Default C6R sound on track vs Ferrari 458 Challenge

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QG1Cw...layer_embedded

Did the awesome distinctive sound of a C6R on the track have anything to do with the Ferrari 458 Challenge sounding like it does on the track. Quite different than the 430 GT2.

At 3:20 it sets off a car alarm on a city street.

Go to after 4:08 to hear sound on the track.

Wow, that dude sounds sweet. I think the patron boys got their 458's, so I'd assume RISI would too. They've been keeping it on the down-low for sure though.

WHERE can I sign up for THAT mans job!

What a blast that must be, to get paid to test drive a Ferrari around their private track.

Must suck to be him

Although I am very partial to the Ferrari Daytona, most Ferrari's are a sensual, seductive, tempting treat for the ears. My few experiences behind the wheel of Ferrari's can best be described as sexual, particularly that V12 Daytona, but I was 16 at the time my neighbor put me behind the wheel.

Still I can aford to thrash my vette, not ture of a Ferrari.
