NJMP Lightning Track Day Video

A lot of traffic and few drivers that honestly had no business in this run group. But eventually you make your way around. Oh yea that green stock car had no problem turning right lol



My clean session

That looks like a really fun track. I love the sound of your car too, did you have an external mic or another camera going for audio?

Yea track has decent elevation change and a nice cambered turn. NJMP actually has 2 separate tracks. Lightning is shorter and quicker. Thunderbolt is longer with tighter turns. Both are great to run.

Yep, have an external mic mounted few inches away from muffler. The muffler now sounds great in lower revs but can get little raspy above 4k. In middle of swapping for something quieter and deeper.

My car sounds pretty similar, low revs sound amazing then it transforms to a raspy screamer. Curious what mic you have?
