The R in that first video needs more air in it's tires. If you can hear tire chatter under high-performance conditions, the tires are under-inflated. ( or is this a Perelli phenomenon with properly inflated tires ?)

Awesome! So cool you can close your eyes and identify the cars going by based on exhaust note alone, including the F-Type.

I felt the same way....

You can relate when I say as an owner of an F, watching these vids, you can almost transform yourself into the drivers seats.

Thats why we all connect with what we see here on such a visceral level. It's as if that is exactly what our cars would say to us had we asked them to speak to us on that track.

I would love to go round the Nurburgring in my F Type R, but as a passenger. Sadly I can't drive it anywhere near the level required to experience something like that behind the wheel.

I think I'd rather drive my car albeit not to try to break track records. Just cruise it. I just hate when others drive fast and I'm riding shotgun, especially in my own car.

F type is for sure one of the best factory exhaust out there!
