio compression (Low, high, or off)? Any other pointers?
