In this vid I'm using a Sony Bluetooth mic mounted on the rear license plate covered by a windsock. The pull on the front straight is a full throttle run through 3rd, 4th, and 5th up to about 145 on the fastest laps. Notice the sound on throttle lift from speed.
The exhaust system is stock with the exception of an x-pipe in place of the resonator.
The yellow Cayman is the fastest Boxster/Cayman I've ever run against.
Moe; that's right, also have there xpipe in the system. The rev sounds great but does no justice for how awsome the the exhaust sounds when your driving and shifting gears, a specially when shifting out of 3rd, 4th, and 5th gear @ 3800 rpm to 5500 rpm's. Just ask the guys that where behind me this past Sunday!

The guy made some switchable exhaust mod here like flaps or valves or something. That's why you hear two distinct sounding exhausts in the beginning and the words "activ" (German) on the screen. That video's been posted on here before. http://www.slkworld.com/slk-videos/9...-vid-clip.html
And actually, after watching that video is when I decided I must have a '55Squealin tires through 3 gears!

I made the tires spin from 0-130kmh once due to a bad start, scary never do it

The wind noise dominates the on camera mic due to the fact that you have to run with the windows open. I accidently left the remote mic off in this vid.

Cool vids & you drive well. It was surprising to see how well the SLK did in the chicanes against the Caymen & S2000s. However, you passed a 1st Gen RX-7 - that is strictly against track rules.
