Esprit V8
A very racy Esprit V8 in Dutch Supercar Challenge with the loudest and highest gearbox whine I have ever heard!

Warning to all dogs in locality!

Dunno how he can stand it for a race, must just love woopin' Marcos', 911's amongsth others.

Re: Esprit V8
Thats absolutly utterly insane!

Straight cut gears make a lot of noise at 8,000rpm though.

Re: Esprit V8
I want that tranny in my Camaro!!

It would probably be a subtle whine for the regular 2200rpm shifts for daily driving, and whoever you're racing would thing you have about 12 KB blowers under your hood
