TT V8 X6-High Speed/WOT Runs-CAUGHT

Sometimes its better to be lucky than good.I've been trying hard to catch a V8 X6 making some high speed runs at the Performance Center track.No luck thusfar.I've seen the V8's very few times on the track,short slow speed runs,maybe one lap or two and then gone.The couple of high speed runs I did catch,the wind noise ruined the clip.I rigged up a little wind noise baffle today.I thought no better place to test it than the area where I stand at the PC.I would shoot a few test vids to see how it worked ( wind still blowing 35 MPH).Well,well,well...... I top the berm at the place I stand and there were two V8 X6's on the track!!!!!! A Sunday afternoon no less. I've been by the PC track most weekends,hoping to catch some X6's in action,never seen the X6's out.They also pulled out a Deep Sea Blue TTV8 X6 that I've not seen around at all before today.There is still some wind noise,but MUCH MUCH better than previous clips.The clicking is the auto focus on my camera.I can say: Turn up the Volume and enjoy those big TT V8's booming around the track.Watch all 4 clips they are pretty good.Thanks! PalBay

Thanks very much! I do feel like I've spotted the Lock Ness Monster..... !!!!! Those V8's were beginning to feel like they were on the endangered species list. Thanks. PalBay

Shenard,Your going to love it.Like everything about the X6, that exhaust note sounds much better in person! The exhaust note literally boomed around the entire end of the track where I stand.It would make the hair stand up on the back of your neck.Thanks. PalBay
