What can a good mechanic hear?
Hi guys-
Thanks for your time. I'm writing a script about racing engines and I'm wondering what sort of problems a mechanic could hear just by listening to an engine run. Things that others might miss. Any ideas?

Re: What can a good mechanic hear?
The sounds of the solar winds blowing across the empty plains of Jaruli, caressing the dead bodies of the Kazon's raiding parties, felled by the hands of the Klatu warriors.
PRAISE BE TO THE KLATU WARRIORS, WORSHIPERS OF THE BLOOD GOD KU, DEMONS OF THE JARULI PLAINS!!! They can also hear damn near anything the engine is doing if so properly equipped and trained. Just be sure to use descriptive sounds when describing the problems, like, it goes Crasaaaaohhhaaaaga crsshshshssss zaaaaler creeeek when you hit the brakes. You have to use descriptive sounds so they know exactly what you are talking about I shouldn't make fun, my brakes resonate when I get on them.

Off topic, I'm not ashamed to say I can't wait to see the new F&F. It looks redonculous... but somehow good. Just classic action with explody stuff and loud noises. Plot? HA! Blow that shiz up son!
