I like it better than the first 2! I'm biased against screen sweeps/dissolves as found in the beginning. Need to get another video or two from others to include with your footage (1/3 of each or something).

Yep, #3 better than #2.

Might be cool, with the right timing, to fade out the music and let us hear some engine/exhaust and tires...? or not... get more footage and combine in-car/out-of-car footage.

Go with a soundtrack overlay. Few cars, even the ones with great engine noises, sound good on a mike, and squealing tires are just painful. Even well-done productions like Victory by Design or any of John Frankenheimer's car films don't get a good recording by just hanging the mike out in the breeze. IIRC, for VbD, they had microphones all over the car -- in the engine bay, at the exhaust exit, in the cockpit -- so they could dub the mechanical noises in with deCadenet's commentary.

Well, there you go, Matt - download a good clip of a Ferrari V-12 being run through the gears, and dub it over your MR2!!!

Great idea, Jamie !!!

The motor in my car sounds good, but unfortunately the wind noise usually overtakes it. If we had several cameras we could do in-car/outside of car shots (that would be really cool). Maybe one on top of the car, one on the side, one inside of the car, one looking back and 4 shooting different angles from the outside. Sounds like a Tony Scott movie in the making.
Well, I'll keep getting video and if other people can get some video (either motion or pics) we can put together something really nice. :D
